Developmental Learning Skills: These are basic visual and motor skills that help children develop a sense of self, internal organization, body awareness and control. There are great brain and body exercises to fix these skills!
Processing Skills: These are skills such as attention, memory, auditory and visual processing (how we think about and understand things that we see and hear), processing, language comprehension, phonemic awareness (the thinking process critical to reading). More brain exercises that increase fixing all of these skills!
Executive Function: Our personal manager that guides and directs our attention and behavior. It helps us reason, problem solve, organize and make decisions. Building more brain exercises keys in on these disorders.
That’s because how well we learn impacts every area of our life.
Including school, hobbies, sports, careers, and even everyday tasks.
If you or someone you love is struggling in school, work or life,
there’s a reason. In fact, 8 out of 10 cases’, the problem isn’t related to
motivation or quality of instruction, but how the brain is processing
the information, in other words, someone who is struggling is often
getting the information they need to excel, but the core brain skills are
struggling to grasp, remember or use the information.
If this describes you or someone you love, there’s help. Processing
and Cognitive Enhancement (PACE) is a proven approach to getting
measurable improvements in brain performance. WE train and
strengthen the brain’s core cognitive skills, making it easier to think,
read, learn, remember, and even pay attention.
When learning is difficult, many families initially turn to tutoring.
Tutoring redelivers information that wasn’t grasped the first time
around. That can be helpful if the reason wasn’t grasped was because
of missed classes or inadequate instruction.
However, if the information was delivered well the first time around,
then tutoring isn’t the solution. The solution is brain training.
Brain training doesn’t teach or reteach. It improves how the brain
grasps, remembers, and uses that information. Even better, the
improvements, the improvements are lasting. That means brain
training improves how the brain thinks, learns, and remembers, not
for a single class or academic year, but for every class and in every
area of life from now on.
PACE-THINK can identify and treat learning problems commonly
associated with the following behaviors:
Difficulty sitting still/Frequently disorganized.
Difficulty staying on task for any length of time.
Easily distracted.
Avoidance of word that seems complicated or hard.
Difficulty comprehending and remembering.
Problems sounding out words.
Written work takes a long time to complete.
Frequently frustrated when trying to complete a task or
assignment.
Makes frequent or “careless” errors.
Copying material from a book or whiteboard takes a long time.
Verbal instructions often need/or spelling.
Makes reversals, for example, confusing “was” and “saw” or the
letters “b” and “d.
If you or your child exhibits one or more of these behaviors, call today
to schedule a Cognitive Skills Assessment to evaluate core cognitive
processing skills. It’s the first step to identifying—and treating—any
weak cognitive skills that are making learning and life harder than
they need to be.
First, a comprehensive Cognitive Skills Assessment allows us to
identify any problem areas in cognitive skills. Then, we develop a
customized plan to target and strengthen those weak areas. Students
work one-to-one with a licensed/certified trainer, doing intense mental
exercises that stimulate the brain to make lasting changes in how it
performs. By working personally with each student in this manner, we
can keep the process fun and motivating, while challenging students
to work at the edge of their abilities.

Call me today to set up an appointment for a Comprehensive
Skills Assessment. Unidentified and unaddressed learning
problems can have a long-term consequence. PACE-THINK
can significantly improve weak cognitive skills.
