Assessment Descriptions

  • Comprehensive Assessment

    A comprehensive assessment provides insights into a student's educational progress and emotional growth, addressing concerns related to specific learning difficulties, such as dyslexia and dysgraphia, as well as challenges in reading, writing, and math. Additionally, it covers issues like anxiety, depression, attention deficits, and behavioral problems. These evaluations also highlight the student's strengths and weaknesses, offering recommendations that empower parents and teachers to understand and meet their unique needs.

  • Attention Assessments

    In our comprehensive assessments, we include evaluations for Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Our attention assessment utilizes a Neuropsychological Assessment (Nesplora Aula) in a virtual reality environment to evaluate attention processes, impulsivity, and motor activity. This innovative approach provides more precise diagnostic results. Additionally, for older students, the virtual reality assessment covers working memory and cognitive flexibility, addressing the complexities and transitions associated with adult life.
