(and a BIG SECRET)
Intelligence is fixed and can’t change.
Intelligence can be developed much more than most people think.
The cognitive skills that are the
foundation of learning are responsible
for 50% of the variability in student
achievement – and, with our help, you
can develop them!
“When you say to kids, ‘Pay attention,’ there are kids who try but don’t know how to do it. BrainWare has this ability without kids even knowing that they’re working on attention to develop some of these skills.”
“When you start watching kids on BrainWare and the skills that are being taught… as an educator, I don’t know how to teach those. We just assumed they learned those along the way, the same way we assumed that they learned responsibility along the way, but they didn’t. I did absolutely everything that I could to get more kids on the program and making the gains that we saw and we still continue to see.”
“BrainWare gave him a lot of confidence in himself that I still see and that he can learn things if he sticks with it. This program being able to help him with his confidence was everything so I couldn’t be more thrilled with the program and how it worked out.”
“BrainWare didn’t only work with Taylor. They worked with us as parents to help us use different tactics and ways of educating her so that we could see that she could compete along with her peers.”
” I started to see success and progress in daily life. I noticed that he was more attentive when I was talking to him, and he also noticed that, when he was in school, he was able to pay more attention to what was happening in class. He became a little more resilient when it came to struggles in school. After Jacoby completed the program, it was a very different experience.”
“I was looking for something to help students achieve at a higher level. We actually had a kid who completed all the levels in BrainWare in roughly a semester, and we have a second kid who’s really close. Kids like that that have just made leaps and bounds when it comes to their classroom grades.”
“I think that investing in helping your student improve their cognitive skills or executive functioning, their working memory, those are the things that help them really learn. And if you invest in that, then all the rest will come much more easily for your student. Not necessarily easy, but better. And I think by investing in that early for your student, you’re really gaining much more on your investment financially, emotionally. Your student’s not going to be frustrated nearly as much down the road, and they’re going to learn to enjoy learning and enjoy their education. So I would definitely, definitely spend the money on the front end.”
“It’s been amazing working with BrainWare. They answer all my questions regarding how it works, the process, the expectations, and how it could improve Lexi’s learning abilities.”
“I’m glad I found BrainWare, I’m glad I took the leap and trusted BrainWare, because really, the return on investment is immeasurable, and I couldn’t recommend it enough. I highly, very highly recommend it. As a parent with a child with ADHD, you understand the frustrations, you understand your worries and concerns and doubts, and BrainWare goes so far in helping to alleviate and just change the dynamic in such a positive and healthy way.”
” Investing in your kids, there’s nothing better than. The rate of return on that is phenomenal so I just know that I don’t regret it one bit. We see how far she’s come and it was well worth it, well worth the time that we put into it, and I would highly recommend this to any other parent.”
“This is the outstanding one that you want for your kids. So don’t let doubt let you decide not to let your kids have this amazing experience. 100% recommended.”
“When I asked Micah, ‘What are you getting out of the program?’ his specific words were, ‘I understand things from a different perspective.’ That was the million-dollar response. When you know a child is thinking differently, it’s an outlet for them. To them it’s ‘Well, l I know I can do this. I am important.’ It just builds up another level of confidence.”
“It’s different, like night and day compared to before she started the BrainWare program.”
“When I found BrainWare, it was actually the opposite of what most programs were pushing, which was children who are at risk. My son actually looks great on paper, but he was struggling with anxiety and perfectionism. It was always a battle to get him to do schoolwork. I found BrainWare and the rest is history.”
“If you’ve experienced issues with your child either not being able to focus, not being able to keep up with the other kids in class, or even having issues with self-confidence and in their ability in their academic performance, then you should definitely take a look at the BrainWare program.”
” Some of the changes after completing the 12 weeks that we felt made improvements were: he socially was understanding peers better, and I noticed his ability to persevere, or just keep trying, yeah—and I think there was a bit of a sense of pride when he was finished with it, even on each lesson. I do think that there are openings now that he does things himself.”
” I’m just grateful for the experience. This was something that my child needed I didn’t know it existed I knew that through education and learning all these parts of the brain that it needed strengthened and the school system was failing I felt like this was a piece of the puzzle that was very helpful for my son I’m very grateful.”
” Kaylee has done very well. I’m very impressed with BrainWare. The foundations that she needs, like the working memory, the attention, the visual, the spatial, and the verbal skills that she needs for her cognitive executive functions, she’s gained a lot of that with BrainWare, and it’s opened new doors to her learning and life.”
” I was able to release my worries about his academic struggles. The relief you provided was immense—it wasn’t just about Kekoa; it was about me letting go of my worries. Knowing that he had above-average skills according to the test results made me feel that maybe I didn’t have to worry so much about what he couldn’t do.”
“We were referred by the Center for Disabilities in South Carolina. They said that for a child with a profile like my daughter’s, with high reasoning ability, low processing speed and medium working memory, this could help her improve her processing speed. And that’s exactly what we saw.”
“What I saw almost instantly is that resilience, that persistence, but really growth mindset in an open book just revealed. That to me was just priceless; that was like a pure miracle.. That was just worth -the world already because it was making him regain his motivation, his self esteem, and really a sense of a growth mindset that you can really figure yourself out and then put yourself on a road and on the pathway of continued growth.”
“We’ve seen huge success with our son. Number one, with his self-confidence. Instead of withdrawing and shutting down, he doesn’t just shut down right away so much anymore. He’s pushing himself because he has confidence.”
