Why is tutoring better with a twist?
Scientific advances in the mid-90s confirmed great news… the brain can change!
We can physically make our brain work better & grow new neurons! It’s called ‘positive’ brain plasticity & it improves learning!
With purposeful, engaging practice, our brain pathways can increase & connect like grooves in an old-fashioned record! The more we practice, the stronger our grooves!
But beware! There’s a flipside to plasticity.
It’s not only head injuries that can hurt our brain & limit success — poor habits can, too…
Sedentary lifestyles, inattention, impulsiveness, &/or dysfunctional breathing link with fewer brain connections, less brain reserve, & inhibited learning (negative plasticity).
At Code Word Brain, kids can find their learning ‘groove’ faster via 1:1 tutoring with a twist of plasticity training & breathwork, specifically formulated to bless the brain!

Brainpower ACTIVATED | Achievement CELEBRATED
Many kids who fall behind at school are simply unable to process rapid auditory information efficiently or accurately enough.
We’ll use award-winning, Dr Merzenich’s auditory training to build & strengthen brain pathways, & improve listening accuracy.
Nasal breathing improves intelligence, sleep & brain oxygen!
Around 40% of kids with sleep disorders develop ADHD, ADD, or learning difficulty. Mouth-breathing is a major culprit! I help kids improve sleep, behaviour, learning & sports via breath training.
What do parents say?
