Director of Academic & Community Partnerships at BrainCog, LLC - Bel Air, Maryland, United States
We believe ALL individuals can learn. No two people learn the same way and no one curriculum matches the learning styles of all students. We believe understanding one's own learning style empowers an individual to adjust to a variety of different teaching styles and still master the material and succeed. We create individualized action plans that build confidence and improve motivation resulting in academic and professional success! We focus on the process of learning and organization. In order to be organized and successful at school, learners must understand how to break assignments into pieces and prioritize those pieces. By recognizing how to study and organize a strategy, learners build confidence and ultimately achieve academic success. We create independent, lifelong learners. When learners experience success, they begin to break the cycle of avoidance and failure. We "coach" learners until they have mastered the skills they need to teach themselves in any circumstance. We improve a learner's inferential and abstract thinking by connecting concepts to prior knowledge and experiences. We cultivate an effective network between you, the school, and any specialists for the greatest support of your child. At times, managing learning challenges with a number of teachers, learning resource specialists and therapists seems like a full time job! We serve as a liaison to the school, medical professionals and therapists in a way that is most beneficial to you and your child. We maintain open and consistent communication by providing our expertise and practical solutions to academic/organizational challenges.
