Experience & Journey
My name is Mana Mahmoudzadeh, and I am the founder of Mind Spring
Academy. I hold a Master’s degree in Curriculum and Instruction and a
Bachelor’s degree in English Language Teaching. With over eight years of experience in teaching and educational assistance within the Greater Victoria School District, I have developed strong skills in supporting diverse learners. I created Mind Spring Academy to help students build strong skills, confidence, and independence in a warm and supportive learning environment.
Teaching Philosophy
I believe that when children feel capable, they start to shine.
I founded Mind Spring Academy because I saw too many students falling through the cracks, and I wanted to create a space where learning feels manageable and fun. My goal is to show every student that they are smart and talented by helping them master the basics first.
In our classes, we provide a warm and safe environment where we practice together before trying things alone. We focus on building confidence through hands-on support and encouragement. It is
about more than just getting the right answer. We aim here to help your child develop the life-long habits and resilience they need to succeed in everything they do.
