| This is a specialist centre
dedicated to empower individuals with their hidden ability to realize
their potential and reach their desired goal. Through learning partnership
we aim to build confidence and increase self-esteem through supportive
innovation and interactive programme. Each programme is specific
and individually tailored to enable people to work out how they
should represent themselves and others through learning. The principle
is well established to allow each person to find their barriers
and what is holding them back from reaching their desired goal through
the eluded confidence.
Over 115 individual programmes are available for every stage of
development from 3 to 83 years of age. Our programmes are divided
into four major topics:
1. English
2. Mathematics
3. Science
4. General Studies
Our Belief:
· By working together we can overcome all barriers to access
learning.
· Specific Learning difficulties are Academic Skills Disorder
that can be put right.
· Dyslexia is not a disease, disability or health hazard,
it is a misunderstanding of learning that can be corrected.
· Everyone is entitled to quality learning for equal rights
to opportunity.
Our Service
· Information sessions to schools, parents, societies and
support groups.
· Outreach work and support to enable people full access
to opportunities.
· Exploration though base line verification to identify the
level of academic skills disorders and ways to over come the problems
successfully.
· Workshops and training sessions on best ways to:
1. Strengthen Visual memory
2. Enhance Active memory
3. Expand the Long term memory
4. Reduce Retroactive Inhibition
Our Methods:
Our learning process is based on adapting the following strategies:
1. Stimulus-Response
a. Cognitive: The person who is learning
is taught to understand what is required an how to go about to achieve
it.
b. Associative: The person practices the
skills in order to develop the necessary sesnorimotor connections.
c. Autonomous: The link between the presence
of the appropriate stimulus and the motor performance of the skills
becomes automatic, and the skills is performed with very little
voluntary control.
2. Information processing
Plan Formation: Identification of what is required
and developing a cognitive plan in order to guide and organize the
necessary actions.
Perceptional organization: Filtering the sensory
inputs so that individuals can distinguish between relevant sensory
information and that which is irrelevant.
Economy of motor action: Minimizing the conscious
control and sensory input required to perform learning skills.
Timing: Developing a continuous unbroken act through consolidation
of the sequencing and co-ordination of the sensorimotor patterns
and responses.
Automatic Execution: Transformation of the learning
skills from conscious to unconscious control (from cerebral cortex
to the cerebellum and spinal cord) so that few cognitive demands
on the individual is made.
