Meet Casey Condon-Yu, “The Coach”

A long, long time ago (before schooldays were filled with smart phones and ChatGPT), I earned a Bachelor’s degree in Education and a Reading Endorsement from the University of Iowa. As I raised my family—with neurodivergence as a part of our everyday life—I dug a little deeper into understanding how learners thrive. Since then, I’ve continued to expand my expertise with specialized certifications in Executive Function Coaching, College Counseling, and Dyslexia Education and Advocacy, equipping me to support neurodivergent students and learners of all kinds in achieving their full potential.

Today, I’m an educator, coach, and parent passionate about helping students. Drawing on both personal insight and professional expertise, I help students develop executive function skills, build self-awareness, and take their own next steps with confidence and clarity. 


Experience & Approach
  • Supporting students 1:1 since 2014 with academic skills, executive functioning, and confidence-building strategies
  • Utilizing personalized scaffolding, task management, and “plan of attack” systems to promote independence
  • Providing assistance to students/parents with high school accommodation meetings or communicating with college student accessibility services
  • Partnering with parents and teachers to ensure consistent, aligned support across home and school
  • Skilled in providing instructional support for students with diverse learning needs

  • "Casey worked with my son this semester and I am so glad we found her. She was an extra layer [of support] especially with her experience with dyslexia and executive functioning skills. I don’t think my son would have been as successful this semester without her."

    Parent, Iowa State University

  • "I feel your understanding and willingness to adapt to each individual student only makes you better at what you do!"

    Parent, Winterset Community School District

  • "We are definitely seeing [our child’s] progress and so thankful he gets to spend time with you working each week."
