Executive Function Coaching in Montreal for Children
What is Executive Functioning?
Executive functions are a set of processes or higher-level cognitive skills that students use daily to plan, organize, monitor actions, make decisions, and execute goals. Since executive function includes working memory, cognitive flexibility, and self-control, difficulties with these skills can make learning—both in and out of the classroom—more challenging.
Executive function coaching helps students improve their ability to manage time, initiate, organize, plan tasks, stay on track, manage impulses, shift focus, pay attention, multitask, remember details, and learn from past experiences.
How do I know if my child struggles with executive function or has an executive function disorder?
Students who struggle with executive function often have difficulty with:
- Paying attention
- Remembering information
- Organizing and planning tasks
- Time management
- Starting activities or assignments
- Focusing on one task
- Remaining calm and flexible when things don’t go as expected or when plans are changed
- Thinking creatively
These signs are common in students with ADHD or executive dysfunction. If your child shows these challenges, executive skills coaching may help provide the structure and strategies they need.
