Our Learning Centers
Lindamood-Bell has evolved
from a small Learning Center in San Luis Obispo, CA
to an organization with over 60 Learning Centers
and dozens of seasonal clinics.
When you open our door you’ll notice
a difference right away.
Our welcoming and comfortable space sets the climate for student learning.
We are committed to teaching
all children and adults to read and comprehend. Our research-validated instruction is our foundation.
We strive to provide exceptional instruction
at each of our Learning Centers, where we can control the primary factors that impact the quality of how our programs are implemented with students.
What To Expect
Learn More About Our Instruction
Our instruction helps a wide range of individuals, children & adults, by developing the language processing
that is critical to becoming a proficient learner.

Apply symbol and concept imagery to arithmetic and mathematical reasoning. This improves computational skills and the ability to solve word problems.
Lindamood-Bell does not diagnose, or label, any individuals we work with; however, many students have come to us with a previous diagnosis.
These self-reported labels have included:
Dyslexia, Hyperlexia, ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) {Asperger’s Syndrome, Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)}, Specific Learning Disability; Others:Down Syndrome, CAPD, Fragile X, TBI, Deaf, Gifted
Many adults experience weakness in one or more sensory-cognitive areas. These challenges may affect their work performance and limit their opportunities for advancement.
Instruction is differentiated and specific to the adult student’s need. Many of our adult students find great success.
