Who We Help
‘Never settle for someone else’s definition of who you can be.’
— Author unknown
We understand that labels can be helpful to identify challenges when they lead to understanding. Nevertheless, we believe they should not define or place limits on those who think and do things differently! Individuals with learning, focus, or social challenges have just as much value and as many positive traits as others without these difficulties. Our students come from all walks of life and just as no two snowflakes are alike, they vary in ages, behaviors, and characteristics.
ADD & ADHD
ADDvantages Learning Center provides training to help struggling students of all ages with attention difficulties and ADHD (attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder)
Executive Functioning
Executive functioning skills are comprised of a set of cognitive processing skills which are necessary to learn, work, live, and function on a daily basis.
Learning Disabilities
The term ‘Learning disability’ is an umbrella covering specific types, as noted from the Learning Disabilities Association of America.
Autism Spectrum
The nature of cognitive training is very appealing to those on the autism spectrum, it’s highly structured, consistent, regular, repetitive, and predictable.
Homework Frustration
Does homework cause conflict in your house? Do you dread going home to yet another evening of frustration? You’re not alone!
Social Skills
It’s heartbreaking when your child doesn’t have any friends. Not being invited to parties, ignored, teased, or rejected by others doesn’t just end in childhood.
Reading Struggles
Executive Functioning and Brain Training for Struggling Readers and Dyslexia
What do you do when your child isn’t reading on grade level?
Writing Struggles
Difficulties with creating content, organization of thoughts and ideas? Writing and copying takes a longtime? We can help!
Math Struggles
Struggling math students and those with dyscalculia usually turn into adults who say they’re just bad at math. It’s a major problem that causes many to escape math in college
Processing Skills
These skills work together for learning to be enjoyable and with ease. Inefficiency in even one area can cause learning to become very difficult.
Speech & Language
Are you dealing with a communication disorder such as stuttering, impaired articulation, a language impairment, or a voice impairment that adversely affects a child’s educational performance.
Motor Skills
Do you or your child frequently bump into things, lose balance, fall, and have poor eye-hand coordination or difficulty with writing? Have you attributed those problems to clumsiness?
Non-Verbal Learning Disability
NVLD is a brain-based disorder and is believed to be a problem of processing differences in the left and right hemispheres of the brain. The main symptom is difficulties with social skills and relationships.
Home Schoolers
Are you a new home-schooler? Eager and apprehensive but not sure where to start? Maybe you’re a seasoned home-schooler, but you know your child needs something more.
College Students
By this point you’ve most likely identified the source of difficulties, are receiving accommodations, had some intervention, or your child may be on medication. College can be a rude awakening for parents and students.
Tourette’s Syndrome
It’s common for those with TS to isolate from embarrassment, rejection, and the sheer exhaustion of suppressing tics for hours to eventually be released in privacy.
Memory Decline
The good news is that there is a difference between memory decline and dementia! Not all memory loss is from medical brain diseases (Alzheimer’s and dementia).
Seniors
Are you looking for ways to keep your mind sharp as you age? We recognize that your quality of life is even more important now than ever!
Brain Injury
We know the impact and stress on sufferers and caretakers after TBI. The CDC defines a traumatic brain injury (TBI) as a disruption in the normal function of the brain caused by a bump, blow, jolt to the head, or penetrating head injury.
Chemo Brain
ADDvantages Learning understands you want your life back! All of our programs are based on scientific research and independent studies of those with various cognitive impairments.
