Help Your Struggling Student...

Get Unstuck.

Make School Easier.

Smile More.

Hi Parents, Teachers, Coaches,

Welcome to Executive Function Lab with Seth Perler.

What if helping your complicated, struggling student was easier, more fun, and more effective?

I created EF Lab to help you save time and energy by not spinning your wheels trying to help your child, and seeing the same patterns continue.

Instead, EF Lab gives you tools that actually work.

Helping a Struggling Student is all about building "Executive Function" skills, which is the most important concept adults "should" understand, but don't.

EF Lab gives you clear step-by-step strategies that lead to wins and long term results, so you feel confident that your child is getting what they need.

Examples of Live Events

Student Event: “Hail Mary” Day: End of semester Maintenance + Study Tips: Things can completely fall apart at the last minute! Mountains of work become even more overwhelming!

Workshop for Students: How To Prioritize The Important Things Over The Fun Things When It Matters: Your brain's Executive Function also helps you "Prioritize", but sometimes we prioritize things that are fun for right now, but that can get in the way of doing the important things that are even more important for our future. So how do we manage ourselves to do the actual best things for our own well-being?
Workshop for Parents/Teachers: Strengthening Relationship With Your Child: We'll learn several relational tools for you to try with your child in the coming days, designed to open communication and build stronger connections.

Why Did I Create EF Lab?

I've been helping kids and families for decades, and I've learned what works.

I also know what doesn't work, and have seen far too many kids struggle for far too long because they remained misunderstood.

These kids are often mislabeled as: Lazy, unmotivated, procrastinator, you just need to try harder, you're making everything so difficult, you've got so much potential!

Well-intended adults try to "motivate" these kids with lectures, punishments, consequences, rewards, using logic and reason to get them to see the light, etc.

But these approaches don't give kids the Executive Function Skills they need.

Helping kids create real change is not quick and easy. It takes understanding strategies that work, time, empathy, compassion, patience, and persistence.

So that's what we do here. We have a methodology that accelerates progress, and a community of caring people who help each other gain clarity about how to actually help!

I hope you join us,
