About Beyond BookSmart

The nation’s leader in Executive Function coaching has been serving clients since 2006. Beyond BookSmart works with students and our WorkSmart Coaching division focuses on serving adults. Executive function coaching teaches students and adults how to organize, plan, prioritize, manage time, maintain focus, self-assess, and study efficiently. Self-management skills are increasingly important in a complex world with many distractions and competing priorities. People who learn these skills are better equipped to navigate the challenges of school and adult life. Many of our clients are bright, capable individuals in late elementary school to adults of all ages who are not achieving their potential as a result of ineffective work habits. Some have diagnoses such as ADHD or other learning differences and see coaching as excellent additional support to school-based interventions. Some of our clients have emotional challenges such as anxiety which impact their ability to work effectively. Other clients we work with have no formal diagnoses yet benefit from learning more effective ways to manage their academic or workplace demands. Our coaches work 1:1 online to help people learn how to manage their time, attention, effort, and emotions, as well as stay organized, plan and prioritize, self-advocate, and become more self-aware. Using our deep understanding of the nature of behavior change, our coaches help clients discover their own motivation to become more effective at school or at work. All of our coaches have master’s level degrees or higher (or equivalent) and have been rigorously vetted and trained, with access to over 400 tools and strategies to customize each client’s experience, according to their needs and preferences.

Nikenya is an amazing coach Nikenya is an amazing coach. She holds the space with warmth, clarity, honesty, understanding, and strength, so it feels very safe. As a coach myself, I was wowed by her technique. Even after one week of coaching with Nikenya I was becoming more confident, less reactive, and happier. It's been about four weeks now, and I feel so lucky to be able to see her each week. Thank you!!

My Granddaughter Loved Her Coach My granddaughter loved her coach and learned so much from her and, in the beginning, we saw really nice improvement. She learned lots of strategies to get started with her homework and school projects; since she was a procrastinator, this was extremely valuable. Along with the other Executive Function strategies, she was doing her homework in a timely fashion and managing her time much better. Then Covid came, school fell apart because vitual learning happened so poorly and she stopped applying what she learned. The coach always stayed connected with us by sending information on what they had worked on and what was expected from my granddaughter. She also texted my granddaughter weekly to check that she was following through. We really couldn't ask for more.

I am a parent who has an adult child… I am a parent who has an adult child with executive function disorder. He started coaching with BEYONDBOOKSMART last year. The initial intake of questions for matching the coach to the client is excellent. I see so many significant changes in my son which have been consistent. His organization and time management skills are getting better! My son loves the service and loves his coach and looks forward to each session. Thank you BEYONDBOOKSMART! I am grateful to your service!!

grateful! I got matched up with a coach I feel is a good suit for me. I'm studying in the UK and the university system runs slightly differently from the US college system especially when it comes to the course I'm doing(dentistry; we don't do pre-med here and have different exam schedules). Sarah is wonderful and has imparted some really useful tips and tricks on me so far and I hope I'll be able to improve as I go forward :) It's also nice to check in with someone who's like a wellbeing tutor every week.

A lifetime of benefits gained The executive function coaching that both our sons received from Beyond BookSmart literally changed their lives for the better. Not only did the coaching help them navigate academic and organizational challenges during their middle/high school years, it supported them in college and helped to develop skill sets for the working world and in life overall! We can't say enough about the team and the caring approach that benefited our sons. The investment in executive function coaching with BBS was invaluable. Years later, we still see it paying off, and the team is still just a phone call away if we ever need it.
