Brain booster
Unleash brainpower for peak performance at the
Brain Quotient
and Neurofeedback Technology Centre
. The Centre specialises
in offering children and all learners direct real-time, non-invasive
and scientific measurement of brainwave patterns, and neuro-
feedback (NF) training. Using an innovative Korean scanning
device, the change of brainwave bands in static and active

vivid understanding of a child’s brain performance. Then, NF
training programmes and brain-compatible teaching/parenting
approaches are encouraged to help children achieve enjoyable
and effective learning. Visit
