Outstanding Feedback

Read glowing reviews from Empowered Educators and Thriving Students!

The time I’ve saved since implementing this program with small groups of students has been invaluable, and the results speak for themselves – students are more engaged, empowered, and equipped for success. Kaizen’s Brain Hub Academy is not just a tool; it’s an essential resource for any educator dedicated to excellence and empowering students to understand more about how to better access their unique brain.

In the words of my students: “The Brain Hub program is kinda awesome. I learned a ton about my brain, and it’s like, super cool to see how it actually works. Before this, I thought maybe I was just lazy or something, but no, I just needed a little help figuring out my study steps. And the videos? They’re not boring at all – actually pretty fun to watch! It’s like, ‘Wow, I didn’t know my brain did that!’ Now, when I have to learn something new, I know better what to do. It’s been super helpful!”

Kaizen’s Brain Hub Academy has been an important tool in my ever growing toolbox.  Having had the opportunity to work directly with students, it has been an eye opening experience for not just the students but myself as well. As an education assistant, I am able to guide students through the process of learning about themselves and the ways in which they cope and thrive.  This gives them a clear picture of where they are at and where they will continue to grow. Our daily lives rely heavily on our executive skills, both as kids and adults.  Working with Kaizen Brain Academy will support a diverse population of students which makes this program invaluable. Not relying on broad stereotypes about types of learners, Kaizen Brain Academy helps to narrow in on the students needs, which removes any labels or judgements. Working through the modules with the students has provided a deeper insight into the science of the brain, as well as the associated behaviors.  When a student says “AHA” I know they have made an important connection. School can be a challenging place with competing demands so learning about our executive skills and how they function in the environments we spend so much time in, can really support our students’ successes.

Samantha is passionate about helping students, particularly those with ADHD, develop the skills and strategies that lead them to success. I was very impressed when Samantha introduced me to “Brain Hub Academy” – I think that our students would really benefit from this program and support. This program is rooted in research and current brain data. There is a platform for both students and teachers and is presented in modules. I am currently working through the first module, called “Your Brain, an Owner’s Manual,” and I am excited to report that this module is interesting and informative and contains content that is presented in a format that is engaging to students.

Samantha is an amazing person with a deep and passionate understanding of students. The workshop was engaging, meaningful, and essential. The kids were empowered to learn and build essential skills while teachers learned more strategies to support all of our children.

I liked that the Power Up Memory gave me options for studying. I really liked the multi-modal (study) ideas because it gave me specific options to try out that worked. Overall, the Brain Hub challenged me to be honest with myself about my approaches. Plus, I loved the cute blob family!

Madeline

High School Student

As a teacher who has embraced Kaizen’s Brain Hub Academy, I can attest to its remarkable impact. This program is a treasure trove of insights, offering a unique blend of neuroscience and practical application that has transformed my teaching approach. ‘My Brain, An Owner’s Manual’ is not just a module; it’s a “brain selfie” that has allowed me to better understand and cater to the diverse cognitive needs of my students.
★★★★★

Lisa

Learning Strategist

The Mindprint assessment is particularly enlightening, revealing the distinct strengths and growth areas of each learner. It’s as if we’ve been given a key to unlock the full potential of our students’ minds. The program is brilliantly organized, making it incredibly efficient and effective in both planning and execution.
★★★★★

Teacher

I believe Samantha Woods, the founder of Kaizen Education Services, is a pioneer in bridging the gap between the education system and the needs of those with ADHD (including the common co-existing disorders, Executive Functioning Disorder included). Kaizen Education Services provides a tailored approach to addressing the needs of students and are dedicated and successful in finding more enhanced methods to help kids reach their potential within the school system and in life.
★★★★★
Christa

Parent

Although the team at Kaizen has an in-depth understanding of those diagnosed with ADHD (including the common coexisting disorders), they know that more often than not, kids with ADHD are simply “misunderstood.” They are dedicated to increasing awareness of this disorder. They are helping the community have a better understanding (and empathy) for kids with ADHD through their website, blogs, parent and teacher information sessions, and more. They are tirelessly working to educate parents, teachers, and the community on ADHD symptoms and the strategies to help kids be successful at school and at home.
★★★★★

Teacher

Samantha is one of the strongest child advocates that I’ve ever seen. She is relentless and tireless in her efforts and commitment to support and help students succeed.
★★★★★

Teacher

Kaizen’s creative approach in teaching not only as an educator but as a mentor has prepared me for my own teaching career. The skills she (Sam) has taught me have helped me build a solid foundation which I can apply not only in my career but also in all aspects of my life. I would recommend anyone looking to overcome an obstacle or expand their knowledge to allow Kaizen the opportunity to assist in their goals.
★★★★★
Mardi

Teacher

The assessment from my Brain Blueprint profile gave me practical insight around my cognitive strengths and areas to support. This knowledge helped me immensely in tailoring my approach to learning. The level of detail and personalized feedback from the assessment allowed me to make adjustments in my study habits that immediately improved my academic performance.
★★★★★

Cam

University Student

The program enables all parties to link together to create a series of individualized goals that are attainable and measurable by the teacher, parent, and student. The support network that is the basis for the program means success is quantifiable, and the students can see the advantage immediately. The program is centered on the student, and there is accountability that Samantha organizes.

The Science Behind The Brain Hub Academy

Cutting-edge research supports the transformative power of executive function training, like the one offered by The Brain Hub Academy, in elevating student thinking and boosting academic success. A recent study published in Frontiers in Psychology [1] has shown that neuroscience-based programs can significantly improve middle schoolers’ reasoning, critical thinking, and standardized test scores.

Measurable Gains in Just 10 Sessions

The study found that in as few as 10 sessions, executive function training can produce measurable gains in abstraction, cognitive flexibility, and deep thinking. By implementing a curriculum like The Brain Hub Academy, you can empower students of all abilities to unlock their full potential and excel academically.
