Lindamood-Bell Learning Processes, a corporation that was founded about 30 years ago and has been in Birmingham since 2002, has become a part of the education community for the Mid-West region. While the corporation has over 41 schools country-wide as well as a few in Italy and Australia, the Birmingham location is the closest spot for students from Canada, Ohio and other nearby states. Since approximately 30% of its students come from Ann Arbor, Lindamood-Bell has opened a summertime satellite location in Ann Arbor. The company's program offers intensive one-on-one reading remediation services for those with learning challenges, focusing on reading strategies and critical thinking. Lindamood-Bell attributes its outstanding success to its one-on-one 4-hour intensive approach, as well as the incredible boost of confidence and self-determination that the program instills in its students.
