You will learn how to introduce your clients or students to the brain’s executive functions and explain why some brains struggle with certain tasks

Next, you will help them to develop a visual and concrete understanding of time, which begins the process of creating long-term behavior change

They will complete the program with a myriad of time-management tools targeted to support specific executive function challenges

Invaluable Information for my Coaching Practice

This course was absolutely fantastic! I have already had over 300 hours of ADHD coach training and I still learned so much from this course. The information was invaluable for myself and for my coaching practice.

This Course Helps Students Understand Their Struggles

The approach outlined in this course will be immensely valuable for my Educational Therapy students - so many individuals who struggle with executive functioning skills don't just need strategies and tools, they need an understanding of WHY they're struggling and WHY a certain approach will help address their needs. This course covers it all! Not only does it normalize their experience, removing any association they may have made with their self-worth, but it increases motivation to implement tangible action steps, and increases inspiration around what's possible for them and their life.

Now I have a Comprehensive Approach

The Seeing My Time course is excellent and will bring value to my private practice. I've studied Executive Functioning over the years, but until taking this course and using these materials did not have a comprehensive, step-by-step approach to offer. This program, and this course, provides that. I highly recommend it for anyone who works with children, young adults, and even working parents.

FAQ

Here are answers to some frequently asked questions:

Do you accept purchase orders from school districts, private schools, and public entities?

Yes, we accept purchase orders! Please send an email to info@efsuccess.info to request a W-9. 

Is Seeing My Time helpful for people with ADHD?

Yes. Dr. Russell Barkley, a premier researcher in the field of ADHD, has argued that ADHD can largely be defined as deficits in executive functioning. These deficits transfer directly into poor time-management.

The activities in the Seeing My Time® course help participants with ADHD understand their brains' executive function challenges, and how they can support their brain to get things done. The workbook was designed for the creative, visually-oriented ADHD mind.

There is no magic wand or pill to “cure” deficits in executive functioning. However, through Seeing My Time® , individuals are able to understand why they have to use external tools and then how to use effective strategies to support reaching goals and getting things done.

 

What if I would like to register multiple people from my organization?

Please contact us at info@efsuccess.info to let us know how many people you would like to register. We will follow up with next steps.

Is Seeing My Time® effective for students with learning disabilities?

Yes! Seeing My Time® is great for students with learning disabilities or head injuries. Marydee started out as a teacher and reading specialist. She designed the Seeing My Time® workbook with struggling students in mind. There are very few words on most pages which makes it "friendly" for those with reading difficulties. Participants are asked to draw their responses so they don't have to spell or worry about handwriting. Verbal instruction is backed up with visuals drawn on a whiteboard, supporting visual learners and those with working memory challenges. Many of the activities are hands-on, using flags and sticky notes to concretely "see" time, which appeals to the kinesthetic learner. Teachers, educational therapists, and tutors around the country are using Seeing My Time® materials to help LD students, middle school through college.

 

Why do you require a parent to be present during Seeing My Time® sessions?

We have found that support at home is critical in developing and mastering executive function skills in students under 18 years old. When the family participates in the courses as a unit, they are better equipped to reinforce the skills learned during these sessions. This also applies to college students or other adults living in the same household with their parent(s).

Each participant is required to have their own workbook, and will be guided on their own journey towards developing their executive function skills - parents and students alike. This allows all participants to benefit from the course, and to support one another as they move forward with their new habits.

 

So Many Choices for Different Learning Styles

When teaching Marydee's course, I told my students that this class is not a one size fits all, it's many sizes to fit one. Having many choices to reach the individual learning styles is extremely helpful! I still use many of the skillsets learned from Marydee in the EFS class. I truly believe this is what has helped me accomplish the development of my second business, Trisensory Software, LLC. Taking the Seeing My Time class provided me with the skills I desperately needed in order to make the changes happen. When the going got tough, which was often, I kept reminding myself "Little by little, Change Happens." Then I would buckle down and get just another task accomplished, and feel good about it. Thank you again for creating and supporting the Seeing My Time Program!