” I’ve had sleepless nights, staying awake half the night thinking about how to help him and what I should do. Running across BrainWare has made a difference for him, and I feel that there are many more kids, including those in his school and others, who are struggling like this. There are professionals who don’t really know how to help these kids, but BrainWare does. BrainWare helps him where he needed support when he couldn’t find it anywhere else.”
“This is what you’ve been wanting. This is what you’ve been looking for. This is going to help. There is no downside to this. It’s worth it.” We’re here. We’ve been given these children for such a short time. to train them up, to help them become functional adults. And this is a marvelous tool. It is worth it.”
” The first thing I would ask, or rather, ask as a question, is, “Do you like to have fun?” If they answered “No,” then I would say, “I’m sorry, I can’t help you.” But no, I would hope that they would say “Yes.” If they said “Yes,” then I would say, “Then you need to try BrainWare SAFARI!” because it is a fun way to engage your brain and open up new pathways to help you learn, progress, and develop, so that you can apply these new strengths and skills to your everyday life.”
“What I’ve been very impressed with is the change in cognitive ability. The thing that [parents] notice the earliest in all of this is the children’s attention span and a diminishing in frustration. What we’re doing with the program is putting the elements that need to be put together neurologically so that the children can be successful academically.”
“I could see that my son was struggling and his memory was not where it should be. We started with speech therapy and then occupational therapy but it wasn’t really working for him. My son started BrainWare and it has been a wonderful experience for him. I can’t even put a word on it because I am very very, very happy to see the improvement with Cephas.”
“It started with my experience with my son. The bottom line is that this has been his most successful year in school ever.”
“it made differences that I never anticipated, never expected in Charlotte’s academic life and her personal life and her self-confidence, so I would say absolutely to use the program and get going as quickly as possible because it really works.”
“At the beginning of the year, he was barely writing one sentence when they were supposed to be writing paragraphs. Now he’s writing three paragraphs. He doesn’t have them perfect or to grade level, but he has come a long way from where he was.”
“It’s really hard to find programs to close the gaps in processing areas. BrainWare does a great job addressing those issues.” “It’s just real fun, when you keep learning and when you figure out you’re passing, you think, ‘I really am smart.'”
“I’ll tell you it was truly an act of the Holy Spirit. Out of nowhere I received an email announcement about a webinar about this program called BrainWare SAFARI. I said this sounds like exactly the solution I’ve been looking for.”
“It’s really hard to find programs to close the gaps in processing areas. BrainWare does a great job addressing those issues.” “It’s just real fun, when you keep learning and when you figure out you’re passing, you think, ‘I really am smart.'”
“One child was having a very difficult time remembering a set of numbers when she was trying to transpose them onto her homework paper. One day she’s doing her math and got the whole problem, on her paper. Mom went, ‘Oh my gosh! You did it!’”
“I have definitely seen more confidence in Hannah when it comes to her work, even with her schoolwork. I saw an improvement in her memory; she remembers more. It helped her with remembering things from way back. She would come up with stuff that she had done a long time ago. I have definitely seen an improvement in her memory. She tries even more with her schoolwork itself.”
“I have noticed significant improvements in both my work life and my personal life. It’s as if the cobwebs in my neural pathways have been removed and things just fall into place now. I would highly recommend for everyone – regardless of age!”
“We’ve seen improvements with every single student in some way after they’ve done BrainWare. Every kid that’s taken it, I think I can tell you unequivocally that is have affected their entire school life.”
“I’m very proud of him. I just saw so many changes—the positives in him: the confidence, the independence. Now, does any kid like to do homework? No. But with this program, I have seen the growth. We actually still use some of the software, like for his spelling now. We’re still using those things to help him continuously grow. But BrainWare has been a huge part of his positive development.”
“As a teacher, the number one thing that you want to do is you want to see that light turn on in a student and them shine brightly in all their other classes. I saw that in a number of our students; that light switch flipped for them. They got more confident, they were excited.”
As a parent, this was a great tool that was presented to me. I took the opportunity, but the most important thing to get the most out of the program was to keep reminding myself to self-regulate, to be present, to observe myself while I’m observing the kid. This way, I can leave space for the learning process and the struggles. Also, yeah, not to jump in and solve things for her, but to let her. Give yourself a chance, give your kid a chance, just do it, and you’ll see the difference.”
“Brianna was having some challenges in school. And after she completed the program, she made the honor role.” “It helped me make better decisions.” Listen to these and other comments from parents and children.
“I was the parent coach for my child, and it was challenging but also very fruitful. It really paid dividends.”
“I would say because of the way the BrainWare program is set up with the initial assessments, with working with the coach, and the post-assessment, I would encourage parents to do it. All along the way there’s support and encouragement.”
The Knowledge Center is the archive of studies, commentary, news, both serious and fun, that we encourage you to explore to learn more about how brains work, how to increase cognitive function, and how learning can become deeper and more enduring.
Cognitive skills are the foundation for learning. At the top of the chart below are the goals we have as parents and educators for our children. We want them to get as far as they can and want to academically, to get a good and satisfying job that supports them and their family, to be a healthy and a contributing member of society. The next tier depicts the focus of most schools – on reading writing, math, science, the rest of the curriculum; these days school also focus on social and emotional learning.
What most education doesn’t address is the cognitive infrastructure for learning and behavior – all the skills that our brains use to take in, understand, organize, store and retrieve information from the world around us. If the cognitive skills represented in the three bottom tiers of this chart aren’t working accurately and efficiently, learning can be a struggle.
