How the Program Works

Learning Independence Is Like Learning to Drive

Hover or tap each stage to see how responsibility shifts to the student.

We are not trying to manage a student’s academic life forever.

We are helping them learn how to manage it themselves.

The coach guides the process, then gradually steps back as the student becomes more capable.

Habit Formation

Good Habits Take Time

Final Step

Help Them Build a System They Can Run Themselves

Speak with an Executive Functioning Expert to identify what may be preventing the student from becoming more organized, consistent, and self-directed.

Our team will learn about the student’s situation and explain whether The Independence Program may be a good fit.
