What is iLS?
iLs (Integrated Listening System) is a multi-sensory program for improving brain function. It is an enjoyable activity, or “exercise,” which can be customized for all ages and skill levels for implementation in clinic, school or home.

Based on clinically proven outcomes, iLs programs strengthen existing pathways and create new neural connections/pathways in the brain (“neuroplasticity”). As these neurological connections grow stronger, language skills and emotional/psychological functions, such as self-confidence and regulation, also tend to improve.

The improvements in brain function are based on the premise that our higher brain functions – the “cortical functions” such as language, cognitive skills, socialization – rely and depend upon how well sensory input is received and processed as it enters the central nervous system and is relayed to the upper brain. iLs improves processing at both the sub-cortical and cortical levels.

Clear Pathways uses iLs methods in its therapy and the system is a major influence on our two e-books.

I just came from Rachel's first parent teacher conference of the year and her teachers are blown away by her academic improvement. She is in the top of her class and really enjoys school now. Thanks to Clear Pathways Learning Services her school says that her test scores are so high now that she should be in the gifted and talented program. That is pretty amazing for a kid with a severe hearing impairment that has spent the last 4 years in special education classes. We can't thank you enough for what you have done with Rachel. You have taught her to be a superstar!
