Mrs. Nereida Bucio Gómez
Certified Feuerstein Mediator & Literacy Coach
"Everyone has a story to tell."
With 29 years in education—from bilingual classroom teacher to assistant principal to literacy coach—I now help learners of all ages find their voice and unlock their cognitive potential through Feuerstein mediation.
The Feuerstein Philosophy
"Intelligence is not fixed—it can be developed and enhanced at any age through quality mediated learning experiences."
This belief drives everything we do at Elevate Learning Solutions. Rather than focusing solely on what to learn, we help learners discover how to think more effectively.
Who Was Reuven Feuerstein?
Professor Reuven Feuerstein (1921-2014) was an Israeli clinical, developmental, and cognitive psychologist known for his theory of intelligence as modifiable.
His groundbreaking work with Holocaust survivors and children with learning challenges led to the development of the Feuerstein Instrumental Enrichment program—a systematic approach to developing cognitive functions.
Today, his methods are used in over 80 countries, helping learners of all ages unlock their potential.
