Here at Homework in a Cafe, we strive to teach our students to be the best. However, figuring out how to be the best in school won’t be enough to succeed. Executive function coaching is a service that we offer with our tutoring to help prepare students for the real world.
What Does It Mean?
The phrase “executive functions” itself means “a set of skills”, and the coaching we provide helps develop a range of skills that help students become better prepared for their careers, such as problem-solving skills and cognitive flexibility. Diverse skill sets like these benefit students through increased confidence and improved memory.
Adapting To Different Problems
Problem-solving skills are vital for anyone to learn, no matter their age, because more often than not, everyone has to apply these skills in daily life. Whether it be school, work, or even social situations, there are bound to be problems that come up unexpectedly. Working around them and coming up with solutions that don’t deter from the final product’s quality is a skill many people lack without executive function coaching. Instilling adaptability in problem-solving at a young age will ensure success for your student.
Problem-solving skills not only help in the workplace but will also help students feel more confident in their decisions. Assertiveness is a quality that leaders possess, and with more confidence comes more opportunities, improved mental health, and a positive impact on your student’s life overall.
Cognitive Flexibility in Certain Settings
In addition to problem-solving skills, cognitive flexibility is a crucial executive function that sets hardworking students apart from their peers. Being able to quickly tune in to different situations and deal with multiple things at once without skipping a beat. It increases efficiency as well, which future employers will like.
Cognitive flexibility also helps improve memory. Having to act and react to different situations in different settings helps grow students’ brains and positively impact memory. Remembering different deadlines and assignments will keep your student engaged and consistently doing stellar in school. They will also retain information better, which will help them beneficially in work, academic, and social situations.
