Everyone learns differently.
The right support helps teens find joy, connection, and engage more in their world- with confidence.
I'm Kristi Sproates, a Developmental Learning Consultant. I help adolescents with learning challenges who feel unseen and stuck to find more joy and take active steps toward a brighter future. I also support carers, parents, and teachers who feel isolated and overwhelmed by outdated systems, so they can see the positive impact of young people enjoying life and learning.
