    David’s Mom

  • My daughter was struggling with basic math in the 5th grade. It has been really fascinating to see how the MindMenders process helped kickstart her mind. The coaching she received has drastically improved how she feels about her abilities & has boosted not only her performance but her confidence as well.

    Murphy’s Mom

  • After coming to the MindMenders summer camp, my daughter graduated a year early and is going to attend the Citadel. This was a child who was told in the 5th grade that she needed to be in Special Education for reading & math. I just want to thank you so much for what you did for her.
