–Create milestones for projects to keep them on schedule
–Build buffer days into a project’s plan

I was a Title I tutor for over five years and have worked as an educator and private tutor since January 2020. In 2022, I began offering professional executive functioning coaching services, and I hosted a virtual executive functioning summer camp in August 2023. Nearly every learner I have taught or coached has been diagnosed with ADHD or another learning difference.

Additionally, I have completed 24 graduate credits in applied neuroscience, giving me a more in-depth understanding of the brain’s role in learning differences and executive functioning.

Homework Offered
Homework expectations for each unit are as follows:

Unit 1:
While watching the lectures, learners should complete at least one of the templates in the handout to provide an example for future projects. After watching the lectures, learners should create their own breakdown with a current or previous project, or an assignment they envision being given in the near future.

Unit 2:
Learners will add dates and notes to the example(s) they created during the previous unit. Then they will further break down their own project or create a new one, depending on what will help them most.

Unit 3:
Students should share the result of their game. Additionally, learners will further revise their project, allowing for buffer days. 

The amount of time to complete these tasks will vary for each unit and for each student. However, learners should give themselves at least an hour to create the examples from the lecture and create at least one plan of their own.

Learners demonstrate that they have completed assignments by uploading photos and/or videos to Outschool. Students may read their project milestones on video or take a picture/screenshot of their plans. Additionally, the handout lists questions that learners should answer in their videos or posts. Usually these questions are about what the learner found easy, challenging, or helpful.
