Science that feels like play
Does this sound like your child?
They’re stuck on the same level
They’re still on the same literacy level despite extra phonics and other school support, re-learning the same concepts because the information just doesn’t “stick.”
They’re exhausted from school
They come home exhausted or emotional from the sheer mental effort of trying to focus all day.
They call themselves “dumb”
They’ve started calling themselves “dumb” because they haven’t seen a return on their effort in the past.
They struggle to follow instructions
They struggle to follow multi-step instructions or need requests repeated constantly.
They zone out at school
They frequently ‘zone out’ in class and struggle to recount what they’ve learned or what happened during their school day.
They can’t face school anymore
Schoolwork feels like an impossible mountain, leading to tears, avoidance, or total shutdown.
By the time parents contact us, they’ve often tried a number of learning interventions
– but their child continues to fall behind.
When consistent practice isn’t helping, more of the same rarely addresses the root cause.
At Sonic Learning, we shift the focus from
practicing content to building capacity.
We specialise in working with students
who have reached a plateau
with school-based interventions,
tutoring, or therapy.
This includes students who struggle with

How our evidence-based approach differs
Instead of more curriculum practice, we use neuroscience-based programs to target the underlying skills
that make learning and literacy possible.
Attention and memory
The ability to take in, hold, and use information effectively.
Language and sequencing
The foundations required for understanding instructions and stories, spelling and writing.
Auditory processing
The speed and accuracy with which the brain processes information.
Executive functioning
The high-level organisation required for learning and study.
These are the primary skills that are necessary for all classroom learning – whether it be English, maths or science.
Proven Science. Experienced Support.

Clinical results without the clinical price tag
Most tutoring and therapy sessions cost $100 – $200 per session. Our courses created by health professionals and neuroscientists start from as little as $66 per week, individually adapt to your child’s needs, and include support from Australian health and education professionals.
Fast, lasting gains in just 1.5 hours per week
Skip the travel and the waitlists. Our evidence-based courses require just 30 minutes a day, 3 days per week to see lasting learning gains. It’s the most efficient way to build learning and reading skills without adding more stress to your family’s week.
A solution for kids who are "burnt out" on learning
Most kids who have struggled at school expect interventions to be boring, repetitive, or too hard. Our approach is different. We pair professional support with world-leading, evidence-based games that don’t feel like worksheets or “more of the same.” The training constantly adjusts to your child’s specific skill level in real-time, keeping them engaged and building confidence from day one.
World-class intervention, anywhere in Australia or New Zealand
You shouldn’t be limited by where you live. Whether you’re in a major city or in a remote area with limited access to specialists, you can access world-leading learning intervention. Our courses are 100% online and supported by telehealth, phone and email.
Cognitive training isn't just for kids - adults benefit too
Whether you’re returning to study, falling behind at work, or experiencing challenges with processing, attention, memory or literacy, our adult courses are designed to sharpen your “mental hardware.” We focus on increasing working memory, processing speed, and attention – the foundational skills required for listening, communicating and learning.
