About this provider

Do you want your student to stop procrastinating and consistently turn in their schoolwork on time?

Does your child have the executive function skills required to be a confident, happy, and independent young adult?

We help students go from "I'll do it later" to "I got it done."

Does this sound like your high school or college student:
• Engages in an endless cycle of chronic procrastination and "I'll do it later," until "later" becomes "never"
• Bright, intelligent and capable, but underachieving, especially relative to their potential
• Has assignments piling up, leading to stress, anxiety, missed deadlines and shutting down
• Lacks the skills to be independent and is falling short of their academic potential
• Feels defeated and stuck in the same pattern of behavior and results

Grayson Executive Learning (GEL) specializes in helping high school and college students successfully manage deadlines, overcome chronic procrastination, and reach their full academic potential while developing the self-regulatory skills necessary to become an independent, happy, and confident adult.

Our research-based approach successfully helps students consistently overcome procrastination and reduce the stress and overwhelm that so often leads to underachievement and failure. The behavior change model we employ produces sustainable and long-term results that continue long after services conclude and generalize to all areas of a student’s life.

GEL coaches "get" students with ADHD and the unique challenges they face. They understand the feelings of overwhelm, stress, and disappointment that so often leave students feeling like they will never be successful. GEL coaches and our scientific approach prove it doesn't have to be this way.

GEL coaches are true masters of their craft and hold either an M.A., Ed.D., or Ph.D. in education or a related field. We encourage parents to visit our website and check out our case studies and client video testimonials to learn more about what to expect from our services.

We look forward to serving you.

"Worth every last penny. Turned our C and D student to a straight A student. We knew he could do it, but he couldn’t figure out how. I can’t endorse this company and expert handling of our son more highly."

Coaching with GEL

Working with Eran was an incredibly helpful and positive experience for me. I began working with him my first year in college, and the lessons/structure he shared with me fundamentally changed the way I approached my schoolwork. Eran boosted my self-confidence and significantly diminished instances in which I felt overwhelmed by coursework. Eran helped me develop a new organizational skillset that I’ve taken with me into my post-college professional life. He held me accountable when I needed it most, and equipped me with the skills/mindset to better hold myself accountable. Not only did I see tremendous benefits both scholastically and professionally from working with Eran, but also, we remain friends to this day. Eran is someone I trust and respect, and know I can always count on to provide support and sincere input. I will always be grateful to Eran, as his impact on my life has been remarkably positive and lasting.

ADHD coaching and academics

My daughter worked with Eran during the second half of her high school experience, and I can say with confidence that he provided a pivotal and tailored form of support. She is naturally bright and motivated, but Eran helped her harness that potential through organizational techniques and a focus on self-supported executive functioning. Each week, Eran and my daughter would meet to review her progress—both what was accomplished and what wasn’t—along with setting goals and identifying obstacles. The aim was to gain a clear picture of where my daughter was at so they could meet her exactly where she needed support. Together, they created realistic, achievable plans, determining what needed to be done, how it would be prioritized, and most importantly, what would motivate and encourage her to stick to the plan. This approach was adapted week by week to fit her needs. The service was both scientific and holistic, combining logic and empathy to ensure not only weekly success but also long-term progress. I would highly recommend Eran’s services.

ADHD Coaching

I was referred to Eran Grayson by the director of the learning center at my son’s high school who couldn’t speak highly enough about Grayson Executive Learning. After having my son engage with numerous tutors and therapists over the years to help him overcome his procrastination and negative mindset towards school, I truly hate to admit it but I began to lose hope things would ever improve. This is truly something I would not wish upon anyone parent. What a great experience it has turned out to be. Eran simply knows how to communicate with my son like none of the other service providers we have ever worked with. He just gets my son and is able to reach him like I simply never can. It can be frustrating when I overhear Eran echo the same thing I might say but if it comes from mom then it just doesn’t carry nearly as much weight. I have seen a night and day improvement in my missinglate assignments, test scores, and overall grades. The best part is that my son and I get along so much better now than we did before.

Incredible support for our son!

My son had a very difficult freshman year and ultimately took a medical leave to focus on healing and getting better. His confidence took a massive nose dive and my husband and I were incredibly worried. Our son desperately wanted to return to school but he clearly needed support. Eran was amazing and knew how to speak with my son in a way that left him feeling heard while at the same time challenging him to question his beliefs that he couldn't succeed. The changes my son experienced were as plain as day and we could all see it. We are all so incredibly grateful for Eran's support.

ADHD College Student Coaching

We wish to thank you for believing in our son and inspiring him to become the student and young man he is today. Our son came to you with serious difficulties managing his transition to college. Your approach not only significantly improved our son’s grades, but also his approach towards solving everyday problems and meeting his day-to-day obligations. Your discussions on the value of commitment and the importance of doing what one says they will do obviously resonated with our son and he now has a much greater appreciation for following through on what he says. You cant even imagine how much we value that at home. Thank you for guiding our son and ourselves through a very successful sophomore year in college. We so appreciate you!

Appreciative for all that you do!

