Children’s Learning Center – Where to Begin
The logical place to begin: your child
You will be pleasantly surprised. It may not take nearly as much time and energy as you might think to make sure your student has the learning skills needed to succeed. Yes, it will require an investment of time, energy, and money, but I want to encourage you. Help is available!
As your knowledge grows regarding what is required to become a strong learner and reader, you will discover that the investment is small compared to the costs of a student’s frustration, lost opportunity, and lowered life expectations.
Make the investment to have your child’s underlying skills evaluated and then strengthened to sharpen his or her competitive edge. Whether her cognitive skills are weak or strong, they can be dramatically improved -- and the change will delight you and your child.
What have you got to lose? Give this approach a try. Take action now!
Children’s learning center – What’s next
The first action step: Testing
I strongly recommend an initial evaluation. I urge you to have your child’s underlying cognitive skills tested. I truly wish that all children, upon entry into their first year of school and then every three years thereafter, would be screened for cognitive and processing skills problems.
If your child’s testing reveals some problems, you should place him in an intense, one-on-one cognitive skills training program right away.
The second action step: Find a cognitive skills training program
Amazingly, current clinical research reveals that strong, basic cognitive skills can be properly trained in as little as one semester! Imagine...an investment of just one semester’s training can launch your child into a lifetime of faster, easier, and more reliable learning.
Regardless of which training system you choose, make sure the instruction is intense, targeted, and one-on-one with your child. Participate fully in the training. Follow it closely. Note the results and the changes as you work with your child at home. Is it working? If not, consider another option.
Above all, enjoy watching your child blossom as he or she starts to relish learning and reading and is no longer falling behind in school.
