ThinkRx
What is ThinkRx?
ThinkRx is a fully integrated system of drills and training exercises that are delivered in an intense, one-on-one environment, and are designed to attack and rapidly correct weak or underdeveloped cognitive learning skills. It is not designed to tutor or teach students academic subjects, rather it will develop the underlying skills required to learn effectively. Cognitive skills - auditory processing, visual processing, short and long term memory, comprehension, logic and reasoning, and attention skills - are fundamental to a person's ability to receive, process, and retain information. The ThinkRx training program strengthens these skills allowing the student to learn efficiently.
How it works
Students begin their relationship at LearningRx through an assessment of their existing cognitive abilities. This allows the experts at LearningRx to identify any weak cognitive skills. A custom training program is then designed to strengthen the weak skills and integrate and enhance the entire cognitive skill set.
Nonacademic Training
LearningRx does not teach academic subject matter; rather, it trains the underlying cognitive skills required to learn efficiently and effectively. The drills are structured in a nonacademic manner, using exercises not tied to an academic discipline. This enables us to counteract any frustrations an individual might typically have with trying to learn academic subjects, and turns the cognitive training into a positive and enjoyable experience.
A Powerful, Unique Methodology
Four fundamental training techniques are combined to set ThinkRx apart as an effective cognitive skills training program.-
One-on-one Training: This creates an environment of individual support and attention that maintains an atmosphere of immediate positive reinforcement and error correction.
-
Sequencing: New exercises and training are introduced in a logical order from simple to complex. This enables quick mastery of new material and constant reinforcement of earlier training gains.
-
Loading: Individual training tasks are layered upon one another to progressively increase in difficulty. This promotes rapid mastery of skills and embeds the new skills at an automatic, subconscious level.
-
Intensity: Training is delivered at a rapid pace with techniques that create and maintain a high level of intensity. Students are pushed past their comfort zone to more challenging but achievable levels. They progress fast enough to see and enjoy the growth in their own ability, but not so fast that they become frustrated and discouraged.
Rapid Progress and Lasting Changes
These techniques are administered to the student over a 12-week period. Certified LearningRx trainers lead three, one-hour sessions each week with the student. Parents or guardians are required to provide an additional four hours of home training and reinforcement. Students in the program see significant improvements throughout training.
If you or someone you know struggles to learn or read, weak underlying cognitive skills are likely the root cause. If this is the cause of the learning difficulty, it can be corrected and you can experience a lifetime of faster, easier learning and reading.
