Reading and Math Tutoring
Serving Students in California with Learning Disabilities
My son started showing signs of dyslexia in kindergarten. Considering my family has a history of dyslexia, I caught them right away and decided with the help of his teachers, to get him tested. Although my son is too young for a proper diagnosis, the tests showed that he had most of the "red flags." After developing an individualized treatment plan, we began working with the therapists at Thriving Minds right away.
He has been receiving services 2 times a week for 1 hour since 2014. The changes I have seen in his reading, writing, oral communication, and self confidence has been leaps and bounds. He is slightly above reading level at school compared his classmates and has the confidence to raise his hand and participate in class. He went from being "the shy boy in Pre -K" to a LEADER excited and ready to start 2nd grade.
We love Thriving Minds for so many reasons:
- The greetings and smiles from all the therapists when we walk in the door
- The positive energy my son talks about during his 1 hour sessions
- They keep the sessions engaging with activities and games that compliment the academics
- Knowledge and professionalism of the staff
- Consistent communication with his therapists on progress and mastery
Thank you Thriving Minds for helping my son reach his learning potential!!!

A year ago my daughter was informally diagnosed with dyslexia and had already fallen behind in reading in her first grade classroom. We quickly realized she needed outside help and so began working with Andie from thriving minds 2 days/week as she entered into second grade. At the beginning of the year her reading tested at fall of First grade, at the end of second grade she tested at level for the first time! We have continued with tutoring through the summer and are seeing our daughter read more fluently and with greater confidence. The confidence she is building through tutoring is especially important because she is now willing to read not only to us but also her brother and sometimes independently (something I never expected). I am also grateful for Andie's genuine care towards my daughter. She is always well prepared with new plans, excited to work with my daughter and willing to be flexible as needed. And of course it helps that my daughter looks forward to working with her each day.

Thriving minds has been such a great experience. There patience, knowledge and encouragement has helped my son tremendously. He enjoys going and working with Ms. Andie who has been able to connect with him quickly and made strides towards our goals of him becoming a stronger reader.

My son was diagnosed with an SLD (Specific Learning Disability) a year and a half ago and started tutoring with Danielle for reading and comprehension. Danielle is wonderful with kids and my son really enjoys working with her and the staff at Thriving Minds. My son's reading and comprehension skills have improved since he started tutoring and he has received many tools that he can apply during his lessons at school. But most of all he feels more confident and tells me that his tutoring is helping him to read and understand better.​

When my son was first diagnosed with dyslexia, we were unsure how to help. Thriving Minds has been wonderful for him. Not only is he reading now, but I see a new confidence in him thanks to their support. He loves working with his tutors, and they find ways to make learning fun. I would highly recommend Thriving Minds to anyone who has a child with learning differences. Thank you!

Our daughter attended Thriving Minds Learning Center to help her with English and math, and my experience was very positive. The team- Danielle, Nique, Halina, and Kyera- are knowledgable, well-experienced, and approachable. We noticed immediately how our daughter's skills in both reading and math have significantly improved since our attending tutoring sessions. They took the time to explain things thoroughly and were always available to answer questions. I really appreciate the dedicated support of the tutors and their research -based programs. Overall, I highly recommend Thriving Minds Learning Center to parents looking to support their kids in improving their academic performance in English and math.
