Navigating Academic Hurdles and Neurological Challenges

Identifying challenges and Navigating Legal Eligibility for Support Services

Kevin was referred to us by his parents when he was in 9th grade because they had major concerns about his study habits, executive functions, and grades. Additionally, despite facing significant neurological challenges due to multiple complicated surgeries, which affected his information recall abilities, focus, and sustained attention, his school was reluctant to provide the necessary accommodations and support. 

Upon gathering all the information and meeting with the parents and their child, we took a multifaceted approach to address his unique needs. First, we worked closely with his neurologist to build a persuasive case for why he was legally eligible to receive individualized educational planning. This ensured that he would have access to the necessary support and resources within the school system.

Tailored Study Skills Development

Simultaneously, our team of experienced experts designed a personalized plan to help Kevin develop effective study skills and become an active learner. In particular, we focused on techniques such as effective note-taking, information recall strategies, and test preparation methods tailored to his learning style.

Through our creatively personalized  approach, Kevin has developed key executive functions skills in a short time. Furthermore, our coaches have helped him develop metacognitive skills, boosting his confidence and enabling him to tackle AP and honors classes without feeling overwhelmed.

The combination of our advocacy efforts and personalized coaching has yielded remarkable results for Kevin. With the accommodations in place and effective study strategies ingrained, his grades have been steadily improving. Kevin has gained a newfound confidence and resilience, empowering him to excel academically and overcome the challenges he faced.
