We don’t focus on the symptoms; we delve into the underlying causes of learning difficulties.
Learning across the curriculum is a complex task that involves multiple brain functions. To address this, we measure the strength of 16 brain functions during our assessment. We then prioritize your program to target the most critical areas first. When a person begins their program, we identify if their learning struggles are due to issues with:
- Remembering the appearance of letters or words
- Recalling a sequence of spoken words
- Controlling eye movements that cause letters on a page to appear unstable
- Distinguishing between similar-sounding words
- Blending sounds together
- Understanding the relationships between ideas or concepts
- Retaining numbers in their mind
- Interpreting non-verbal cues
Arrowsmiths approach to learning problems
These characteristics, often associated with dyslexia, ADHD, autism, and auditory processing disorder, indicate underlying cognitive areas that need strengthening. Each area can be identified, exercised, and improved. As a result, individuals can learn and function effectively in the community without relying on compensatory strategies.
By focusing on these root causes, the Arrowsmith Program provides a comprehensive solution to learning difficulties, enabling students to become more effective, confident, and independent learners. Our approach at Neufocus not only addresses current challenges but also equips individuals with the cognitive tools necessary for lifelong success.
