StepUp to Learn

What is NeuroNet's StepUp To Learn Program?

StepUp to Learn is a neuroscience-based learning readiness program where structured practice leads to skill development.

This OT evidence-based treatment for kids with learning differences is not a tutoring program. Instead, StepUp builds neural networks to support a child’s readiness to learn.

Think of it as the wiring which can power handwriting fluency, organizational skills, impulse control, and much more.


From StepUpToLearn.com

NeuroNet comprises a suite of research-based learning readiness programs that provide structured, sequential exercises for perceptual-motor development which lays the foundation for automating reading, math, and handwriting skills.

When basic reading, math, and handwriting skills are not automated, it places greater demands on a child’s attentional-resources, which may lead to poor academic performance, or behavior and emotional problems.


The Goal

The goal of an individualized NeuroNet program is to help your child become an independent learner. Children who complete NeuroNet programs demonstrate improvements in reading, math, and handwriting. But more than just improvements in academic skills, children develop a “can-do” attitude toward learning.
