Becca Kiernan is an Executive Function Coach with a Master’s degree in Elementary Education, specializing in Special Education from West Virginia University. She is a VA-licensed teacher for Elementary K-6 and Special Education K-12, with a decade of experience teaching reading and study/organizational skills in special education settings within public schools, and two years as an Executive Function Coach. Becca works with students with ADHD, Autism, Learning Disabilities, Emotional Disabilities, Intellectual Disabilities, and English Language Learners, using a neurodivergent-affirming, strengths-based approach to coaching.
Her passion for working with the neurodivergent population was sparked by growing up with two cousins with Down Syndrome, and she has seen the life-changing impact that passionate teaching can have. Becca is dedicated to making a similar difference in the lives of her students. In her free time, she enjoys bike rides, hiking local trails, and listening to live music with her family, including her two children in 2nd grade and preschool. An interesting fact about Becca is that her husband suffered a ruptured brain aneurysm in 2023, which, fortunately, did not significantly affect blood supply to his brain. His experience and recovery have deepened Becca’s knowledge of the brain and further rooted her coaching practice in neuroscience.
