Based on 25+ years hands on experience working with clinicians and partnering with Speech Language Pathology (SLP) programs in schools, Sucheta Kamath knew it was important to start with the goal of providing SLPs, some of our most important learning partners, with innovative technology that was designed with their needs at the center. Intuitive user flows, real time data and insights, online gaming, virtual coaches, and personalized secure content, ExQ technology was developed to empower and encourage coaching learners of all ages critically important Executive Function skills.

“Our traditional educational systems lack tools and curriculum to train educators and clinicians to teach students directly about how their brain works.  Executive Function skills collectively influence academic outcomes, but they have not been a part of academic curriculum nor professional teacher development. It is important to teach processes by which students can redirect their attention when they’re distracted, use effective memory skills when they know content is difficult, parse information by sorting and regrouping it so that they can express themselves effectively. That’s why I created ExQ, “shares Sucheta Kamath.  “I’m excited to empower our professionals with technology to build Executive Function focused coaching cultures which will allow students to identify and speak about their own strengths and challenges in learning.  This kind of individualized experience can have a positive impact on their self-awareness and self-management to achieve their goals not only in school, but also in life!”
