Executive Functioning Program

What is the Executive Functioning (EF) Program?

The Executive Functioning (EF) Program offers peer tutors/coaches who work with students to empower them to take control of their learning. Peer Tutors work on fundamental skills related to executive functioning, including adaptable thinking, planning, self-monitoring, self-control, working memory, time management, and organizational skills.

Schedule with an EF Tutor using the WC-Online scheduling software. You will need to create a free account to schedule with our tutors (if you have scheduled with the Writing Center or the Speaking Center, you already have an account). Please email eftutor@oberlin.edu if you have any issues logging in or scheduling an appointment.
