The Brain Boss - Christie Newman

Meet Christie Newman, the founder of Brain Boss Coaching. With a rich background in public education spanning over 15 years, Christie has dedicated her career to nurturing the minds of students from Pre-K through middle school in New York City.. Her teaching experience is diverse, extending from classroom instruction to physical education, art, and dance.

Teaching in the arts can often be an unstructured and chaotic learning environment for students, so Christie has prioritized integrating executive functioning skills into her curriculum, helping students navigate their learning journey more effectively. As an educator who interacts with hundreds of students each year, Christie has honed her skills in catering to a variety of learning styles, ensuring each student receives the most helpful type of instruction.

Beyond her role in public education, Christie is also an adjunct faculty member at Rutgers University, where she imparts her knowledge and experience to students in the graduate school of education. She also mentors student teachers at NYU and Rutgers. 

Christie's personal journey with executive functioning skills has not been without its challenges. She understands from personal experience how overwhelming and daunting daily tasks can feel for those struggling with these skills. However, through the implementation of systems tailored to her brain's workings, Christie has found a way to navigate her days with greater ease and happiness. This personal triumph fuels her passion for helping others overcome similar challenges.

At Brain Boss Coaching, Christie brings her extensive experience, personal understanding, and passion for education to help your child master their executive functioning skills and navigate life with more confidence and ease.
