Lindamood-Bell Academy Online–Education Wherever You Are

Jun 7, 2019
 
 

At Lindamood-Bell Academy, we provide an online education that’s right for your family. Our virtual instruction embodies Lindamood-Bell quality in all regards—our school is personal, flexible, and interactive.

 

One student, Noah, takes advantage of Academy to get what his mother calls “the best education of his life” while joining his parents on their global travels.

 

She says, “I believe that LBA offers great value.  For the first time in Noah’s history of schooling, I feel that he is free to learn at his own pace, without judgment.  

 

The remote learning program is wonderful for our family. This week, Noah is studying from the Netherlands and Austria.  The fact that Academy is offered online allows our family to travel, while our son still receives a top-notch education.

 

The Lindamood-Bell Academy team is easily accessible; there is an open line of communication between teachers, staff, and parents. I feel very comfortable picking up the phone to communicate my thoughts, and my questions are always answered quickly and efficiently.”

 

Meet Noah!

 

 

A great solution for many students

✔ Learners Who Need A Flexible Environment

Lindamood-Bell Academy is located where each child needs to learn. Students can attend in person, online, or both. This works well for homeschool families, students who live far from a center, have health challenges, or who will be traveling or moving during the school year. Your child’s schooling will stay on track wherever the world takes them.

 

✔ Students With Challenging Schedules

Academy scheduling is flexible, and students move through the curriculum at their own pace. Students who have careers or other obligations that interfere with traditional school schedules will attend a school that works with their schedule. Breaks for travel, performances, and more are easily incorporated.

 

Lindamood-Bell Academy online offers a unique opportunity for students to thrive.

My Lindamood-Bell Academy Story

-from Cassie, Noah’s mom

 

In my eyes, the Academy just makes sense.  Always before, there was a disconnect between school curriculum and Lindamood-Bell techniques.  Now, in Academy, Lindamood-Bell techniques are used to help understand the academic curriculum. Noah has been able to see how to actually apply the strategies learned at Lindamood-Bell in his academic coursework.  Additionally, integrating Seeing Stars, Visualizing and Verbalizing, and On Cloud Nine into the school year, created a further connection between effective strategies and actual coursework.

 

Our family has been so thrilled with the one-on-one attention of LBA. Noah is supported as he journeys through his academic curriculum.  He is free to go at his own pace, without judgment. There is time to stop and review, and he is not forced to move on until he demonstrates mastery.  Additionally, the LBA team is easily accessible. There is an open line of communication between teachers, staff, and parents. I feel very comfortable picking up the phone to communicate my thoughts, and my questions are always answered quickly and efficiently.

 

We have been able to change and manipulate Noah’s daily work based on his specific needs.  For instance, this year, we decided that he was still weak in his writing, so we decided to implement writing and editing into his curriculum more often.

 

Overall, I believe that LBA offers great value.  Noah is receiving one-on-one instruction from his teachers, and he has a consultant that is carefully following his progress.  For the first time in Noah’s history of schooling, I feel that he is free to learn at his own pace, without judgment. I believe that he is in good hands when he is studying in the center, and the remote learning program is wonderful for our family.  This week, Noah is studying from the Netherlands and Austria. The fact that Academy is offered online allows our family to travel, while still receiving a top-notch education.

 

As a former educator, I know that Noah is receiving the best education of his life.

📖 1998: The Lindamood Phoneme Sequencing® (LiPS®) Program is published.

Lindamood-Bell co-founder and speech-language pathologist Patricia Lindamood and her daughter, Phyllis Lindamood, revised the Auditory Discrimination in Depth (ADD) program and published the Lindamood Phoneme Sequencing® Program for Reading, Spelling, and Speech (LiPS®).

The LiPS® Program helps students develop phonemic awareness by teaching them to discover and label the mouth movements that produce speech sounds. Students learn to identify and sequence sounds in words, then apply those skills to reading, spelling, and speech.

📚 1997: Two new programs become part of the Lindamood-Bell story.

Nanci Bell published Seeing Stars®, designed to develop symbol imagery, the ability to visualize letters and words for reading and spelling. Long overlooked in literacy instruction, symbol imagery addresses what is a missing piece for many struggling readers.

Nanci Bell and Kimberly Tuley also published On Cloud Nine® Math, designed to develop numerical imagery for number sense and mathematical reasoning.

Nearly 30 years later, both programs remain core to Lindamood-Bell instruction and our commitment to helping students learn to their potential.
