Time to talk about IM this summer
IM in the summer is very intense, like mini IM camps.
Students come 75 minutes each day, every weekday for a month.
With this amount of IM training, students gain an average of 1 to 2 grade levels in reading and math as well as gains in attention, coordination, language processing and social skills.

You will hear me speak of reps (repetitions)
often in IM. 30,000 reps is like a student doing 30,000 mental ‘lifting
of weights’ in the brain and is the minimum number of reps I will do in one IM
format. Older groups will need a minimum of 17 days to complete this, the
youngest groups will likely use all available days during a summer format.
Things to keep in mind about scheduling:
Typically the younger child, 6 – 12 years old, will
meet in the morning and the older students, teens and college, will meet after
lunch (jobs become the challenge, so teens plan to work late afternoons and
evenings your month of training). Also plan your IM training around your
vacation as missed days negatively impact training.
Check your calendar and schedule your summer IM today.

Notice of price adjustment
All
my IM machines are outdated and I need to upgrade. With that in mind, the costs
for 2013 has gone up just a little. IM will now be $825/person in a group
mode. To help, I am continuing my 2012 prices for students beginning IM by
March 31st. Save $75 and do IM this spring for $750. This
summer, IM will be $825/person
