Be More Excellent University Takes the Stress out of Succeeding in School & Life
Eight days of Interactive, Virtual Learning that Produces Authentic Results Proven to Give your Child the Skills and Confidence to Get Organized, Self-Advocate, and Succeed in School & Life.
What are Executive Function Skills?
Harvard University's Center on the Developing Child reports that "Executive function and self-regulation skills are the mental processes that enable us to plan, focus attention, remember instructions, and juggle multiple tasks successfully. Just as an air traffic control system at a busy airport safely manages the arrivals and departures of many aircraft on multiple runways, the brain needs this skill set to filter distractions, prioritize tasks, set and achieve goals, and control impulses."
What your teen will get out of this Executive Functions Skills & Success Strategies Fall Seminar?
Be More Excellent Unversity's comprehensive, virtual, summer seminar guides your 6th-10th grader through a process that enables them to produce authentic work such as a 90-day plan, professional letters, final exhibition slide deck, and more. The work they do will strengthen their Executive Function Skills and immediately give them the clarity and confidence they need to get organized, self-advocate, and succeed in school and life.
Over $1000 in cash, prizes, and recognitions are awarded to the Winning Scholar for their Final Exhibitions. All students earn a Certificate of Completion BEMU wristband, and a signed copy of the co-founder's best-selling book, Don't Be Scared. Live on Purpose!
Classes are virtual and will be administered via Google Classroom and Zoom, Monday through Friday from 5-6:30 pm EST.
