Varsity Tutors understands the challenges that can come along with having a student who struggles with executive function. It could be beneficial to reach out to us to get your student started with Spokane tutoring for students who struggle with executive function. Students who have trouble with executive function often face difficulties with self-control, flexible thinking, and working memory. The skills involved with executive function enable us to plan and set goals, which ultimately leads to us being able to get things done.
When someone has a hard time with executive function, it can impact them both inside the classroom and out. This can become evident at any stage in a student's education. Executive skills typically develop in early childhood and adolescence, but they continue to develop into your twenties. Students who struggle with executive function often have difficulty understanding different points of view, prioritizing, and paying attention, among others. If your student is having a tough time with executive function, you should get them started with a Spokane tutor for students who struggle with executive function.
What topics can Spokane tutors for students who struggle with executive function cover?
There are a variety of different skills a Spokane tutor for students who struggle with executive function can cover. What they cover is partially dependent on whether your student has an Individualized Education Program (IEP) or 504 Plan. An IEP is a plan that details the type of support and services that could be beneficial for your student, whereas a 504 Plan details the accommodations your student's school is willing to provide. If your student has one of these plans, their personal mentor can use them as a basis for designing a study plan for them. In the absence of an existing plan, Spokane tutors for students who struggle with executive function can build one from the ground up.
Some of the skills a personal mentor can review include helping your student organize their thoughts, keep track of their belongings, and remember what they've read or heard. All of these skills are important for academic success so it can be useful for your student to study with an academic mentor who has experience working with students who struggle with executive function.
It can also be difficult for students who have trouble with executive function to stay focused in class. One possible workaround for this is identifying topics your student has a special interest in as they are more likely to stay focused and engaged if they are actually interested in the content being presented. Your student's personal mentor can figure out what their hobbies are and find ways to incorporate those interests into their school work.
What advantages can a Spokane tutor near me for students who struggle with executive function offer?
Spokane tutoring for students who struggle with executive function can be advantageous in a variety of different ways. One benefit is that your student receives the undivided attention of their personal mentor because they will be the only student working with them in each session. This allows them to work at their own pace, which is useful because their difficulties with executive function can cause them to fall behind in their classes.
In addition to benefiting your student, private instruction can be useful for parents. You can learn about different planning and organizing techniques that can make a big difference in your child's ability to learn. You can also find ways to make learning fun, such as using board games to assist your student with sequential thinking skills. Online study sessions are recorded so you can access them if you ever need to refer back to help your student with something.
How can I find a Spokane tutor near me for students who struggle with executive function?
Finding time to study outside of a classroom setting can represent a significant challenge. You and your student could have family, school, or work commitments that fill up most of your schedules. This doesn't mean your student can't receive the help they need because Spokane tutoring for students who struggle with executive function provides both convenience and flexibility whether you sign your student up for the online or in-person versions. You never have to concern yourself with how you're going to get your student to their sessions because they can interact with their academic mentor over video chat from any location with an Internet connection, such as from your home or from the South Hill Branch of the Spokane Public Library.
Our Live Learning Platform enables your student to communicate with their tutor over video chat while also giving them a chance to collaborate with their mentor in shared documents and a virtual whiteboard.

Session summaries by Executive Functioning tutors
The student and I had a great initial session related to coverage of microeconomics. I first provided assistance in clarifying several concepts she had read in the textbook and covered within her homework (from her study guide). Primarily, she was covering Chapter 9, which included cost analysis and behavior, marginal product, economies and diseconomies of scale, and related cost curves and calculations. She also completed an assessment and performed well. Based upon how she is performing to date, I will be providing her with recommendations to help her study and understand the concepts.

Tonight, the student and I spent our time going over imperfect markets. We started off with monopolies, working on the conditions under which they occur, and then how they decide whether to shut down or stay open in the short run. We then looked at both the short and long run equilibria for them, and how they make, lose, or do not create economic profit. We then moved on to monopolistically competitive firms, going over the same as we did for monopolies as well as comparing and contrasting their short and long run equilibria. We are going to meet tomorrow to go over market failure and to help him work on his own to predict the types of questions he may see on his final.

The student and I went through some microeconomics concepts that she had been unable to attend classes for. We reviewed an assignment that dealt with consumer and producer surplus, as well as deadweight loss calculations. She was quite confident with the work and the only areas that we needed some detailed discussion on related to the calculation of deadweight loss in the market. It was a positive discussion; we looked at some strategies for her test since the assignments mirror her test very closely, noting down important formulas and helpful ways of understanding certain concepts.

Today, we spent time reviewing the contents that may appear on the midterm. The student felt comfortable with the material. I included some test-taking skills in this session.

We went over the student's homework that covered international trade, tariffs, and welfare loss. She picked these concepts up quickly, and by the end of the session, she had a good handle on the process of solving these types of problems. I suggested trying some practice problems at home and making sure to take her time with each question to read and understand what it's asking before diving in.

I worked with the student on his financial planning midterm exam and answered any questions he had. He was able to get through all of the material with plenty of time left, showing he had an understanding of the concepts. There were a couple of calculations he needed assistance with and I was able to guide him to the right formulas.
