Brain-Based Solutions for Executive Functioning Success
Join host Peggy Ployhar on Empowering Homeschool Conversations as she welcomes Dr. Jan Bedell, a master NeuroDevelopmentalist, experienced educator, and Board Chair of SPED Homeschool. Dr. Jan’s journey began as a homeschooling mom seeking solutions for her struggling learner, leading her to discover the Neuro-Developmental Approach, which optimizes brain function for better learning. With decades of experience helping children, teens, and adults strengthen cognitive abilities without labels or medication, she has developed transformative brain-training tools and curriculums that make life and learning easier.
In this episode, Dr. Jan shares practical, brain-based strategies to improve executive functioning skills—essential for organization, focus, and self-regulation. She’ll provide insights into how parents and educators can support unique learners using techniques that stimulate brain development and unlock learning potential.
Whether you’re looking for ways to help your child manage tasks more effectively or seeking solutions to enhance cognitive growth, this conversation will equip you with actionable tools for success.
