Changing Brains to Transform Lives

We envision a world in which anyone can take full advantage of their cognitive capabilities. 

Learn More About Our Vision

Let’s Look at Reading as an Example

We need to develop motor plans for smooth eye-tracking of printed text, we need to be able to remember the symbols that make up words, we need to be able to attach sounds to the symbols, we need to develop motor and sensory plans for articulation when reading out loud. 

So, reading requires multiple cognitive functions to work in concert.

It is the same for all learning – combinations of cognitive functions work together for each of us to learn and perform all of our daily activities. 

Let’s explore these cognitive functions and how they play out in the learning process.

Some individuals may not have a diagnosis yet know that something in their brain is interfering or holding them back from achieving their goals.

Arrowsmith looks under those labels.

At Arrowsmith, we have the unique ability to examine and identity a person’s strengths and weaknesses with their cognitive functions, building individualized programs that are designed to strengthen the underperforming functions - allowing individuals to overcome their learning challenges.

Every Human has a Unique Cognitive Profile of Strengths and Areas of Challenge

Each one of these cognitive functions operates on a continuum. You can be gifted in several of these functions, perform at an average level in others, and have functions operating at a level that causes difficulty.

If you think about your own learning process, you can identify areas where you excel and others that you tend to avoid – maybe you don’t have a good spatial sense and tend to get lost, you don’t pick up languages easily, or you miss subtle social cues.

Underpinning these abilities is your unique cognitive profile of strengths and areas of challenge. Each one of us has our own unique learning profile that is in play in everything we do. This explains why no two people learn in exactly the same way.

Change the Brain – Change the Learning Profile

Imagine - it is possible to change one’s learning profile – that the cognitive functions necessary for learning and performance in daily life can be enhanced and strengthened - that improvement can occur from any starting point on the continuum and at any age.

This is the power of Arrowsmith’s cognitive programs. Rather than accommodating to or working around a fixed learning profile, through applying the principles of neuroplasticity, Arrowsmith’s cognitive programs strengthen and enhance each learner’s fundamental cognitive capacities which underlie all aspects of learning.

Strengthen your brain – be at your best.

The fact that Arrowsmith trains the brain processors that make possible reasoning and rationality, is arguably one of the most important positive developments one could imagine for our world, with its complex problems.

Dr. Norman Doidge
Researcher and Author of the Brain That Changes Itself

There seems to be a story here about cognitive efficiency which includes working memory and attention and learning, the capacity to learn new things. These are really important cognitive skills for success at school and life in general.

Dr. Rachel Weber
Researcher, University of British Columbia

Arrowsmith is changing the trajectory of these students’ lives.

Dr. William Lancee
Researcher, University of Toronto

There is neuroplasticity as a function of Arrowsmith training, which generally improves performance. So–do precise Arrowsmith cognitive exercises activate and functionally change particular areas or networks of the brain? The answer, is yes.

Dr. Greg Rose
Researcher, Southern Illinois University

Every child is capable of handling curriculum as long as the brain is given the correct retraining to then understand meaning, ideas and concepts.
