“Thank you again for a week full of insight, wisdom and great fun on the FIE Basic (CognitiveKey) last week. Each day I felt like I was filled to the brim with practical knowledge that has the potential to grow minds and change lives. It really was inspiring to hear stories of Reuven Feuerstein himself - what a brilliant man, huge heart - as well as your own incredible stories of mediating with these instruments in America and around the world. Thank you for putting your heart and soul into the week. You conveyed a real spark and energy. As mentioned last week, I have already started mediating A on the Dots and I on Identifying the Emotions.”

“In December of 2014, D was diagnosed with leukemia at the age of two. Throughout his treatment, D’s development began to fall behind that of his twin brother; a result of something called “chemo brain”. Over the summer that bridged pre-K and Kindergarten, D was given the opportunity to participate in MINDCAP’s Clarity for Kids program through Cancer Services of Northeast Indiana. During the 6-months of the program, we saw improvements in D’s fine motor skills as well as his behavior. At the beginning, he wasn’t able to physically connect dots but improved immensely by focusing, looking ahead to the dots, making a plan, and persevering; all cognitive strategies used in the MINDCAP program. We found that using such strategies led to less frustration from D as well as my husband and myself. We have continued to bring D to MINDCAP over summer and winter breaks and are happy to report he continues to grow in his academic development. D’s favorite subject is math, one that is still difficult for him to grasp as quickly as his peers, but he rarely gets frustrated and is happy taking his time to get to the correct answer. We are extremely grateful to have found the program and hope that other cancer patients and survivors are fortunate enough to benefit from MINDCAP.”
