Develop EF skills to find more success and free time while reducing stress.
What are EF skills?
Executive functions are a group of skills that include planning, organizing, goal setting and the like. They can be refined to bring us great success, even if they do not come to us naturally.
Who can benefit?
Everyone, of all ages, can gain more success by working on EF skills. This includes students, professionals, parents and more. Those who are neurodivergent, lack explicit EF learning, or have had a recent life change are likely to experience the greatest impact.
How do I help?
By combining well known EF strategies with self-awareness, I create a customized plan for each client based on their individual needs, strengths and weaknesses. I also include mindfullness activities, relaxation techniques and purposeful joy finding to maximize life long change.
About Brain EFfects Tutoring
Building Brains since 2001
Jacy Costa Herman has been working with children and families for over 25 years, and started learning how to promote executive functioning skills in 2001. Through studying different early childhood educational philosophies, Jacy came to understand the power EF skills have on learning, behavior and success.
A Stronger Understanding
To further build on her knowledge, Jacy received an MS in Early Childhood Development. This not only deepened her understanding of executive function skills, but also brought to the forefront the important role race and culture play in learning. Jacy works with all clients from a strength based perspective, that honors and respects individuals and their backgrounds.
