Dr. Jerry Goodman The attitude I have seen and heard from students is, “I can be successful; I can do things now that before I would just walk away from.” When you see gaps in learning, this program allows students to go back and close those gaps in learning and fill them in. Chuck McLean Learn To Learn represents a quantum leap forward to brain based learning and cognitive science. Through simple physical exercises, the actual neuron linkages in the brain are affected thus providing an improved coupling with the in material “mind” of the psychologist. What we have here is an actual method for improving our brains. Thus refuting those who believe that “brain based intelligence” is fixed. When the Learn To Learn method is supplemented by various cognitive sciences’ practices and utilized with the developmental assessments provided by Learn To Learn, a gestalt results that improves learning at what I would guess to be at an exponential rate. This is a must for all schools systems. Robert Cole Traditional remedial education programs rarely diagnose the problems associated with learning abilities, but rather concentrate almost exclusively on trying to impart academic skills about “teaching around” disabilities. Assessment is the key to making a diagnosis that leads to effective treatment. I agree with Dr. Jim Fadigan at Learn To Learn that if students are to learn effectively, they must develop the requisite abilities that enable them to receive, process and act upon the wide rage of information they encounter. The Learn To Learn Program is an outstanding program. I believe it would be a valuable tool for any student or adult to utilize in their lifelong quest for “learning how to learn.” Dr. Alan Smolowe "After only one semester of implementation, teachers, parents and students agree that Learn To Learn has been the district's best investment”. This program is a must for every learner. L2Learn is the answer to the number one challenge in our public schools. Dr. Elizabeth Lewin As Principal and Site Director, I have implemented the full Learn To Learn program in two schools. I am extremely impressed with the comprehensive, deliverable program that has been designed and implemented by Learn To Learn. I have personally witnessed major improvement among students as they work through the sensory motor activities and the cognitive skill exercises. It was such a relief to find that there IS a way to improve learning opportunities for students who are struggling academically. I truly believe cognitive skills development is the "missing piece" needed to give students the tools required to be successful learners in school. The students' increased capacity to learn content has been astounding. Through the developmental activities students gain both confidence and performance. Esther Richey Students are showing phenomenal success as compared to a control group or counter parts that are not in the program to the extent you can see remarkable difference in some schools that we have out there some 85 to 95% of youngsters involved now are successful in courses where they’ve never been successful before. I’ve never seen so much enthusiasm from high school teachers for something that was strictly kid centered. That was pretty impressive. Larry Vaughn We’re showing a full grade level change. Also we’re finding students are having less difficulty in regard to behavior. The people who were originally skeptical are starting to see and want to know more about the program. Dr. Terry Berhendt
