Who is Carolyn Durante?
""
Getting an Executive function tutor was recommended to me multiple times before I me before I met Carolyn. “I can just monitor her homework myself” I thought. This clearly wasn’t working.

When I began to go through my reccomendations, I talked to Carolyn and I was so glad to have found her! She talked to my daughter’s school advisor and psychologist and mapped out a plan to work with my daughter. Their sessions graduated from meeting in person once a week, to talking on the phone weekly, to biweekly checkins. Along the way my daughter learned skills to attack tasks – instead of just being frozen before them. She learned to be honest with herself about her work load and making better judgements about how to manage her time. Her grades have improved and she is much happier being in control of her life.

She learned these skills so well  - she can help her younger sister at her moments of challenge!
