Why the Bravo! Tutoring Approach Works

Multisensory Activities Make Learning Stick

At Bravo! Tutoring, we know that kids who struggle to learn are usually hands-on or tactile learners.

This means they learn best by “doing” instead of “seeing” or “hearing”. Schools typically rely primarily on the lecture format, which is auditory-based, to rely information to students. They add in a visual component as back up, but rarely include the tactile component.

This makes it hard for kids who struggle with dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, ADD/ADHD, or autism to learn. When a multisensory approach is taken, kids get to use all three senses — hearing, seeing, and doing — to learn.

At Bravo! Tutoring, we know how kids learn! Because of that, we combine visual, auditory, tactile, and kinesthetic methods to build strong, lasting neural connections. Students don’t just memorize—they understand.

Visual Processing Skills Help Your Child Perceive Information Correctly

Did you know that our main learning sense is visual? All too often, kids who struggle to learn are weak in visual processing skills.

When simple visual activities are provided, it becomes much easier for the student to understand and comprehend information.

At Bravo! Tutoring, we provide a strong visual learning foundation for your child. We help your child strengthen visual tracking skills, visual memory, visual discrimination, pattern recognition, and spatial awareness abilities.


These visual skills support reading fluency and comprehension, handwriting, writing skills, math abilities, and overall academic confidence.

Auditory Processing Skills Are Important for Proper Comprehension

Auditory processing skills are important to survive the modern classroom lecture format.

Most information in school is presented through an auditory format. This is fine, unless a child struggles to process auditory information. If that’s the case, it can be like sitting in classroom that speaks a foreign language for six hours a day.

Bravo! Tutoring understands how important auditory processing skills are, especially for kids who are already struggling to learn. Through fun, meaningful auditory activities, we help students improve sound discrimination, phonological awareness, listening comprehension, and working memory — key components for strong reading and communication.

Brain Integration Activities Balance the Learning Process

Most kids who struggle to learn are right-brain dominant. This doesn’t mean they aren’t smart!

They are creative, disorganized, movement-oriented, busy, bright, but struggle to learn in a logical fashion.

At Bravo! Tutoring, we offer fun movement-based and cross-lateral activities that help the brain communicate more efficiently with learning processes.

This improves focus, organization, coordination, and learning readiness.

How Our Approach Supports the Brain and Transforms Learning

Every child’s brain learns through connection—between senses, movement, memory, and language. When one area is weak or underdeveloped, learning can feel overwhelming. Our tutoring program strengthens these skills through a whole-brain, multisensory approach that builds lasting, meaningful change.

Below is a deeper look at the core components of our program and why they work.


Multisensory Academic Instruction

Teaching that connects the brain, body, and senses

Traditional teaching relies heavily on listening and looking. But for many children with learning differences, this approach doesn’t activate enough of the brain to make learning stick.

Our multisensory instruction uses visual, auditory, tactile, and movement-based experiences simultaneously. Research shows that the more senses involved in learning, the stronger the neural pathways become.

How multisensory teaching helps:

  • Builds stronger memory for letters, sounds, and words
  • Improves comprehension by linking language to concrete experiences
  • Helps students who struggle with attention stay actively engaged
  • Makes abstract concepts (like math and grammar) easier to understand
  • Supports children who need hands-on learning to process information

Examples of what we use:

  • Sand trays and textured letters
  • Color-coding for grammar, spelling, and math concepts
  • Manipulatives and movement-based math
  • Multisensory spelling and writing routines
  • Visual aids, graphic organizers, and step-by-step modeling

This approach is especially effective for dyslexia, dysgraphia, and dyscalculia because it reinforces areas of the brain involved in reading, writing, sequencing, and problem-solving.


Visual Processing Activities

Training the eyes and brain to work together

Many struggling learners have difficulty with visual skills—not eyesight, but how the brain interprets and organizes what the eyes see.

Visual processing activities strengthen skills needed for reading, writing, math, and overall comprehension.

We build skills in:

  • Visual tracking (moving the eyes smoothly across a page)
  • Visual discrimination (telling letters, shapes, and numbers apart)
  • Visual memory (remembering what was just seen)
  • Visual sequencing (remembering order of letters, numbers, and steps)
  • Visual-spatial awareness (understanding size, direction, and placement)

How visual processing helps learners:

  • Improves reading fluency and reduces skipping lines
  • Strengthens spelling and the ability to copy from the board
  • Supports handwriting, spacing, and organization
  • Helps with math alignment, geometry, and place value
  • Builds attention and reduces visual overwhelm

This is particularly beneficial for children with dyslexia (who often have tracking and sequencing difficulties) and dysgraphia (who struggle with spacing and visual-motor integration).


Auditory Processing Activities

Building a strong foundation for language, reading, and listening

Auditory processing is how the brain makes sense of sounds—not just hearing them, but interpreting, organizing, and remembering them.

Weaknesses in this area often lead to difficulties in phonics, spelling, following directions, and understanding language.

We strengthen:

  • Phonological awareness (breaking words into sounds)
  • Auditory discrimination (telling similar sounds apart)
  • Auditory memory (remembering what was heard)
  • Auditory sequencing (remembering the correct order of information)
  • Listening comprehension

How auditory processing helps learners:

  • Improves decoding and word recognition
  • Strengthens spelling accuracy
  • Helps with learning new vocabulary
  • Increases ability to follow multi-step directions
  • Reduces frustration from missing or mishearing information

This approach is essential for dyslexia (reading begins with sound processing), dysgraphia (sound-to-print accuracy), and many students with ADHD or autism who struggle with listening and processing speed.


Brain Integration Activities

Strengthening communication between the left and right hemispheres

The brain learns best when both hemispheres communicate smoothly. Many children with learning disabilities show gaps in cross-lateral coordination, reflex integration, and executive functioning.

We incorporate gentle, targeted movement activities that support whole-brain development.

These activities include:

  • Cross-lateral movements
  • Rhythm and timing exercises
  • Balance and core-strengthening tasks
  • Bilateral coordination activities
  • Reflex-integration movements
  • Eye-hand and eye-foot coordination exercises

How brain integration helps learners:

  • Improves focus and attention
  • Strengthens working memory
  • Supports reading stamina and fluency
  • Enhances handwriting and motor planning
  • Reduces anxiety around challenging tasks
  • Builds smoother left-right brain communication for learning

Children with dyslexia, dysgraphia, ADHD, and high-functioning autism often benefit greatly from this type of movement-based cognitive training.


Why This Matters for Children With Learning Differences

Kids with learning disabilities aren’t “behind”—their brains simply process information differently. Our approach meets them where they are and helps them build the foundational skills they need in order to learn efficiently and confidently.

This whole-brain method:

Reduces frustration

Rebuilds self-esteem

Makes learning feel achievable again

Creates lasting improvements, not temporary fixes
