Beginner Level
*Self-paced material is being created and this course will be available soon. If you have questions, please message me.* This class helps learners build executive functioning skills related to time management including planning, task initiation, task completion, and attention. The primary focus is helping learners improve their study habits through managing their time more carefully. On Monday of each week, I will upload at least one video with a lecture explaining the week’s time...
By completing this class, students will learn to: –Choose the right times to study –Block time to improve studying efficiency –Successfully introduce new, positive habits –Pay attention to their homework or other tasks –Use a version of the Pomodoro technique to create better workflow
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
Each week, students will be given a task to complete or a tool to try. (See the Class Experience section for more information.) The amount of time to complete these tasks will vary each week and for each student. For example, students may find homework from Weeks 4, 5, and 7 easily integrates into their daily routine, needing less than an hour to complete the tasks; however, homework from the first three weeks may require more concentration and an hour or more of dedicated time. Learners demonstrate that they have completed the tasks by uploading photos and/or videos to Flip or Outschool. Additionally, learners will be given questions to answer in their videos or posts such as what they found easy, challenging, or helpful.1 - 2 hours per week outside of class

Grades Offered
Students will not receive a traditional grade for this class. However, a certificate of completion is available upon request if the student completes all required tasks, and I am happy to provide written feedback about the student's success and recommendations for next steps.
1 file available upon enrollmentEach week, at least one handout will be uploaded with instructions and/or templates for how to complete the given homework. Students may find it helpful to print the handout. Alternatively, they can type or write their answers. Additionally, learners will need access to a timer, but this could be on another electronic device.
Students are strongly encouraged to upload photos or videos of their progress to Flip or the Outschool classroom. For example, students will be asked to share a picture or video of their time blocking sheet or calendar. Not only does showing progress build community between students, but it also helps students better visualize their accomplishments. Although photos and videos are encouraged, students do not need to show their face on camera or voice if it makes them uncomfortable. Students should never share personal information, which includes any sensitive information that might be in their study area. If I notice personal information, I will remove the video, but please speak to your learner if you have any reservations about what they might share.
The more scientific information from the Week 1 lectures is primarily sourced from “There is more to chronotypes than larks and owls. evidence of two additional chronotypes in humans from a large scale community-based survey” (Mairesse et al., 2019). (https://www.researchgate.net/publication/337958849_There_is_more_to_chronotypes_than_larks_and_owls_evidence_of_two_additional_chronotypes_in_humans_from_a_large_scale_community-based_survey) Some of the information presented in Week 2 is based on Chapter 3 of “College Success” published by Rice University (Baldwin et al., 2023). (https://openstax.org/details/books/college-success) For Week 5, a variety of videos by Dan Simons will be available: –TED Talk “Seeing the World as It Isn’t” (2011) (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Il_D3Xt9W0) –Selective Attention Test (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJG698U2Mvo) –Movie Perception Test 1 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wBoMjORwA-4) –Movie Perception Test 2 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6JONMYxaZ_s) –The Door Study (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FWSxSQsspiQ)
I am a strong believer in project-based learning, especially with books. Therefore, most of my classes mix reading, discussions, and hands-on activities. I tend to avoid worksheets, vocabulary quizzes, and traditional lesson plans. I hold a B.S....
