About Instruction at Lindamood-Bell

With our personalized programs, students can make years of improvement in literacy and learning skills in a matter of weeks.  

How can your child excel this school year? Read on for typical areas of focus. 

Reading:

Strong readers recognize common words and can sound out unfamiliar words easily, making reading at grade level or above easy and smooth.

Students struggling can learn to read to their full potential this school year. We identify why reading is hard for each student individually and focus on developing the skills they need to become a better reader. Learn about our renowned approach.

Comprehension :

Do words “go in one ear and out the other” for your child? This is more common than you’d think. Weak concept imagery—the ability to image a gestalt (whole)—may be the cause. 

Weakness in concept imagery interferes with reading and listening comprehension, memory, oral vocabulary, critical thinking, and writing. Developing concept imagery can improve comprehension. Learn more about how we develop comprehension here.

Math:

Does your child “hate” math? People who are good at math can easily visualize math concepts. The language of numbers turns into imagery, and they “see” mathematical relationships. 

We can teach your child how to think with numbers. Learn how we solve math “problems” here.
