Business Details

 With the increase in the number of children who face learning difficulties and struggle with academics (due to pre-natal, peri-natal, post-natal and environmental factors), we brought Changing Tree into existence to aid such kids. At Changing Tree, we commence with assessing the children’s strength and weakness. 

With the assessment’s outcome, we device a holistic multisensory training approach, which in-turn will progressively benefit the children in overcoming the difficulties and will start to cope well with their academics as well. When we say difficulty, we would like to re-iterate that it is not restricted to differently abled children, but children who go to main -stream schools also might face the afore mentioned challenges. So, we also aim at facilitating Children from mainstream schools who struggle with Reading, Writing, Spelling, Comprehension and Language and Communication. 
At Changing Tree, we render individual attention, and we formulate a conducive environment with activity-based learning and game-based learning for each individual. As we believe in mutual partnering, we build a good rapport with the children. With this, we take utmost care to ensure that the children enjoy their learning and we act as a catalyst to help them to learn unassisted. While we strongly trust that parents also play a major role, we equip parents as well with all the relevant information, so that we jointly put efforts in the betterment of each child!
We also provide Training programs and workshops for parents, teachers and professionals on various subject areas related to psychology and SLD.
