What is Brainworks?

Brainworks has developed and uses a systemic approach to teach skills that result in life-changing behaviors. Brainworks offers instruction during the school year as well as an accelerated summer program.


Why is Brainworks important?

Brainworks is important because traditional "tutoring" programs do not address the core issues which prevent performance.


At Brainworks you will learn how to:

  • Work to its full potential.
  • Remap connections at its optimal level.
  • Use its areas of strength to overcome its areas of weakness.

Success Stories

The Eight Alarm Wakeup Call The Eight Alarm Wakeup Call
D.J. came to Brainworks while he was in 8th grade. Organization was definitely not his strong suit. On days he managed to remember to do his homework, he'd probably lose it. If he didn't lose it, he'd still neglect to turn it in to the teacher.
Stephen, The West Texas Roadrunner Stephen, The West Texas Roadrunner
Stephen Cogan was brilliant. He was 8 years old, memorized TV dialog like a VCR, understood math concepts he wasn't supposed to grasp for another 4 years, and was generally frustrated that nobody could keep up with him in a conversation.
Do Whatever It Takes to Get Kicked Out Do Whatever It Takes to Get Kicked Out
Kathi Shuford had been concerned about her daughter's learning difficulties since Mary was in preschool.
Alicia Blows the Top Off the Kindergarten Readiness Test Alicia Blows the Top Off the Kindergarten Readiness Test
"Knee high to a jack rabbit." "Bundle of energy." Those are the words that the staff at Brainworks used to describe Alicia Magee. Her confidence and enthusiasm for learning made a lasting impression on the entire staff. Our task was to evaluate her cognitive, social, and motor skills and make recommendations for her curriculum in the fall.
