“This has been a remarkable journey,” said Nanci Bell, co-founder and CEO of Lindamood-Bell. “In 1986, people came to San Luis Obispo from near and far to get instruction in our programs. As demand grew, it wasn’t long before our students began asking us to come to them. So, we opened learning centers in other locations, began collaborating with schools, and hosted our workshops across the country and around the world. We’re proud of what Lindamood-Bell has become today, and honored to help so many individuals reach their potential to learn.”
