Hear from our Arrowsmith Community:

“No matter how attentively I focused, I never seemed to be able to keep up with the world. This was noticeable to me, especially during normal everyday conversations. I was always two steps behind still processing the first sentence when the speaker was already on their third or fourth sentence. Six months into the program, I feel so much more confident. I feel like I can actually trust my brain now to guide me through these types of social situations. I can complete tasks more quickly in general. I'm better at prioritizing and summarizing my ideas.”

Ona, Adult Student

“I’ve become an avid reader. I always enjoyed stories, but I wouldn’t read on my own. Since doing the program, I find I’m reading all the time and thinking about the plot and characters and replaying scenes in my head after I’ve already finished the books.”

Faith, High School Student

“I’m able to organize my day, my weeks, and my months on my own without having anybody to tell me what to do and I have to thank Arrowsmith. Finally, after 29 years, I’m able to learn anything new pretty quickly and I can take notes for the first time after listening to someone in an organized matter.”

Michael, Finance Manager

“Another example of how I feel different is the way that I can solve multi-step problems. Before I would get lost in the numbers and I was really confused. I could only section out one thing at a time. So, in algebra one, I wasn't doing so well because I just could not see how all the steps fit together to make the answer that I received. But in Algebra two which is much more complex, I'm now able to see how everything is related and be able to apply different concepts within a problem.”

Carlie, Junior Student