Finding support for students that are twice exceptional is not easy as most professionals are not familiar with their unique needs. My son is twice exceptional and earned very good grades through early high school when things took a turn. The chronic procrastination and missing assignments along with a resistance to study for tests resulted in a number of low grades his sophomore year. Prior to working with Eran, my son never studied for exams and saw that as a badge of honor. My son was not used to earning poor grades and when his grades eventually dropped, so did his self-esteem and confidence. Eran was amazing and was able to help my son see how he was getting in his own way without causing him to feel that something was wrong with him. Through structure and accountability with doing his schoolwork, my son’s grades significantly improved and the overwhelm and anxiety he used to have with deadlines was practically eliminated. I am so grateful for Eran’s ability to understand my son and more importantly, to help him develop the tools to be successful and have confidence in himself.

Grateful and appreciative for Eran's help!

We heard about Eran from several individuals in our community who have used his services and decided to call him when our daughter's therapist also strongly suggested we contact him. We were incredibly fortunate that he was able to fit us into his practice (which we were told is often full) as he helped our daughter successfully reintegrate into college after she took a medical leave. While we are certainly proud of her current academic performance, what we are truly grateful for is her improved confidence and the tools she has today to deal with managing her academics and life in general. We always hear our daughter echo things she talked about with Eran in their sessions; its obvious he has quite an impact on her.

Excellent outcomes and success

Working with Eran has been nothing short of amazing. My son has experienced so many victories both in school and outside of it since we started working with Eran. Covid has been so hard and my son lost so much motivation to engage with school and do his work that he kind of just fell apart. Eran not only helped a ton with the how-to of my son turning in his work on time, organizing himself, and overall improving in school, he also helped my son identify how he was getting in his own way and sabotaging his efforts. I believe it is this combination that helped my son be so successful. It’s like I have a completely different kid.

Overcoming challenges with virtual learning

Virtual learning and the stresses of COVID resulted in my daughter struggling in school like she never has before. Along with most students forced to take online classes, my daughter has paid a heavy price as she is just not engaged in this format. While Eran hasn’t made the classes more fun, he certainly helped my daughter create a highly effective structure for her to be successful again. Work is getting turned in on time and she tells me that she is relying on her studying to do well on tests as opposed to having her books and notes open to help take her tests. Her grades are better than they were before the pandemic and the best part is she feels successful. We have seen a profound change and are truly grateful.

Amazing Transition to College!

My daughter needed help transitioning into her freshman year in college after a challenging end to her senior year in high school. I was happy to see positive changes immediately after she started working with Eran to help with her schooling and living away from home for the first time. I was very impressed when she showed me her calendar with an entire semester’s deadlines already entered and a planning system she was using to keep track of her tasks. I greatly appreciated the monthly review sessions Eran, my daughter, and I held as I was kept up to date on her progress and felt very much in touch with what was going on. I believe Eran’s accountability program and action planning helped my daughter become much more independent, as she had to learn to take personal ownership over her schooling and actions in a way she never had to before. Having Eran support and mentor my daughter that first year in college was the best decision I made.

Incredibly happy with EF coaching

Working with Eran has been nothing short of life changing! There has been a night and day difference in the way I think about and approach my have-to's and the impact it has had on my life is equally a night and day difference. Eran helped me develop productivity strategies that actually work for me based on how my brain works. When one strategy or tool did not work then we worked together to make adjustments and try again. The process was certainly not easy but I truly felt Eran believed in me whenever I came up short and that helped me stick with creating change when I wanted to just give up. While not perfect, I am consistently meeting deadlines and doing so to standards I am proud of instead of completing a task last minute (or not at all) that I am ultimately not happy with. He's funny in that he will not take any credit for how far I have come but I owe Eran so much for the tremendous growth and progress I have made while working with him.

Happy to have found this gem

Eran came highly recommended by the neuropsychologist that did my daughter’s psychoed evaluation after she left school her second year in school due to medical leave. It was a difficult time to say the least. Eran was simply amazing in his approach while working with my daughter and her grades have improved significantly upon her return this last semester. While my husband and I are happy about the improved grades, we are incredibly grateful for the improvement in self-confidence she has experienced. There is obviously more to his approach than just time management and study skills, no doubt. I cant say enough about Eran’s professionalism as well as his ability to explain to my husband and I the nuances of my daughter’s challenges in a way that we could easily understand. I am a huge fan and have recommended him to several other parents whose children have struggled.

College Student Coaching

I sought out Eran because he came highly recommended for his coaching with college students with ADHD. My son was on the cusp of failing out of college and was already on academic probation. He immediately connected with Eran and is doing so much better as a result of their work together. I cant speak enough about what a relief it is knowing such a high quality individual is coaching and mentoring my son.

A very satisfied client!

I look back in disbelief that cost almost resulted in me not hiring a coach. I say “disbelief” because I am very much aware of the value I got in return from hiring Eran. I run my own small business and it was obvious my business was not doing nearly as well as it could. Poor time management, little to no advance planning, procrastination, amongst other issues stemming from my ADHD were costing me real money in lost business and opportunities. I initially hired Eran to help me improve my productivity and efficiency but I had no idea I would become personally transformed in the process. It took little time for the coaching with Eran to literally pay for itself in vastly improved productivity and follow through in my business. However, the improved confidence in myself and dramatically reduced stress and overwhelm in my life and business is absolutely priceless and I owe that to Eran.
