Job Description
Executive Function Coach for High School Students (In-Person) Plato+ Redwood City, CA Job Details Part-time $85 - $100 an hour 2 hours ago Qualifications School experience ADHD treatment for children and adolescents Experience working with high schoolers Master's degree Driver's License Education Bachelor's degree Experience working with middle schoolers Working with students Organizational skills Learning disabilities support Full Job Description Plato+ delivers premium in-home tutoring and academic coaching to families across the Peninsula. Our fastest-growing practice is executive function coaching, because some of our brightest students don't just need subject support; they need help running their own academic lives: planning, prioritizing, starting, following through. That practice is led by a doctoral-level learning specialist, and demand has outgrown our capacity, so we're hiring one more genuinely great coach. Every application is read personally by our founder, a Stanford neuroscience researcher and former classroom teacher, and we interview few and hire fewer. The work One-on-one coaching with middle and high school students, mostly in their homes around Redwood City, Menlo Park, Atherton, and Woodside, with some sessions online. Many of our students have ADHD or learning differences. You'd help them build planning, organization, and study routines that actually stick: getting started, staying on track, and advocating for themselves. This is coaching, not homework supervision, and we treat it that way. Parents are on board and sessions are one-on-one. What we offer $85-100 per hour, roughly 2-3x what most school and center roles pay for this work A caseload you choose: start with 2-4 hours a week and grow if and when you want. Five weekly students is roughly $1,800-2,000 a month. Zero admin. We handle marketing, scheduling, billing, and parent logistics. Your time with students is your whole job. Families who genuinely value this work, and students matched to you thoughtfully, by a person, not an algorithm. Who tends to thrive in this role A background in special education, school psychology or counseling, learning-specialist work, or formal executive function/ADHD coaching, with graduate work in education or psychology a plus At least 2 years working directly with middle or high school students on organization, study skills, or learning support The rare combination we look for: warm enough that a skeptical teenager actually talks to you, structured enough that things change Reliable car, weekday afternoon/evening availability on the Peninsula, and the ability to pass a LiveScan background check
