Lindamood-Bell tutoring/approach: Personalized and research-validated programs

Lindamood-Bell offers programs designed to help students improve their reading, math, and spelling skills. Lindamood-Bell's programs are all personalized and tailored to meet the needs of every student. Each student receives hours of one-on-one instruction and learn from research-validated programs. Lindamood-Bell was created to assist children and adults by improving their sensory-cognitive processes. They aim to help people with cognitive diagnoses such as dyslexia, alongside people who wish to improve their cognitive skills in general. Students begin by completing an evaluation assessment to assess their strengths and weaknesses in reading, spelling, math, and comprehension. Students then receive consultation, then instruction. All the while, they are provided support through the instructors and the program. Many parents love the improvements they see in their children. Their children have improved significantly and have graduated at the top of their class. Parents also note the positive growth of their children's confidence since beginning the Lindamood-Bell program. Some parents didn't like the employers working in their program facility. They found them to be a bit dry and cold.
