Executive Function
is THE KEY to helping Struggling Students shine.
If a child of any age struggles a lot with motivation, focus, homework, getting started, follow through, organization, planning, being on time, procrastination, distractibility, remembering important details, prioritizing the important things, decision making, being responsible, managing overwhelm or emotions, or underachievement, then understanding and demystifying “Executive Function” is critical if we want to help, especially for students who resist parental help.
Parents & Teachers, welcome to your go-to resource for how to help students who struggle with the Executive Function Skills our brains use to get stuff done.
I’m Seth Perler, Executive Function & ADHD Coach, educator,
and guy who cares about seeing outside-the-box kids succeed.

HOW MY SITE HELPS YOU:
1. Parents & teachers, I’m Seth and I help struggling, outside-the-box, neurodiverse learners turn it around in a baffling system so they can launch a successful future. My blog gives you game-changing answers in a sea of misguided educational fluff.
2. Maladaptive patterns: There’s no instruction book for how to help your child navigate school & life. Traditional interventions often fail because they don’t get to the root of a child’s problems and they’re often based on misunderstanding, misinformation and outdated paradigms. Consequently, a child’s patterns get worse each year, leading to pervasive difficulties transitioning into adulthood. That’s the opposite of what education should do, and the sooner we get the facts about Executive Function, the better.
3. How to help? Parents often feel helpless, watching their child drown in school, as they spin their wheels trying to help. There’s no time for bs, life isn’t a dress rehearsal. Parents want tools that are 1) practical, 2) that demystify the problem and 3) that consider a child’s unique needs. It’s simple, but not easy.
Hint: It’s all about Executive Function (see article) and many of my students are 2e or Twice-exceptional (see article).

Testimonial
“I just wanted to thank you for being so generous to us struggling parents. About a year ago, you came into our life when my son was almost with school and social stress. We followed every step you recommend and it has, without question, salvaged his HS career. When we get off our routine we start back at step one and things ALWAYS get better. My son is doing so much better and now I need to help my daughter who is struggling with severe EF issues. We keep going back to your advice!
I JUST WANTED YOU TO KNOW HOW MUCH YOU HAVE MEANT TO THIS FAMILY!!!! I have told as many teachers and friends as I can about you!!! Thank you thank you thank you!!!!”
With the highest regards, Betty C. Newport RI
