Executive Function Lab with Seth Perler

Welcome from your Executive Function Coach, Seth Perler! 

EF LAB is a phenomenal online community, where I coach people on how to get game-changing results with students who have Executive Function challenges.

Its' designed to give you great TOOLS you can start using now, and plenty of small, easy WINS on a regular basis. Stacking small wins is HOW we create BIG change!

EF LAB brings together like-minded Parents & Educators, who are dedicated to helping complicated struggling students learn to navigate school and life, so they can have a great quality of life now, and a fantastic future, full of possibilities, choices, and opportunities, where they can achieve their goals, develop their strengths, and contribute in ways that matter to them.

We're a tight-knit community of compassionate, proactive, and involved people who support each other in helping students, to develop personalized strategies that work, so that we can empower students to overcome their EF struggles.

And we're 100% private. No social media drama, trolls, ads, or distractions. Just real people who care about helping kids, without the bs.

Psst... It's all about "Executive Function", which is THE most important concept adults "should" understand, but don't.

Why Seth Created 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 were misunderstood. These kids were often mislabeled as:

Lazy, unmotivated, procrastinator, you just need to try harder, you're making everything so difficult, you've got so much potential!

These 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 none of these interventions gave kids the Executive Function SKILLS they needed.

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

And after many years of helping kids, I know this: Being a part the right supportive community is the best way to accelerate progress. That's what we do here. We have a methodology that works, a community of people who support each other to have CLARITY about the critical nuances needed to help, genuine encouragement for each other, and massive amounts of hope!

I hope you'll join us today!
