Karina Money, Ed.D. is the founder and driving force behind ThinkGym's unique curriculum. Dr. Money is an educational psychologist, university professor, author, and nationally recognized speaker on student success and retention at conferences and universities. She brings over a decade of experience as an educational consultant and university faculty. In her decade of teaching at the college of science, she noticed a disturbing trend. Each semester, the incoming students were less inquisitive, less able to critically think outside of the textbook. Dr. Money quietly decided that something had to be done, someone had to reach these children earlier to foster reasoning and analytical thinking. Fast forward to 2021. Dr. Money decides it is time to leave her post at he university and tackle the root of the problem head-on. ThinkGym is formed to offer an after-school math and STEAM program in Windham, NH. “The goal at ThinkGym is for students to be able to tackle problem-solving with confidence.
