The center offers private math tutoring for grades K-12 using perceptual learning strategies as well as an exciting science lab where students can put their math skills to the test. “Learning should be fun and should grab the student’s interest. The students leave here looking forward to the next session,” says founder Dave Robins.

In addition to the tutoring lessons, the center offers a homework café where students get individualized help with their homework. It’s an inviting atmosphere where kids can grab a snack, have a quiet place to focus and have instructors available to help with math problems.

The idea for The Inspired Mind Learning Center began four years ago when Robins, who works full-time as a Deputy Sheriff, was helping his son complete his homework. “I realized the best way to learn is when you are inspired,” says Robins, who remembered being inspired by science museums he visited as a child. The Inspired Mind Learning Center is modeled after museums like the Ruben H. Fleet Museum in Balboa Park and the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago, where kids have the opportunity to discover the world through experiential learning. “It’s hard to be bored when there’s something fun to discover, touch, turn, or create,” says Robins. “We use math-based activities utilizing hands-on, modern technology including a Van de Graaff generator and tornado machine to create an experience children won’t forget.”

The mission of The Inspired Mind Learning Center is to ignite children’s natural curiosity through one-on-one tutoring and hands on projects.
