Learning Programs for Students

Hummingbird Learning Iridescent Programs for Students and Teenagers

Learning to navigate life is a challenge to every student and teenager without struggling at school or college making it even tougher. At Hummingbird Learning Centre, we specialise in helping teenagers and young adults overcome a variety of learning challenges, helping them to make life easier (especially for their parents!). The Iridescent Programs, which incorporate the Hummingbird Learning Method®, are specifically designed for Students and teenagers.Our complementary approach to educational programs provides all the tools they need to help them succeed.

A student who continually struggles with spelling, reading, writing or maths, may display a learning challenge that requires more than extra tuition or more time spent studying. Poor classroom participation, constant battles over homework, poor note taking or a lack of self-motivation may indicate one or more academic struggles that are the result of a specific learning challenge and are beyond the control of the student, or it may be simply a learning style that does not lend itself well to the typical classroom environment.

The Hummingbird Learning Method® identifies 4 groupings of essential skills which work with the learning style of the student. Within these 4 groupings – Green, Magenta, Blue and Purple – are 22 skills which help students overcome both learning and behavioural challenges, allowing them to effectively uncover and develop their hidden talents and natural learning gifts.
