La Jolla LearningWorks’ Executive Function 1:1 Coaching Programs can help!
Executive function refers to processes in the brain that control behavior and enable us to get things done effectively and efficiently. They are high-level cognitive functions that help us decide what activities or tasks we will pay attention to and choose to do. Through the use of these skills, we can plan and organize activities, sustain attention, and persist to complete a task or reach a goal.
Program Overview:
Our one-on-one executive function training helps students build competency in their specific areas of weakness. By learning first about their brains and then about specific strategies, students implement brain-friendly, external, visual tools to strengthen executive functioning weaknesses. With this approach our students gain a sense of control and find success in school, work, and personal life.
Since executive functioning is a set of complex, higher order skills, generalizing those skills takes time and reinforcement from all angles. To get the most out of our Executive Functioning program, we encourage parents to communicate with teachers and use our supplemental materials to check in with their child at home. With consistent collaboration and communication, we see students thrive and start to take ownership of their learning.
