Planning
Turning a due date into steps, putting those steps on a calendar you’ll open and learning to set reminders that go off days before the deadline.
Executive function coaching in Maryland is weekly, one on one work for older teens, college students and adults. M G. coaches it online, statewide.
Every family starts with a free consult with Lily, and there’s no long-term contract.
An executive function coach works with you one on one on the skills that run a school week or a work week: planning, organizing, time management, getting started and following through. Executive function is the name for that mental management system, and executive function challenges show up as the missed deadline, the lost assignment and the big project that sits untouched.
The work is practical. At Lily’s Tutoring Services it’s called Hacking Your Potential, our executive functioning track, and it covers the calendar, the notes and starting the essay before the night it’s due. M G. leads it, and it can run alongside subject tutoring or on its own.
Lily describes the program as great for older teens and adults who just can’t seem to get it together and are willing to put in the work with the right support.
When the planner is full and the week still falls apart, executive function coaching works on the mechanics underneath: planning, time management, organization, getting started, follow-through and study skills.
Turning a due date into steps, putting those steps on a calendar you’ll open and learning to set reminders that go off days before the deadline.
Judging how long a task takes and when to begin it, so the evening goes where you planned it.
Keeping notes, files and assignments where you can find them. Organization and time management feed each other.
Opening the essay draft on the day it’s assigned, and making the first step small enough to take.
Staying with a plan after the first burst of effort, and picking it back up after a bad week.
Choosing what to study, how long to spend on it and how to review it before the next test.
Tick whatever fits. It isn’t a test, and nothing you tick is saved or sent.
Bring whatever you ticked to a free call with Lily. She’ll ask where your week usually breaks, and you’ll hear how weekly coaching with M G. works.
Good. Those are the details to bring.

Capable, willing to do the work and still stuck on planning? That’s who executive function coaching is for, whether you’re an older teen, a college student or an adult.
A high school schedule piles on classes, long projects and a calendar nobody hands you. Working with students at this stage means building the planner, the study routine and the habit of starting early.
Working with students who started college often means rebuilding the structure high school gave them. Nobody checks the syllabus, deadlines stack across several courses, and the study skills that carried a quiz don’t carry a semester.
Coaching with M G. is open to adults as well. Work deadlines, a household that runs on memory and a to-do list that never shrinks are all fair territory.
For students with ADHD, executive function challenges like planning and time management are often the hardest part of school, and plenty of students without ADHD find them hard too. Coaching builds skills and habits for anyone in that spot. It isn’t a diagnosis or a treatment.
Once you’ve decided to try it, executive function coaching at Lily’s Tutoring Services moves in three steps: a free consult with Lily, a one-time intake with M G. and then weekly coaching.
Every family starts here. Lily talks through what’s tripping you up and what you’ve already tried, and you ask whatever you want to know before you decide anything.
After the consult, executive function work begins with M G., who coaches online. The intake is $150 and starts the track.
Coaching then runs as recurring weekly sessions with M G., from $75 a week.
Executive function coaching costs $150 for the intake and then from $75 a week. It’s priced by the week instead of the hour, since the work is building habits across the week.

Leads our Hacking Your Potential executive functioning track for older teens and adults.
The executive function coach at Lily’s Tutoring Services is M G., who leads the Hacking Your Potential executive functioning track and coaches online.
Working with students and adults, M G. coaches planning, time management, organization and follow-through. Sessions are online, so the coaching works the same from Baltimore, Towson, Howard County or anywhere else in Maryland.
Wondering whether you need an executive function coach, a tutor or a life coach? Executive function coaches build the daily systems, a tutor helps with a subject, and a life coach often works on direction and goals. The right one depends on where you’re stuck.
A tutor helps with the math, the essay or the SAT, one on one. See our one on one tutoring in Maryland for the subjects.
Life coaching often starts from goals, values and what comes next, which suits someone who isn’t sure what they want yet.
An executive function coach works on the week itself: what goes on the calendar, when the work starts and how it gets finished. That suits someone with a clear goal and a schedule that keeps slipping.

An executive function coach works one on one with you on the skills that run a school week or a work week: planning, organizing, time management, getting started and following through. At Lily’s Tutoring Services that work is called Hacking Your Potential, and it stays practical: learning to plan the week, set reminders that go off before a deadline and start a paper days ahead of it. M G. leads it online, alongside subject tutoring or on its own.
Executive function coaching at Lily’s Tutoring Services costs $150 for the intake, then from $75 a week. Your exact rate comes up on the free consult with Lily, before anything gets booked, and there’s no long-term contract.
The executive functions are the mental skills that manage how you plan, start, organize and finish things, and no single official list exists. Short lists name three: working memory, flexible thinking and self-control. Longer lists keep going, adding planning, task initiation, sustained attention, emotional control and self-monitoring. Coaching with M G. concentrates on the everyday executive skills: planning, organization and time management, getting started, follow-through and study skills.
ADHD and executive function challenges often show up together, because planning, starting tasks and managing time are executive skills, and many students with ADHD find them the hardest part of school: the planner bought in August and never opened, the project due Friday that starts Thursday night. Plenty of people without ADHD struggle here too. For a student with ADHD, executive function coaching builds skills and habits. It isn’t a diagnosis or a treatment, and it doesn’t replace either one.
Executive function coaching at Lily’s Tutoring Services is for motivated older teens in high school, college students and adults who are willing to put in the work with the right support, whether the pile is a semester of coursework or a work inbox.
Executive function coaching isn’t tutoring, though the two work well together. A tutor helps with a subject like math or writing. Executive function coaches build the planning, time management and study skills underneath every subject, which is why a student with a slipping grade and a messy backpack might need both. Coaching with M G. can run alongside subject tutoring or on its own, and our one on one tutoring in Maryland covers the subjects.
An executive function coach works on the daily mechanics of getting things done, and life coaching often works on direction: goals, values and what comes next. The two overlap, but executive function coaching starts from the calendar, the notes and the first hour of a project, where life coaching starts from the bigger picture. If you already know what you want (the degree, the promotion, the Saturday off) and can’t make the days line up with it, an executive function coach is the better fit.
Executive function coaching with M G. is online only, so it works the same in Baltimore, Towson, Howard County or anywhere else in Maryland. In person sessions at Lily’s Tutoring Services are for subject tutoring in central Maryland, and every coaching session runs online.
Getting started with executive function coaching takes three steps: a free consult with Lily, a one-time $150 intake with M G., and then weekly coaching from $75 a week. Use the contact form or book the free consult directly. Lily reads every message herself, and the first appointment usually lands within 7 to 10 days of the consult, subject to availability.
Executive function coaching at Lily’s Tutoring Services has no long-term contract. A session you’ve already booked follows the booking and deposit policy on the tutoring prices in Maryland page, which lays out the cancellation window in full.
Yes, executive function coaching is for college students as well as high school students and adults. Students who started college often find the structure of high school is gone. Nobody asks whether you’ve started the paper, the syllabi arrive all at once, and a study routine built for quizzes cracks under midterms. M G. works with college students on planning, organization and time management.
Hacking Your Potential is the name of the executive function coaching track at Lily’s Tutoring Services, built for motivated older teens and adults who are capable and scattered. M G. leads it online, and it covers planning, time management, focus and follow-through. Families start with a free consult with Lily, and coaching then runs weekly.
