KELOWNA TUTORING SERVICES
Tutoring unique as your child's needs & goals
Our Story
Since our inception as a small, home-based tutoring service named Desire2Read, Mind Over Learning has been defined and respected by our dedication to improving the lives of students with reading, writing, comprehension and math learning difficulties.
Inspiration for our small, humble beginnings came from a young boy, who had serious attention and self regulatory disorders, coupled with an extreme language learning disability. Astrid, his mother, was one of those rare personalities who did not accept there was no solution to teaching her son to read. That drive led to the creation of Desire2Read and later Mind Over Learning. Read more about Astrid’s story here.
