Lost instructional time

Executive functioning deficits are one of the biggest causes of lost instructional time. Lost assignments, disorganized desks, forgotten assignments, repeating information. The good news is you don't need to study for years to learn about supports for executive functioning. But you do need:

  • A simple, weekly course

  • Videos explaining executive functioning skills

  • Actionable steps to support students in your classroom

  • Printable PDF worksheets to brainstorm supports for your own classroom

Introducing Executive Functioning for Educators

Over the past 16 years, I have worked as an educator in both public and private school settings, working with students with a variety of learning and behavioral needs.

I have had the opportunity to present and provide professional development to educators in small groups, at international conferences, and in virtual environments.

This course takes some of the very best content from my day-long professional development sessions and breaks it down into an 8-week online course.

In less than a month, you will have an understanding of executive functioning, how it affects students in school, and how executive functioning deficits affect the learning in your classroom.

In the second month, you will be armed with actionable steps to increase supports for executive functioning so you can spend more time teaching and less time searching for missing assignments.
