Trainer and student high five at LearningRx

Brain Training and Autism

LearningRx explained so much and provided hope for a way to give our intelligent girl a brighter future. “

Finding help with autism shouldn’t be a challenge. LearningRx makes it easy to get started with brain training. By customizing our training plans, we embrace the neurodiversity that characterizes autism. More importantly, this approach allows us to tailor training to each learner’s individual needs.

While brain training isn’t a treatment for autism, it has helped individuals with autism improve core cognitive skills. These include skills used for:

Reading & writing
Math
Focus & concentration
Memorization & mental processing

While individual results may vary, we’d love the opportunity to work with you or your child!

Brain Training or Tutoring for Autism?

Kids and teens with autism sometimes have trouble with school or with specific subjects. In response, parents often turn to a tutor — or even an autism tutoring service. While this can be helpful for some students, others see little benefit from tutoring.

One reason for this is that autism tutoring is focused on delivering subject matter. Students can spend more time with the material, but tutoring won’t change their underlying learning and thinking skills.

Brain training takes an alternative approach, focusing on the skills that students need for thinking and learning.

By helping kids and teens with autism develop new learning and thinking skills, brain training has been a game-changer for many students on the spectrum.

Our Approach is Backed by Science

In fact, one out of every 22 LearningRx graduates has been diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) before starting brain training!

Our experience shows how brain training programs have helped kids, teens, and adults on the autism spectrum. Between 2010 and 2022, kids and teens with an ASD diagnosis improved learning and thinking skills by 3.1 years on average after brain training with LearningRx!

He plans ahead, he’s less reactive to adverse situations, less impulsive with decision making. He seems a lot more mature. And of course, he is reading voluntarily now!

Elizabeth (Huntsville, TX)

We had an excellent experience at LearningRx with our daughter. Really helped her master concepts and curriculum that had been a struggle before. Brad is a top-notch instructor. The program is well designed and so effective. We have the seen benefits of the program carry forward for years. We are very grateful to have gotten this recommendation.

DS (Savage, MN)

Shannon and Sofia did a spectacular job of encouraging and training a kid who has already significantly struggled in school and was very reluctant to engage in learning to open up out of her shell. They did an amazing job! To be fair, this is not an inexpensive tutoring service, but there is the potential for great improvement for kids who may have struggled with other academic support programs.

Matthew (Charlottesville, VA)

His schoolwork and grades are improved. His communication at home is also better.

Ms Rudd (Texarkana, TX)

It is a good place because they helped my son. I saw his improvement in reading, math, attention, memory and less distraction.

Nawal (St. Paul, MN)

LearningRx is an incredible learning facility! When I first enrolled my niece, she struggled with reading and comprehension. It was incredibly hard to keep her focused. We feared that she may have to repeat 2nd grade but after the patience and guidance of her trainer, Mr. Phil, she ended the school year with Honor Roll and a ticket to 3rd grade! Donesa and her staff are amazing.

Hanna (Shreveport, LA)

I recently took an assessment at LearningRx along with my son, and I was very impressed with the entire experience. The staff was professional, welcoming, and explained everything clearly. The environment was clean, organized, and made us feel comfortable from the start. My 15-year-old son has now started brain training sessions, and we’re already seeing how engaged and motivated he is. It’s been a great step for his development, and I appreciate the personalized attention and structure they provide.

Marissa (Houston Central, TX)

The growth our child had during and after this program has been amazing! He improved in every aspect of his life, from school to home life.

Celina (Indianapolis NE, IN)

The trainers really care about the students, and they push each student to reach the next goal. The training is very motivating, and it has helped my kids in levels of reading, motivation and confidence.

Julie (Woodbury, MN)

LearningRx has be amazing! We started this because I wanted my son to feel more confident about himself and his schoolwork especially math and not only is he doing better at math and all subjects he is more confident than he has ever been. To see him come home and say “Mom I love math now, it’s easier and I can do it. I am so proud of myself” It just blows me away. It actually brings tears to my eyes, because as a mom you want the best for your child and Lori and Mrs. Regina and the whole LearningRx has been a blessing to my son and our entire family!! EVERYONE SHOULD TRY THEM OUT!!

Ariel (Texarkana, TX)

My child’s improvements were very impressive and worth every penny! Bella has shown significant improvements in school and at home. We are very proud of her success!

Ms Thorton (Texarkana, TX)

My son has been attending LearningRx for just a month, and he loves it! He really enjoys the challenging games and looks forward to each session. His coach is very nice and has made a great connection with him. I can already see little improvements in his focus and engagement. My son usually resists new activities, but he’s been surprisingly enthusiastic about LearningRx.

