Problems you prevent (or mitigate) when using the Hábilmente program:

1.Low academic performance: By developing logical-numerical and verbal reasoning skills, the program helps students improve reading comprehension and mathematical abilities, leading to overall better academic achievement. 


2.Learning difficulties: By providing students with specific tools and activities to strengthen cognitive skills, the program can help identify and address learning difficulties early, enabling more effective and timely intervention. 


3.Lack of self-confidence: As students progress and succeed in developing key cognitive skills, they gain confidence in their academic abilities and feel more secure when facing new tasks and challenges. 


4.Lack of motivation for learning: By offering interactive and engaging activities that spark students' interest, the program helps maintain their motivation and commitment to learning over time. 


5.Cognitive skills gap: By focusing on the development of both logical-numerical and verbal reasoning, the program helps bridge the cognitive skills gap among students, promoting a more equitable and accessible education for all. 


6.Limitations in holistic development: By enhancing cognitive development, the program complements other aspects of students' holistic growth, such as social, emotional, and creative skills, contributing to their overall well-being and personal growth.
