Lindamood-Bell Learning Processes reviews

A quote from the director of my center: "we teach reading, not character." This comment was in response to complaints from clinicians about a six-year-old girl who repeatedly hit, kicked, bit, spit on, and swore at those who tried to teach her. She did not receive any sort of consequence, as that was not part of the job. In general, the job of clinician at LBLP is limited to prescriptive, rote work forced on students for hours at a time. This is much more of a skill and drill environment than an environment encouraging critical thinking and when students get upset or act out, clinicians must endure ridiculous treatment in addition to laughably low pay. The work for both students and clinicians is tedious and repetitive. Clinicians are typically kept on summer hours or just below full-time hours in order to avoid providing benefits. Few opportunities to move up. If interested in any type of real teaching, not the place to go.

Long training period- you may be able to wiggle out of retraining if your center head knows you are good. It can be stressful working with some of the kids, but other employees are very supportive and share ideas for strategies to use. I received pay raises only as standard protocol- it didn't seem like there were merit raises, and there was no opportunity for growth unless you worked there full time for years.
