Our Team

Welcome! I’m Lindsey Powell, Center Director of LearningRx in Maple Grove. It is such an honor and so rewarding to be able to help so many student’s close academic skill gaps by strengthening their cognitive skills. I began my professional life as a teacher, first as a classroom teacher then managing a tutoring center. Over time I found myself looking for answers on how to better support struggling learners. Upon joining LearningRx in 2013, I found the answer. Since then I have worked with thousands of students in Maple Grove, Plymouth, Wayzata, Anoka, Rogers, Elk River and the whole northwest metro area. There is nothing more rewarding than watching a child develop the necessary skills to succeed and choose to read for pleasure. I look forward to meeting you!

I’ve been working at LearningRx since Spring 2013. Prior to that, I had an internship at the Center for Spirituality and Healing where I explored the effects of mindfulness on the brain. I enjoy working with students of all ages and adults, helping them to improve their skills and achieve their goals. Whether we are working on reading, attention, or self-accountability with school, I love to challenge clients to move beyond their current skill levels to reach new heights.

As Director of First Impressions I have the privilege of being the initial contact as the families enter the center. I enjoy getting to know all of the family members and seeing how everyone grows while the student goes through our programs. Watching the enthusiasm, confidence and maturity that these students develop over the course of the program is the thing I love most about my job!
