Unlock your child’s brain with NeuralCode Critical Thinking
As seen on TEDx, NeuralCode Critical Thinking is the revolutionary, science-driven method that will easily transform your child into an elite critical thinker. For the first time in history, there’s a science-driven method for unlocking your child’s critical thinking abilities, setting them up to achieve the most success, rewarding life.
"Dr. Pearlman is the “Steve Jobs” of critical thinking.' - Jayme Anne Goldberg, Founder Consequential Flowers & BloomRadius.






"Dr. Pearlman’s revolutionary methods for teaching critical thinking finally make advanced thinking skills available to everyone in the world."
Ken Bain, Ph.D., President, Best Teachers Institute.
"Dr. Pearlman's program is a quantum leap forward. His groundbreaking programming and in-depth research into multiple fields—neuroscience, education, behavioural change— will empower everyone to fulfil their dreams."
JW Wilson, Executive Director, The Learning Code Institute.
"No other method of critical thinking instruction approaches what Dr. Pearlman has accomplished."
Louis Newman, Ph.D. Author, Thinking Critically in College: The Essential Handbook for Student Success, Dean of Academic Advising at Stanford University (ret.)
How important is critical thinking to your child’s future?
The A.I.-Proof Job Skill:
A recent article in the Journal of Intelligence concluded that critical thinking skills may be the essential AI-proof skills for careers in the future.
Academic Performance:
Many research studies show that critical thinking improves academic performance across all subjects.
Critical thinking improves the following academic qualities: motivation to learn, reading and writing, executive function, deep understanding, communication, and retention.
High-stakes Life Decisions
Researcher study: “Critical thinking ability is a better predictor of life decisions than intelligence.”
National Association of Colleges and Employers (2019): critical thinking was the only skill rated as “essential” by 100% of the employers surveyed.
Careers
The World Economic Forum (2020) rated critical thinking skills as becoming the most in-demand skills heading into 2025.
National Association of Colleges & Universities: 93% of CEO’s say that “critical thinking is more important than [a] college major.”
The Office of the European Union announced that “critical thinking” and related skills are “requirements to navigate our increasingly complex world.”
A 2016 report in Australia found that job seekers starting out in their careers can expect to earn over $7500 more if they have recognized problem solving skills. The same report demonstrated an increase of 158% in jobs requiring critical thinking skills.


What’s holding you back?
At The Critical Thinking Institute, we know you’re a parent who understands the vital role critical thinking plays in your child’s future. But we also know you’re frustrated.
Traditional education often stifles critical thinking instead of nurturing it.
Social media and screen time undermine your child’s ability to think independently.
Most critical thinking tools fail to deliver real results. (70 neuroscientists recently debunked popular “brain games” as ineffective.)
You want your child to become an independent thinker, but you’re overwhelmed by the lack of effective, science-backed solutions. You need an easy, results-driven method. We’re here to deliver that.
Why NeuralCode Critical Thinking is your Solution
The Critical Thinking Institute's NeuralCode method works so well because it taps into natural brain function, teaching kids to think more effectively in all areas of life.
Just as kids learn reading, writing, and math, we’ve now unlocked the science that teaches them critical thinking.
We’re the only program that offers parents a short video explaining the science behind each lesson, giving you full confidence in the research driving our proven success.




"Young Thinker's Accelerator taught me everything I wanted to know about thinking that I didn't learn in school. "
"I never thought I would like this program, but I LOVE it. I'm never stuck in my ideas anymore."
"I can define critical thinking and know how to use the fact that my brain gets confused as a superpower."

NeuralCode Critical Thinking: Young Minds
- 35 animated 10-minute lessons!Â
- Bonus videos for parents about the science behind each lesson.
- A new lesson every 72 hours!
- Questions and reflections for success.
Section 1: What is Critical Thinking?
Your child will discover how the brain thinks, where it goes wrong for people, and how to harness its natural power for real critical thinking.
Section 2: The 5 Brain-Centered Rules
Your child will learn the “rules” of critical thinking, gaining tools to recognize ineffective brain patterns and unlock deeper, more effective thinking.
Section 3: Turning NeuralCode into Action
Your child will master how to use the NeuralCode method to shift from instinctive, shallow thinking to advanced critical thinking that applies to school, life, and beyond.
Section 4: Deeper Application
Your child will master applying the NeuralCode to academics and everyday situations—boosting skills in reading, writing, communication, and fostering empathy and compassion.

Our breakthrough NeuralCode Critical Thinking method is the only one in the world that transforms essential cognitive functions into advanced thinking skills. We did the hard work of cracking the critical-thinking code so that it is easy for kids to learn.
