Executive Function Coaching for New York Students

From honors and AP course loads at Mamaroneck, Scarsdale, Rye, White Plains, and Fox Lane to the demands of Manhattan independent schools, New York students carry serious workloads across multiple platforms and packed schedules. Executive function coaching builds the skills those workloads demand: organization, time management, planning and prioritization, task initiation, study strategies, and self-advocacy. Coaches work alongside each student with their real materials, building scaffolding designed to come down as independence grows. Families who also need subject support can pair coaching with academic tutoring; we also support college students and adults. Manhattan families can also explore our academic tutoring in Manhattan, ISEE and SSAT tutoring in Manhattan, and executive function coaching for college students in Manhattan.

Why New York Families Choose DES

Founded in 2009 by Aron Boxer, M.Ed., S.P.E., a former special education teacher and Director of Special Services and member of the Forbes Coaches Council, DES pairs genuine credentials with a relationship-first, in-home model.

“Thank you, Aron, for the executive function tutoring and life skills you taught my son. We still hear your teachings coming through years later. We are so grateful for everything you did to help him.”
