You Can Count On Lindamood-Bell Instruction!

Australia, Learning Centers

Like many parents, you may be concerned that the recent school disruption has impacted your child’s learning. 

You can count on Lindamood-Bell instruction to help your student catch up or get ahead.

This autumn and winter we’ll open either live online or in-person.

Just like our in-center instruction, our virtual instruction is 100% live and face-to-face.

In a matter of weeks, our evidence-based instruction for reading, comprehension, and math can help your child feel more confident and prepared for school.

✓ Proven effective for students with learning challenges

Our instruction is proven effective for students with challenges that affect learning, including dyslexia, autism, and ADHD. If your child fell further behind this year, we can help. 

✓ Basic Skill Development

School disruptions and online learning caused difficulties for students who did not previously struggle. We develop the sensory-cognitive skills that make schoolwork easier!

✓ Proven Results—In-Person and Online

We added online one-to-one sensory-cognitive instruction to our in-person services back in 2015. Our Learning Centers have provided consistent quality instruction throughout the pandemic. Our approach is proven effective whether your child attends in person or learns from home. 

✓ Engaging Instruction

Our dynamic instruction is one-to-one, face-to-face, online, and in-person. Our energetic instructors use strategies and incentives that keep students engaged throughout sessions. Parents, our live online instruction is not screentime and it is definitely not more of what your child received at school for distance learning!

✓ Safe, In-Person Instruction

We are pleased to offer safe, in-person instruction at many of our locations.  Learn about our health and safety measures. Availability is limited and based on local mandates.

Lindamood-Bell Can Be Your Virtual Teaching Coach

For Schools, Online, Professional Development

 

For years, Lindamood-Bell has partnered with schools to provide quality professional development in our programs. We are happy to offer the lower cost and convenience of telepresence coaching without compromising results for students.

 

Watch teachers providing virtual instruction with the Seeing Stars program.

 

 

After a genuine Lindamood-Bell workshop, live coaching is available. Lindamood-Bell instruction experts, via online video conference, provide program step demonstrations with students, for the benefit of teacher learning. We provide suggestions and feedback to help improve teacher effectiveness. Having an expert “on-site” is an invaluable opportunity for teachers to ask questions about the program steps in real-time.

 

Results from an online reading camp demonstrate a promising model to replicate. By receiving Seeing Stars instruction over four weeks this summer, students made substantial gains correlating to nearly a year’s worth of grade-level growth in key reading skills.

While much about this school year is uncertain, one thing’s for sure—months away from the classroom leads to measurable learning loss in skills like reading and math. This is especially true for students who struggle with learning. 

 

What is the COVID slide?

Education researchers have long described the “summer slide.” Students come back to school out of practice, maybe forgetting some of what they learned. This year’s “COVID slide” is arguably worse. 

An opinion article by The New York Times Editorial Board, The Coronavirus’s Lost Generation of Students raised concerns that the same type of learning loss is likely to occur during the COVID-19 pandemic for many children, regardless of learning difficulties. They cited a study by the Northwest Evaluation Association that suggests students returning to school this fall having made 30% less gain in reading skills and 50% less gain in math skills than in a typical year.

 

Catch Up or Get Ahead

Lindamood-Bell is here to help. With our instruction for reading, comprehension, and math, your student can catch up or get ahead. You can rely on our experience and proven results to make a difference for your child. Identifying strengths and weaknesses is the first step. 

Hear Fiona’s parents discuss their concerns and how Lindamood-Bell instruction was the solution.

 

 

A Learning Ability Evaluation will uncover the strengths and weaknesses affecting school performance. In a thorough results consultation, we will discuss an individualized learning plan to make school easier.
