Private executive function support in Buffalo, NY
Receive personally tailored Executive Functioning support from exceptional tutors in a one-on-one setting. We help you connect with in-home and online tutoring that offers flexible scheduling and your choice of locations.
It's can be a challenge to watch your student go through a hard time at school, but Varsity Tutors can connect you with a Buffalo tutor for students who struggle with executive function. Executive function is a term that refers to a broad range of skills related to mental function that are key to learning and self-regulation, including memory and flexible thinking. Students who struggle with executive function can have difficulty with planning, organization, and completing tasks, all of which can impact academic performance and social interactions. Working with Buffalo tutors for students who struggle with executive function can help build the skills necessary to improve in these areas.
How can a Buffalo tutor near me for students who struggle with executive function work with my student?
Executive function struggles can take on many different forms. Sometimes it looks like an inability to focus, such as is seen in students with a diagnosis of ADHD, though executive function struggles are not exclusive to those with the diagnosis. Sometimes it looks like emotional regulation challenges. Sometimes it looks like an inability to see tasks through or keep track of what task is being worked on in a given moment. These types of symptoms can manifest at any age. Working with a Buffalo tutor for students who struggle with executive function can be helpful in defining the scope of the struggles. Because these sessions take place on an individual basis, they can make custom recommendations about the best kinds of supports and interventions to address your student's unique challenges.
Your student may already have an Individual Education Plan (IEP) or 504 Plan in place at school. Their Buffalo tutor for students who struggle with executive function can use this documentation as a starting point for developing an instruction plan for your student. The information in those documents can reveal what is already known about the challenges your student is facing, what has already been attempted and to what level of success, and what efforts are currently being made in the classroom. Their private instructor can incorporate this information into their own approach to ensure consistency in the supports provided, improving the effectiveness of the instruction. They can also coordinate with your student's team at the school to ensure everyone is on the same page to the benefit of your student.
The scope of Buffalo tutoring for students who struggle with executive function is not limited to what is found in an IEP or 504 plan, of course. Support can also be provided on an assignment-specific basis, which offers distinct benefits. For instance, let's say your student has a large project coming due. Their instructor can work with them to break the project up into smaller tasks and set a schedule for completion. This can help mitigate the anxiety that often accompanies such projects for individuals with executive function challenges while simultaneously assisting your student with applying some of the tools and skills that address executive function struggles. It's also an example of how working with Buffalo tutors for students who struggle with executive function offers some of the traditional benefits of working with a conventional tutor, too.
Buffalo tutoring for students who struggle with executive function can be especially helpful in building out specific tools to address specific problems. One of the hallmark traits of executive function struggles is disorganized thinking, be it related to inflexible thought patterns, such as resistance to change or emotional volatility, or an inability to stay on task. A private instructor can introduce specific tools to address these specific types of thought patterns, such as goal planners and picture schedules to help your student keep on track better or role-playing games to help them in social interactions.
Buffalo tutors for students who struggle with executive function are thoroughly vetted to ensure they have the necessary skills and training to effectively work with your student. As a result, they can work with your student to find a tactic that works best with their specific learning style. If one technique isn't effective, they can always introduce another one. They also understand the importance of bringing parents into the process and can work with you to help you understand the tactics being used in the sessions. Each session is recorded, so you can review the instruction at your convenience to underscore the information being provided, too.

Session summaries by Executive Functioning tutors
The student and I had a great session! She successfully completed another homework assignment that focused on concepts from chapter 9 (and these included the topics of soil composition, conservation, and degradation within the U.S. and across countries, as well as farming/ agricultural techniques, farming strategies, etc. She performed very well and received a score greater than 90%. In addition, she completed a required discussion post, and also reviewed discussion posts related to her leadership class.

We completed the remainder of the ratios. The student worked through them with me and we discussed them at length. We typed out what we discussed into the document, and he was complete with his assignment at the end of the session. He simply needs to reformat a few places and can clean up any spots for spacing errors and it should be ready to turn it in. At the end session we will work on the remainder of the Excel problems for TVM. The prior topic was quite difficult and took so much time owing to the complexity of the reporting from the nonprofit accounting. We got through it all and were able to produce interesting metrics that shed light on the student's home organization.

We reviewed homework problems including Little's law, flow rate, capacity, and utilization rates. The student has great mastery of the subject, and just needs a little clarification in some areas, which I will be happy to provide. She's a joy to tutor.

I had a very good first session with this student. We covered some basic marketing concepts and definitions. We also defined what homework she is to do in order to understand this information better. She is a good listener and eager to learn.

We reviewed the student's homework assignments that she turned in and explained the omissions and mistakes, and recalculated the solutions. We went through some of the project management concepts and I sent her a link for a free MS Project software. This should allow her to enter tasks and durations and build some of the charts she needs.
