Notice that in 2001 before therapy, her lowest score was 5, "borderline MR" (language of the day - today we call MR Intellectually Disabled). Her highest score was 14. Two years later, her lowest score was 10 - Average - and her highest was 16 - Superior. Wow - yes, IQ actually changed!! By a lot! Anecdotally, she left all remedial classes, went to college with no accommodations or tutors, graduated with over a 3.0 cum while opening an art gallery and holding down 2 other part-time jobs. It took a lot of work for her tog to this point, but according to her it was worth it.

 

She was the reason I got started in this business. I did not deliver all of the therapies, but I learned what I could and continue to use outside professionals for what I cannot do.

 

Below are the results from coaches who trained in the Brain Advancement Coaching program. More information at www.brainadvancementteam.com. The numbers represent percentiles: 50th percentile is average.

 

 

RK, age 35, went from 16th percentile in processing speed to 49th percentile in 4 months, one hour a day, 5 days a week! This is actually very typical.

 

Below are the scores from several of my clients from different walks of life. All scores are "age-equivalent", and calculations are based on averages from people of the same age.

Let me leave you today with a quote from Mark Kelley, Gabby Gifford's husband:

"Optimism is a form of healing and hope is a form of love." Let's all give those who have learning struggles optimism and hope!
