🌱 Learner Profile Assessments

Helping You Understand How Your Child Learns

These gentle, child-friendly assessments shine a light on how your child thinks, remembers, and processes information. The result? A clear picture of their learning style, plus practical strategies you can use at home and teachers can apply in school.

​

What Is a Learner Profile Assessment?

Think of it as a learning snapshot. It’s not a diagnostic test, but rather a detailed overview of your child’s cognitive strengths and areas where they may need extra support. It’s especially helpful if you:

•Aren’t ready for a full diagnostic assessment, or don’t yet meet the criteria

•Want clarity around skills like memory, attention, or processing speed

•Would like practical strategies before pursuing further referrals

​

What We Explore

Every child’s profile is unique, but we may look at:

•Reasoning skills — verbal and visual problem-solving

•Working memory — holding and using information

•Processing speed — how quickly information is absorbed and applied

•Phonological skills — foundations for reading and spelling

•Writing fluency — handwriting and written expression

•Optional language screening — if concerns are raised

We keep the focus on what matters most for your child — no unnecessary testing.

 

How the Process Works

 

1. Before the Assessment

2. During the Assessment
