This inspirational story is a “must read” for anybody who has ever worked for a school system as a special education teacher or program director. In fact any teacher could gain insight and encouragement from Dr. Erica Warren’s journey from a very frustrated but impassioned educator to a thriving educational entrepreneur.

This article would be of value to someone interested in the subject of the neuroscience of learning because it discusses the different ways that individuals learn. It also discusses multi-sensory materials that aide in learning.

Far from being an overnight success, Dr. Warren has worked in many different public and private school systems primarily in the area of disabilities. After witnessing how difficult it is for struggling students to even obtain what has been mandated to them by law, she realized that she needed to create her own counseling and educational business in order to truly be able to make a difference.

Key takeaways

  1. Dr. Erica Warren is using her knowledge and power to advocate for public education that is fair to all.
  2. Dr. Erica Warren’s frustrations with her learning drove her to get degrees to be a reliable source to fight for the rights of struggling learners.
  3. Dr. Erica Warren also has instituted programs at colleges for students with learning obstacles.

Is your child struggling in school?

Get your free personalized learning roadmap

You describe what you see at home. We turn it into a plan you start this week.

  • Answer 5 short questionnaires about what you already notice, 30–45 minutes at your own kitchen table
  • Your child sits no test and gets no score: nothing to schedule, nothing for them to dread
  • You do the answering, the AI does the writing, and a person reviews it before it reaches you
  • Access all 40+ courses instantly: reading, math, focus, processing and more, with new ones added regularly

Why we use AI, plainly: it writes from a knowledge base our team maintains and audits. We work through it line by line and pull anything the evidence stops supporting. The roadmap you get on Tuesday reflects what we corrected on Monday, and a human still reads it before you do.

Your school district must evaluate your child free of charge if you ask in writing, whatever your income and whatever the outcome (US, 34 CFR 300.111 and 300.301(b)). That route takes time and answers a different question than you do. This one starts today, from what you already know.

Your answers stay yours. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not hand identifiable assessment data to outside AI companies to train their models.

A screener is a starting point, not a diagnosis. If your child might need formal accommodations (an IEP or 504 plan), or you suspect a vision, hearing or medical cause, pursue a professional evaluation too. That is the only route to those supports.
