Over the last couple of decades, the research from various academic bodies have determined that IQ and/or SAT scores are not the best predictors for adult success. This does not mean that we minimize the importance of academic skills, but it does support Samara's incorporation of teaching executive functioning skills (organizing, prioritizing, time management, study skills, etc.), success attributes (self-awareness, proactivity, perseverance, etc.), and mindfulness (perspective, consideration, social problem solving, etc.). I do this throughout the day, as well as have specific times a few days a week in which these skills are taught explicitly and include activities in which they can be taught through teachable moments.

Our son had a lot of anxiety about returning to a childcare or a school-like settings after a long hiatus due to COVID. We are so grateful we found Samara Learning Center to ease this transition! The staff was very accommodating and understanding about all children's varying needs, and our son loved it there! We felt very comfortable with the school and staff, and are so happy to have had such a great experience. Thank you!
My teenage son has had many interventions. He was resistant to summer tutoring. However, after the first day of the Algebra Clinic, he easily woke up at 8:00am to attend. He kept his materials stating "I need these for the school year. I hadn't been taught this way before.
My 9 year old daughter was recently diagnosed Dyslexic and we decided to give Samara a try for the summer camp and learning sessions. By the end of the first day she was saying Heather was the best teacher she ever has had and didn't want to leave, she started having fun with learning again! Samara is a blessing, definitely recommended and we will be back. Heather and Kristina are both amazing and helpful with adjusting to a new pathway. Thank You!
I wanted to say that I have never picked up my son after school and felt him so regulated and heard him singing in the car... I nearly cried... we had a day last Monday when he was so excited about school, and so peaceful ALL DAY--it's what I call a "glimmer day"--a day that gives me hope that we can help him find his peace with learning.