Marcy (Eagan)

We stumbled upon LearningRx, thinking it was worth a shot— after graduating under a year later, we can confidently say it helped our child make better connections and improved her working memory. The staff and director are like family to us; they nurtured and encouraged our daughter more than just academically; they absolutely instilled confidence and kept her motivated throughout her training. Highly, highly recommend for kids and adults with memory problems, ADHD, problems with executive function and disorganization, or just needing a boost in productivity and efficiency.

KD (Franklin, TN)

He was getting distracted really easily by other students and noises in the classroom and it hindered his ability to stay on task. I was nervous about the thought of him beginning to drive with how easily distracted he can get but after this program I have seen a huge difference in him. If your child is struggling to pay attention in a distracting school environment, feeling like they’re stupid, or not enjoying school because they’re having trouble completing tasks then this program is for them. Give yourself or your child this gift it’s worth it. I highly recommend this program!

Allie (Colorado Springs, CO)

After seeing the growth our son has gained, it is a no brainer everyone and anyone could benefit from it.

Tammy (Big Lake, MN)

LearningRx is a truly amazing program. Once we started with LearningRx after about 3 months into our sessions, she was able to just pick up her books and go without fighting/avoiding her work – especially her vocab, reading, and spelling assignments.

Tiffany (Chandler, AZ)

LearningRx has a positive and fun environment that makes learning fun for my 8-year-old who needs help with reading. All the staff are friendly and care about each individual child. In just a few short months I have seen a more positive attitude and more self confidence in my son.

Nicole (San Antonio NE, TX)

I’m starting training myself (with my 12-year-old son and father) to see if the virtual version holds up—a trial is available. If you want real-world listening and thinking skills built with grit, nuance, and scientific grounding, this program is worth your time and money. It’s a game-changer.

Rae (Chattanooga, TN)

We are so grateful to have found LearningRx and the awesome team there. I have seen the confidence in both my daughters grow since working with their trainers. My girls are always excited to go, and always happy afterwards. I believe their ability to focus, stay on task and follow multi-step directions has increased. They are both on honor roll and doing well in school and at home!

Cara (Franklin, TN)

This program made a huge difference in my son’s cognitive skills! In pre-assessment, he scored well below average in 7 out of 9 skills. By the end of the program, he scored average to well above average in 7 of the 10 skills, while still showing huge growth in the two lower scoring skills. I highly recommend this program if your child struggles at all in any area!

Jennifer (River, Valley, AR)

We were incredibly happy with the results after the completion of his training. Jeri and Kai were very attentive to our son’s development and continually kept us updated on his progress.

Sarah (Richmond Hill, ON)

The dedicated and amazing team provided exceptional guidance and one-on-one training that truly made a difference. Not only has my son gained confidence, but he is also enjoying school more and performing better in his studies. The personalized approach and supportive environment made learning enjoyable and engaging for him. I highly recommend this program to any parent looking to make a positive change in their child’s educational journey.

Liezl (Katy, TX)

Zach used to say all of his friends were much smarter than him and he does not say that anymore. He seems much more confident in his ability to tackle his academic schedule.

Angela (Excelsior, MN)

They truly know how to make kids feel at ease, turning what could be a stressful experience into an exciting and enjoyable one. I believe every parent should take the opportunity to assess their child’s learning abilities. Understanding where they are academically and cognitively is so important for effective learning and growth. LearningRx in Shreveport is a game-changer. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to give their child a solid foundation for success!

TND (Shreveport, LA)

Our plan was individually tailored to our daughter’s needs, with essential measure of success and effectiveness built into it. Everyone involved, from the director to the trainer, support staff, etc. were very helpful. Lastly, high levels of communication were maintained and encouraged throughout the process.

David (Charlottesville, VA)

My daughter was having a hard time and school and LearningRx changed that. Her confidence is remarkable now.

Ms Rosales (Texarkana, TX)

From our first conversations with LearningRx staff, the assessment process, starting our training schedule to now where we have established a routine, we have felt well informed and cared for by the staff. We receive frequent progress check ins and can observe training sessions anytime we like. The LearningRx staff do a great job with the range of diverse learners and seem to find ways to keep them all engaged. We would definitely recommend the Shoreview location to any family who does not know where to turn next to support their child’s educational roadblocks.

Anna (Shoreview, MN)

Math was always a struggle for her and in the last month, she’s been completing her assignments on her own without asking for help at all (she used to ask for help at least a few times every assignment) and she’s been getting 90+% on every one! Her attitude toward school in general has improved tremendously. She no longer drags her feet when it’s time to work; has a smile on her face instead!

Huk (Fort Collins, CO)

My three homeschooled sons are dyslexic and have received services at LearningRx Dublin via the Jon Peterson Scholarship. We’ve worked with several Brain Trainers and always benefited from their dedication and knowledge. The one-on-one interaction has been so valuable. Sarah and her staff are knowledgeable about the public school system and committed to meeting the diverse needs of their clients. We really appreciate their dedication and flexibility to meet the needs of our sons.

