The Truth About IQ
Our IQ is made up of 7 key cognitive skills. Each of us has a unique cognitive profile that gives us our strengths and weaknesses. That's why one person may be great in Maths and find it easy, while the other may really struggle in Maths but be a great linguist.

Why IQ scores alone
don't tell the whole story
One IQ score - two different learning challenges.
Specific, intense training in weak skills will help unlock the academic potential of both.
Student A
IQ Score: 106
Cognitive Skills
M=Memory
VP=Visual Processing
LR=Logk & Reasoning
PS=Processing Speed
WA=Word Attack
AP=Auditory Processing. *
An IQ score of 100 is considered “Average” ie. on the black line
Student Rebecca is a polite, well adjusted 11 year old. Her older sister has occasionally help's her with homework, particularly in Maths. In most subjects she gets by OK on her own. She reads well enough to keep up with her peers, but struggles with Geography and fractions. Rebecca's IQ score is 106, but her underlying skills of memory & visual processing are weak, which cause these struggles.
Student B
IQ Score: 106

Anthony is frustrated and withdrawn at times. He's been to tutors and several after school programs with little success. He won't tread and rebels when forced to try. He is barely passing his exams, except art. In art class he thrives and keeps a sketchbook with him all the time. Anthony’s IQ score is 106, but his underlying word attack and auditory processing skills are weak.

How It Works
Book A Cognitive Skills Assessment
Designed to feel like engaging brain games, the Cognitive Skills Assessment takes approximately one hour and helps reduce stress for students.
The full package, including consultation, is just $200.
Meet with our Centre Director for expert guidance
After the assessment, the Center Director will explain your child’s results in detail and guide you on the best path forward to improve attention and focus.
You’ll leave with a personalized report that clearly outlines your child’s cognitive strengths and areas for growth.
The right program can unlock your child’s full potential.
As your child’s attention, cognitive skills, and IQ improve, learning becomes faster and easier. You’ll likely notice more cooperative behavior and stronger relationships in everyday life. Most importantly, these changes build lasting confidence and self-esteem.
Are weak cognitive skills holding your child back ?
Research shows that the real cause of a person’s ability to learn is his or her cognitive skills’ strength or weakness. If skills are strong, learning comes easily and “naturally.” If skill weaknesses remain hidden, he or she will struggle to learn, stay focused, have difficulty reading, suffer with memory problems or take a long time to complete tests and homework. A professional cognitive skills assessment is the only way to pinpoint the exact underlying causes of any learning difficulty. At The Brain & Learning, we offer an accurate cognitive assessment (with no further obligation) and can help you put this knowledge to use. With the Gibson Test of Cognitive Skills, we can identify and understand the underlying reasons for each person's learning experiences.

What are Cognitive Skills?“Cognitive skills” is a fancy term for brain skills or abilities. These are the core skills our brains need in order to think, learn, read, reason, remember, problem solve and pay attention. Altogether, they process any new information we receive and move this to our knowledge bank. We use this knowledge we have acquired in every area of our lives including school and work.

How is Brain Training different to tutoring?Schools deliver information and rely upon a student’s existing potential to process, retain, and apply this information. If information was not properly processed, parents feel inclined to send their children for tutoring. Research shows that 80% of learning struggles do not occur because information was poorly taught, but because of weak cognitive skills. These weak skills make learning a difficult process no matter how many times that information is repeated.
