-TERA SUMPTER, MA, CCC-SLP, THE SEEDS OF LEARNING
Speaking from experience …
There are ineffective and inefficient ways to support learning challenges and executive function development …
Strategies that focus on symptoms rather than root causes—like color-coded planners or task lists that don’t address the underlying reasons your child struggles to follow through
“One-size-fits-all” programs—such as traditional tutoring or broad interventions—that leave you wondering, WHY isn’t this working? because they overlook nuanced breakdowns in skills like organizing thoughts or managing time
Reassurances that your child will “grow out of it,” even as struggles with reading fluency, homework, or basic independence persist and progress feels painfully slow
What works when nothing else seems to?
✅Addressing the root causes with approaches grounded in evidence & designed for your child’s specific challenges
✅Creating systems and strategies that build sustainable skills—so success lasts far beyond the next assignment or chore
✅Partnering with someone who understands both the science and the day-to-day struggles—because navigating this shouldn’t feel overwhelming

💡Organizing thoughts to share stories & ideas (speaking & writing)
💡Tackling schoolwork, chores, & social stuff with less frustration
💡Building the confidence to say, “I’ve got this,” in school & beyond
