Tutor helping students with academic testing

Engage the Brain offers a wide range of services. If your child is struggling academically and needs support to keep up with grade-level work or close larger foundational gaps, we can assign your child to a Learning Specialist for individualized instruction. Some students may present with challenges that go beyond academic skills, such as anxiety or attention. These kinds of difficulties often impact executive functioning skills, or our ability to regulate emotions, stay organized, and manage time efficiently. We can offer executive functioning coaching to assist in these areas. We also have Speech/Language Pathologists on staff to assist students whose primary area of need may be overarching language skills. Many of the above services can be offered virtually.

If you are unsure exactly why your child is struggling or how to best support him or her, we offer formal academic testing and language testing that gives insight into how your child compares to same-age peers in different areas. This helps to identify strengths and areas of need so that we can formulate an action plan.

We also offer services to homeschool families that are looking to supplement instruction or consider a hybrid option. Students can cover different subject areas one-on-one or join group classes with our North Park Learning Group, both in person and virtually. We can assist with progress monitoring and portfolio assessments.

Furthermore, we support families in their communication with schools as they advocate for their children’s needs. We also assist schools and educators in their efforts to support students by recommending accommodations and offering workshops and trainings that address best practices for students with specific learning needs.
