Our Confidence and Enrichment Program

At grade level but capable of more?

In need of a confidence boost?


These questions apply to two very different types of students, performing at very different levels, but actually they are both probing for the same underlying problem, namely a learning mechanism that is not performing as well as it could. Healthy underlying intelligence amy be trapped in a flawed or lacking learning system, leading to sub-par results.

If your child's lack of confidence is associated with one of the following areas, click on the link for more information.
Reading challenges

Language and learning issues

If child is performing at or above grade level, and your interest is an enrichment program to help him make the most of their natural smarts, then read on.

For above grade level children not yet performing at their potential or who do not love reading the way their parents know they can, Gemm Learning offers a customized program to help children perform at their very best.

Recent studies confirm our own experience that above grade level children can make major gains. Learning ability is as strong as the weakest link. By strengthening a weakness -- and we all have them -- tremendous gains are possible. The software is adaptive, meaning it finds those weak links and strengthens them to their biological limit.

Our goals include:

  • Improve Reading Comprehension. A labored reading style will hold back comprehension as the brain is multi-tasking -- decoding and drawing meaning. We build automaticity in decoding that improves reading comprehension.

  • Learn to love reading. Many smart kids use high IQs to stitch together a flawed reading style that is allowing them to keep up but because it is labored, there is no potential to learn to love of reading. We automate decoding, making reading less exhausting and more rewarding.

  • Speed up auditory processing, strengthen working memory. Our program will help make sure processing speed and retention skills are working at your child's biological best.

  • Improve focus, attention stamina. Most children can benefit from an improved ability to stay engaged in class, to study independently and to read for longer periods. We tackle all three, as needed.
  • Why Your Child Should Try Gemm

    It Can Change Your Child's Life
    Even small changes this year will compound into much more profound gains five years from now, putting your child on a faster track to academic success. These gains could very well open up all kinds of college choices that would not be possible otherwise.

    It Can Only Help
    There is only upside from program like this that develop critical cognitive skills. Because it is individualized, every child will have an opportunity to improve his or her most vulnerable skills. Or they will receive a well-rounded exercising of all reading and learning skills. Many families have been surprised by the magnitude of the gains. Isn't that potential alone worth the time and money?

    It Is Fun
    The software is engaging, so much more fun than tutoring. Students like being challenged, and our programs do this in an adaptive way that does not frustrate or overwhelm. And do not under-estimate the value of Gemm's remote coach to motivate your child or Gemm City our online website and other incentives to make this an fulfilling part of your child's routine. One measure of how much fun it is is that many families stay beyond the original timeframe.

    The 30 minute protocol can be fit into any day -- it can even be broken up into two sessions. Remember, learning growth is sequential, the sooner the better!
