Auditory processing, reading and memory programs for kids
Our brains can be changed
The most amazing and inspiring discovery by neuroscientists in the last three decades is that with the right type of practise, we can change our brain to learn better.
Learning difficulties don’t have to be permanent
Would you like to help your child with …
– Remembering more information?
– Paying attention in class?
– Listening and following instructions?
– Reading and writing?
If so, we have a neuroscience program for you.
Did you know?
Our team have been helping helping Australian kids improve their learning skills since 2004.
All our programs are done online (on your computer or iPad) with support from our team. We only use research-backed programs developed by neuroscientists and researchers.
Sonic Learning’s online attention, auditory processing, reading and memory programs
Instead of re-teaching classroom content, these programs build the skills needed to be better at learning.
Changing the brain isn’t possible overnight but it is absolutely possible. Improving processing, memory and attention takes daily practice (around 30 minutes, 5 days per week), individualised instruction and engaging exercises to create significant and lasting improvement.
The programs are fun, online, and designed to fit into your busy schedule.
