ACADEMIC COACHING FOR LEARNING DIFFERENCES

Children who think and learn differently.

 

Children with learning differences often come to us for coaching, many of them with a diagnosis like ADHD or Dyslexia.

 

These learners are smart yet struggling with specific aspects of their academic journeys, despite usually already receiving some sort of assistance.

 

When a learner attends school (or receive academic teaching like homeschooling or online schooling) on a regular basis, receives additional tutoring, spends an extraordinary amount of time on studying, regularly tries out yet another study method - and is still not performing academically - it is time for a new approach.

​

What is then required is not more tutoring, extra classes, another study method or working harder. What's required, is identifying which skills are weak (and thus causing the frustration or struggle), so they can be strengthened.

​

We passionately believe that every learner should be enabled to claim their independence as a learner, which is why our development programs for children with learning differences are based on the principle of neuroplasticity -

harnessing the ability of the brain to form and reorganize synaptic connections, especially when supported by a focused, intense and sequenced cognitive skills development program and individual academic coaching on how to practically apply strengthened skills.​
