Why The Learning Brain Monthly?

  • Most of what you think you know about the brain is just plain wrong.
  • When a child struggles in reading or math, the default response is to reteach--more slowly, or breaking into even smaller steps--but that doesn't work.
  • The problem isn't what kids are learning, it's how their brains are wired.


Discover how the brain actually learns.

Don't miss our next session on April 14, 2026 on The Adolescent Brain: Wired for Risk and Growth

Oh my goodness!!!!!!! It's after 2 a.m. here in Indiana and I just could not stop listening to the presentation on Executive Functions from July.  It was SO interesting to listen to.  Thank you so very much for keeping all of us aware of your great work.

Very informative and interesting. This topic is not commonly discussed. I like how it was framed as another way of meeting students' needs, beyond modifying curriculum, accommodations and compensatory strategies.  Thanks!

As always, wonderful webinar packed with information.  I look forward to future webinars.
