Our Method

Social-emotional Learning (SEL)

Special needs students thrive under SEL. Our lessons focus on strategies that inform educators how to encourage students to be successful.

Rooted in Brain Science

Our courses are developed by neuroscientists, doctors, and education experts with an emphasis on the scientific research behind the logic.

Interactive

Rather than offering lectures, we created lessons that engage you through interactive features such as click-through videos, quizzes, and activities.

Distance Learning

With the difficulties educators are facing due to COVID-19, our courses are created with remote access in mind. Learn how to reach your students digitally.
