EBL Coaching Summer Programs
During these 2-week small group strategy building programs, students will receive individualized instructional sessions to teach them fundamental executive functioning and academic skills that are essential for academic success. Each student is initially assessed to determine their strengths, weaknesses, and levels. They work in small groups during these intensive sessions and learn research-based strategies for note taking, time management, organization, focusing, reading comprehension, and writing. Students will learn techniques including webbing, column-style note taking, outlining, brainstorming, writing, and other multi-sensory tools to help them thrive in school.
