Can’t I just be my child’s executive function coach?
As a parent, you control many aspects of your student’s life – where they live, what they eat, their curfew, etc. This unequal power dynamic can make your student very sensitive to your feedback. By having an objective professional help them with the challenges of school, it can free up space to focus on building a healthy dynamic with your student.
However, if you do want to try implementing these techniques with your student, we suggest going through this free course on how to build executive function skills.
