Her teacher has reported behavioural and learning difficulties that are increasingly causing problems in class.

In addition to a clinical assessment, the school has requested guidance as to managing Jenny in class and how to maximise her learning opportunities.

    In the three and a half centuries since William Harvey proved that the purpose of the heart is to pump blood, physiologists have revealed the functional organization of the body in blinding detail.

Further, there is near unanimity among biologists that this functional structure is a product of natural selection. In our century, psychologists have developed powerful techniques that conclusively demonstrate that cognition, too, has structure. Evolutionary psychologists are betting that cognitive structure, like physiological structure, has been designed by natural selection to serve survival and reproduction.…

    The focal point in the one day motivational program that I created is 5A’s, a simple, elegance yet powerful motivational program to help the school students to cope with their unwanted behaviour and attitude towards their school, studies and exam. The 5A’s is the key characteristic of the one day motivational program, which is an easy way to score straight A’s in your exam, a cutting edge technique to MASTER any book, a powerful technique to manage homework and revision, a simple technique to improve memory power and a marvelous technique to improve communication skills. I also will enrich the motivational talk by including some fun activity as mention in the brochure which are fun games inclusive of video, computer and smart phone games, mind blowing “unbelievable” and “energetic” free breakfast and unimaginable idea of home cooked fantastic free lunch which I will incorporate together with the 5A’s key characteristic of the motivational talk so that the students will enjoy the fun and joy of this talk.
