    We had a very positive experience with Alissa as a tutor for our pod of 5th grade boys from January - June 2020. She cared a lot about the boys and worked hard to create meaningful activities for them. The pod experience was invaluable … More for all of our families during a difficult year and we were so grateful to have found this partnership! We also want to appreciate Craig for helping to match us with a tutor on very short notice after we had cycled through a few folks who were not able to see the commitment through. Thanks for sticking with us!
  • Avatar S CL ★★★★★ 3 years ago
    Dusty was the exact person we needed to help our child finish out the school year. So grateful to him for the way he steadily encouraged her and helped her stay on track and organized. He is flexible, responsive to our needs/schedule as … More a family, and a delight to be with. We are also thankful that Craig at Themba Tutors really "gets it" and partnered us with such a wonderful tutor who was a great fit for our girl.
  • Avatar Nicole May ★★★★★ 3 years ago
    My child worked with Gillian D virtually for math enrichment. She is an excellent teacher. She took time to understand my child's specific learning style and provided tools that would be engaging. She was kind and empathetic- really … More made it her goal to connect with my child and build trust and rapport. My child started the school year with confidence and without the typically "brain-drain" that occurs over the summer, thanks to Gillian.
  • Avatar Gillian Davidoff ★★★★★ 3 years ago
    I am going into my second year as a Themba tutor. I have met so many great individuals while working for this company. Craig and the rest of the Themba team do such an excellent job picking and choosing Themba tutors that suit each client's … More individual needs! I look forward to meeting new tutors and clients in the 2021-2022 school year!
  • Avatar carolina luttmann ★★★★★ 3 years ago
    Our son started in a new high school, 100% remote, and was really struggling with Latin and Physics. I found Themba Tudors online and had an initial call with Craig, who was very knowledgeable, responsive, and found 2 amazing tutors for … More us. Both the Latin and the physics tutors were fantastic, connected with my son really well and helped him go from 'failing' grade to 'honors'! I will for sure continue using (and recommending!) Themba Tutors. Thank you, C, K, and W!

  • Avatar Susan Wong ★★★★★ 3 years ago
    Giulia Mercuri is a great Italian tutor! She was very responsive and accessible. Giulia put a ton of effort into preparing for each session and really helped our son with test preparation and projects. We are grateful that she was able … More to help, especially since our son did not receive any live teaching during COVID. We are happy that she was referred to us!
  • Avatar Christine Gennetti ★★★★★ 3 years ago
    As an adult student diagnosed with a learning disability during grad school, I knew I needed help dealing with my Master's program's demanding workload. I was seriously considering dropping out when I was referred to Themba Tutors. … More I was paired up with a wonderful tutor, Julie, who was a total lifesaver. I learned many techniques that I can utilize in the future as I embark on the next phase of my career.
    I can wholeheartedly say after working with Themba for two years that I would not have finished my program without this organization. And I am so thankful I selected them.
  • Avatar Fabiola FITZPATRICK ★★★★★ 4 years ago
    We were introduced to a wonderful tutor: Mcedwyn. He and our son, a freshman in college, worked well together. As a result, our son’s grades significantly improved. The tutor taught our son subject content and various methods to effectively … More study for quizzes and exams. Our son was also taught time management and organization. My son’s experience with the tutor made the first year of college a less intimidating experience.
  • Avatar Jude Eugene ★★★★★ 3 years ago
    We have been with our tutor, Cailin Schiller, for two years, from 5th - 7th grade. She started as an executive functioning tutor with my daughter. From the start, she demonstrated a depth of expertise and a selective use of techniques skillfully … More adapted to my daughter’s ADHD and Math disability. Cailin made Math accessible and understandable to her in a way that even her teachers had not been able to do. She differentiated reading, writing and math tasks and assignments to tailor them to my daughter’s unique learning differences. Not only did it have an effect on her grades and her work efficiency, but she finally could do her work with less anxiety. Even my daughter’s teachers used Cailin’s guidance to modify their work with her. But most importantly, she became my daughter’s favorite resource. I can’t say how invaluable Cailin has been to my daughter’s progress and well-being. I’d recommend her a million times over. She is a gem.

  • Avatar Fara Jones ★★★★★ 5 years ago
    Themba Tutors provided a leaning specialist that was a perfect fit for my daughter. I told them what we were looking for and they delivered. Our tutor is responsive and flexible and makes it easy for my daughter to reach out to her own … More her own, which gives her an added sense of responsibility over her learning. As a therapist myself, I now regularly recommend Themba to my patients. A much needed and well provided service to the community!!
  • Avatar Frances Simpson ★★★★★ 4 years ago
    The tutors at Themba are fantastic! Caitlyn McNeill helped our son academically, but also with getting organized in every subject, which he so desperately needed. She offered great advice and useful strategies that helped our son become … More a more successful student. We are using Themba tutors again this year for our daughter. We're so happy to have been referred to them!