Kimberly (Dublin, OH)

My son started at LearningRx struggling with letter recognition and letter sounds. After just 30 sessions, he is reading and testing above average for his age and grade. The trainers genuinely care, and Gina really helped us understand where our son was struggling, and where improvement was needed. Seeing our son build his confidence and now thriving academically has been such a blessing. 100% recommend LearningRx.

Jennifer (San Antonio NE, TX)

Our daughter Addy is spelling better, can stay focused longer, and is much more confident in school.

Courtney (Milwaukee-Brookfield, WI)

Our son came into the program while in grade 1 with significant anxiety when it came to his class performance. This was most striking when it came to reading. There were concerns with ADHD and possibly dyslexia. He is listening better and his reading has taken huge strides forward. You can see how this has improved his confidence.

Jodi (Chandler, AZ)

Noah appears to have more patience at home. Prior to classes at LearningRx I felt there were constant “battles” to get homework done, chores at home, and day-to-day requests. If Noah becomes overwhelmed, he is able to communicate that to me in a more positive way.

Marcy (Chandler, AZ)

She is confident in what she can do. Her reading and writing skills have improved, and her vision of her future is very clear now.

Giovana (Huntsville, TX)

Itty is way more confident in her abilities as a student. She can finally read fluently and is able to decipher written language. She has said that school feels easier in general and makes more sense.

Kim (Milwaukee-Brookfield, WI)

Audrina has grown so much over the 6 months she had training! We are so grateful for everyone at LearningRx Fort Collins for helping our daughter achieve her goals for school. She is able to comprehend her new material, have a shining confidence, motivation to keep learning, better attitude. She is able to perform at a higher reading level then when she started.

Casey (Fort Collins, CO)

He now has confidence to raise his hand to answer questions out loud in class & reads out loud when asked to at school & church. He is making good grades & is very proud of himself as we are all proud of him! He no longer hates school & is looking forward to being in Junior High. He will begin the LearningRx reading comprehension program this summer to help boost him even farther!

Susan (Shreveport, LA)

I see improvements in my son’s focus and grades at school. In my opinion, the program works. But Lisa and other staff are great in their performance. They show results.

Dewi (Sugar Land, TX)

Will is now interested in reading on his own — he’s diving into books. It’s great to see him grow in this area, where he was not willing to do before. Will has grown in confidence and his self-esteem and is better able to deal with challenges when he’s faced with time.

Kelly (Chaska, MN)

Improvement in learning skills, confidence, and excelling in school.

Andrew (Indianapolis NE, IN)

LearningRx was the best decision we ever made for our daughter. She was struggling with reading, and her confidence was very low in school. Mary was her instructor and exceeded in every way. I saw major improvements within her program time frame. Very happy with the results.

Sandy (Charlottesville, VA)

Both of my boys when through brain training. Our goal was to fill in any educational gaps and improve their ACT scores. Both boys ended up in the 30s for their ACT. We love LearningRx Texarkana and would recommend this program to others!

Ms Miller (Texarkana, TX)

Micheal , Diana , Austin my boys love you guys! You all are magical!

Fatima (Short Hills, NJ)

Improvements in maturity, better grades, a positive outlook on life.

Julia (Staunton-Harrisonburg, VA)

The staff took time to ensure Terri reached her potential and adjusted as needed.

Sherri (Huntsville, TX)

Camila was really having a hard time with the language barrier in Kinder and overall learning. LearningRx Texarkana gave Camila a trainer that spoke both languages and maximized her growth with Brain Training and ReadRx. Camila is more confident now. Her teachers rave on how quickly they saw a change. No more tears to go to school!

Ms Moreno (Texarkana, TX)

LearningRx has become a game changer for our girl, reading problems is history in our daughter’s life. Marked improvement in reading, more confident and above all well organized and ready to tackle problems related to school.

Jacinta (Huntsville, TX)

Our son’s attention span and just simple ability to focus on activities is so much better than it was when we started. This enables him to actually listen to teachers at school and retain the information.

Ellen (Milwaukee-Brookfield, WI)

I like the importance placed upon reading. I have witnessed my son reading faster and comprehending much more of the information.

Tanicka (Coon Rapids, MN)

The reason why I could succeed was that I was on ADHD medication, but the medication made me extremely depressed and enraged all of the time. When I stopped taking it, I was filled with great joy because of my newfound freedom. But something was still wrong. Without the medication, I forgot the first part of the sentence by the end of the second part of the sentence. My imagination never turned off, and despite going to school an hour early and tutoring for an hour after school, I barely passed with Cs. Then I enrolled in LearningRx. Within three months, I was on fire. I could concentrate, handle awkward social situations, find motivation, put my creative ideas in paper. I attacked school with newfound strength. Last year I was the slowest kid in the class, but this year I am one of the fastest and smartest.

Mark (Shreveport, LA)

While individual results may vary, we’d love the opportunity to work with you or your child!
