At Brain Enhancement Institute our goal is to raise a child’s learning ability one academic grade level each quarter.

We assess the child’s development from a neurobiological (brain function) perspective as well as from a skills set (functional..what the child can do at what level) standpoint.

We design an individualized program that creates a desire to learn within each child based on their current ability and ultimate academic potential.

We focus on developing and advancing the child’s neurodevelopment, which in turn allows academic progression.

Unlike typical classroom settings we do not keep plugging away at a skill set until we get “lucky”. And we do not move on to the next skill set level until the previous one is mastered with confidence. We also do not “back down” on the level of expectations only to boost self-esteem.

At Brain Enhancement Institute we focus on the following target areas:
Reading: decoding/phonics and comprehension
Writing: handwriting skills involving fine motor ability and motor planning, and creative writing skills with regard to cognition.
Speaking and Communication: articulation, intonation, expression, and pragmatics.
Mathematics
Spelling
Reasoning
Character Development/Personality
Organizational Skills Training
Study Habits
Learning Styles
Time Management Skills
Goal Setting
Memory Development
Note Taking
Test Taking
Stress Management
We break each of these target areas down into progressive steps from the very basics all the way to advanced levels. We use our neurodevelopment and skill set assessments to determine where to start in each target area. In other words, where the child is currently on the spectrum.

We utilize the child’s multiple intelligences to determine their specific learning styles. Using this information we tailor an academic program that will result in mastery learning and ultimately advanced learning.
