Trying to help a struggling student is baffling when we don't understand Executive Function

School becomes overwhelming for struggling students. They get stuck in a downward spiral; they fall behind, grades plummet, they try to get caught up, and they experience burnout.

Resistance becomes a growing problem, as they resist the things that could help. Patterns of excuses, procrastination, and avoidance get worse each year.

And conventional wisdom fails, as we helplessly spin our wheels trying everything we can think of to help our kids. And our efforts often backfire, and negatively impact our relationship with the kids we love. We’re at a loss. Exhausted. Baffled.

The truth is, these struggles are due to lagging Executive Function Skills, not because a child is lazy or doesn’t care.

When students build Executive Function,
things start getting better...

Students get unstuck, learn more, grades improve, more confidence, less overwhelm.

Better focus, organization, time management. More free time, more joy.

And your child has the skills to build a successful future, full of possibilities.

There's so much hope

Imagine the moment when your child lights up and says:

"Finally, I can handle school on my own!"

That’s what my work is really about: Helping students turn that massive corner, so they finally have the Executive Function skills needed to launch a bright & fulfilling future of their choosing.

And so you can breathe a sigh of relief knowing they’ll be okay!

"I had my 12-year-old attend your workshop as my birthday gift. We both really enjoyed your ideas. We tried them and there has been a great change. Thanks for being a voice to say that we all get there in different ways. Keep it up!" – Amy

Mom from Seattle

"Seth, that was a complete success. My son said “Mom, I thought this was going to be a huge waste of time and I can’t thank you enough. It feels so good.” I’ve already shared your program because no doubt other students can benefit from your tools. Thank you! :-)" – Helen

Mom from Los Angeles

"I really wish I had someone like you when I was a kid!" – Pauline, Grandmother of Senior in High School

Grandmother from Ohio

"Sarah absolutely aced this day! I'm sitting back in wonderment! She attributes her success to you! Normally, she’d be crying, frustrated, overwhelmed, and angry. Instead, she was quite calm! She took that in stride, I was so impressed with her! I said, “How does it feel?” She said, “Norma!!” Go Sara! I said, “Wow! So much executive skill went into making this day work! What enabled you to be so successful and on top of things?!” She said, “Seth!” Thank you, thank you, thank you! I’m so thrilled for her (and for me) to see her starting to take charge and function more age-appropriately in her life." - Karen A.

Mom from New Jersey

"The most impressive attribute of Seth is his steadfast dedication. He has never given up on our daughter, even when she has become overwhelmed and wanted to give up. He taught her to believe in herself. She is now graduating, and she could not have done it without him." - Bonnie, mom of college senior

HI I'm Seth

I’m Seth Perler, recovering “lazy failure” of a student, and former teacher turned Executive Function ~~Expert~~ Nerd.

I help misunderstood kids learn how awesome they are, while creating breakthroughs to help change their trajectory … for good.

I also teach parents and educators how to use my non-traditional, yet practical approach to helping kids boost their Executive Function, which is the key.

And I get it firsthand because I’ve been there myself (my story), and have helped thousands of people learn what works, despite all the outdated educational fluff out there. Grab the free toolkit and start your journey.