    Paul Smith at Themba has been an exceptional tutor for my son, both in terms of teaching the subject matter and teaching how best to approach the process of learning math and executing assignments. We feel very fortunate to be working with … More Paul.
  • Avatar Monica Alzate ★★★★★ 5 years ago
    We were very lucky to have found Edwouine Swift, my son's therapist through Themba Tutors. Thomas is 12 years old, and it is extremely difficult to get him to write. Edwouine just works her magic with him, he adores her and is so … More eager to follow her guidance. I have no doubt she will be a positive driving force in his academic future.

At Themba Tutors, we specialize in offering tailored support to college students and young professionals navigating ADHD and related learning differences. Our work as an NYC College ADHD Coach focuses on addressing executive functioning challenges, nonverbal learning disorder (NVLD), dyslexia, autism, and more—helping students build practical systems for focus, organization, time management, and independence in demanding academic and professional environments.

Being a college student in New York City offers unmatched academic, professional, and cultural opportunities. With access to global industries, diverse communities, and world-class institutions, NYC is an exciting environment for higher education.

However, for students with ADHD, the fast pace and constant demands of city life can significantly increase challenges with focus, organization, time management, and maintaining productive habits and routines.

Research shows that approximately 25% of college students have ADHD, making targeted executive function support essential for academic success and emotional well-being.

What Is ADHD Coaching for College Students?

ADHD coaching is a structured, individualized support service designed to help college students develop the executive functioning skills necessary to succeed independently.

Our ADHD coaches work with students to strengthen skills such as time management, organization, prioritization, task initiation, and sustained focus—areas that often pose challenges for college students with ADHD.

A Holistic ADHD Coaching Approach

Unlike traditional tutoring, our ADHD coaching services address the full range of academic, emotional, and life-skills challenges college students face, including specialized support for women with ADHD.

We help students build effective study skills, strengthen essential life skills, and develop a growth mindset based on Carol Dweck’s Fixed and Growth Mindsets.

Our goal is to help college students transform ADHD-related challenges into sustainable strengths that support long-term academic success and career readiness.

TESTIMONIALS

Barbara was absolutely fantastic with Lila, and we were very happy with her. Lila got accepted to her first choice, and we appreciated the help not only with her essay but also with general college questions Barbara was able to help her with.

 

-Teena M.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about working with Jake. One aspect that stood out to me was that he took the time to understand my learning style and catered our sessions towards ways that would work best for me, which I very much appreciated! Jake was so fantastic and always had a positive attitude. He helped me work on my time management skills, reading skills, and organizational skills. I valued how much he celebrated my good grades and all the little wins along the way! Jake was very flexible in terms of scheduling, which I appreciated during my hectic college life. I am so thankful I had the opportunity to work with him!!

 

-Renata P.    

We are parents of a bright college-age son who, despite his intelligence, has struggled academically because of ADHD and executive functioning challenges. After a very difficult first three semesters at college, which deeply affected his confidence and self-esteem, our son left school and, for years, was too discouraged to return, fearful of more failure. We reached out to Themba Tutors to recommend someone who could give him the support and encouragement he needed to return to school, and he was referred to Jordan W. We could not have been happier with that referral. We had no idea whether our son would be willing to work with him, but Jordan’s warm and engaging nature won him over. With Jordan’s support, guidance, and encouragement, our son went back to college! He is still a work in progress and has many challenges ahead, but we are, and will always be, grateful for Jordan’s kind and caring nature, intelligence, and extraordinary patience in helping our son move forward. Thank you, Jordan, and thank you, Themba Tutors.

Lillian is amazing and undoubtedly a large factor in the colleges Ben has been accepted to.  She has changed his whole orientation towards his academics.

Habits, Routines, and the Path to Long-Term Success

Our ADHD coaching approach is grounded in proven principles of behavior change, with a strong emphasis on building sustainable atomic habits and effective routines.

We teach college students how to build good habits and break bad habits by introducing gateway habits—small, strategic changes that create powerful ripple effects across academics and daily life.

By understanding how dopamine influences motivation and habit formation, our NYC ADHD coaches help students design reward systems that reinforce consistency, follow-through, and confidence.

Up-to-Date Resources and Technology for College Life

We integrate evidence-based tools and modern technology to support executive functioning across all areas of college life. These include planners like the ADHD planner, calendar apps such as Fantastical, and productivity platforms like Realworld.Co.

These tools support working memory, long-term goal-setting, and task management. For students who struggle with procrastination, we teach proven techniques such as the two-minute rule to initiate action and maintain momentum.

A Community of Accountability and Deep Work

When you work with Themba Tutors, your ADHD coach becomes an accountability partner. We also introduce structured focus tools like Focusmate to support deep work sessions.

Our coaches teach six ways to prime your environment for productivity, helping college students reduce distractions, optimize their workspace, and integrate non-sleep deep rest to prevent burnout.

We also use the ADHD Self-Report Scale (ASRS) for initial assessments and ongoing progress tracking, ensuring coaching evolves as measurable growth occurs.
