Brain trainer and student working together on a cognitive training task

Training for Kids & Teens with Learning Disabilities

At LearningRx, we know that learning difficulties are closely tied to cognitive skills. Through brain training, we have helped students of all ages strengthen these skills and address the root cause of learning struggles. In addition to brain training for clients with ADHD, dyslexia, speech delays, and autism, we offer individualized programs for clients with other learning challenges.

LearningRx offers both in-person and online programs, making brain training easily accessible to learners.

My daughter had a known learning disability and had been on an IEP for years with the school. She simply did not understand the work and also could not remember the lessons. This made everything click for her.”

Our Approach is Backed by Science

By creating a program that’s tailored to your child’s needs and goals (or your own!), we can focus on the underlying cause of learning struggles. Our one-on-one programs are a great way to work on cognitive skills and become a more confident learner!

Between 2010 and 2022, more than 2,804 kids and teens with learning disabilities completed a brain training program at LearningRx. On average, these students improved their learning skills by 3.5 years with LearningRx! This includes a gain of 4.8 years in auditory processing.

Personalized Training for Children with Learning Disabilities

LearningRx creates individualized programs for kids and adults with learning disorders and other learning differences.

We start by performing an assessment, which measures the performance of core learning skills. This gives you a detailed picture of learning skills for you or your child, and it can identify which skills are the root cause of learning difficulties.

By identifying which skills have the most room for improvement, we can target these skills in a personalized learning plan!

Brain Training or Tutoring for Learning Disabilities?

There’s an important distinction between brain training and tutoring.

Tutoring tends to focus on delivering information and accommodating each student. In many cases, tutors will find workarounds or accommodations for learning difficulties. This puts students in a position where they can only succeed with accommodations.

Brain training is focused on the root cause of learning difficulties. Our goal is to strengthen underlying learning and thinking skills. When students develop these skills, they can become more confident, more independent, and more successful learners!

Before you get started with brain training, we want to learn more about the challenges experienced by you or your child.

Hear from our Students and Families

The improvement in his overall willingness to work on academics has been wonderful. I am a big fan! He has learned to keep trying, mistakes or wrong answers are okay. He no longer gets as frustrated or upset with wrong answers.

Angela (Staunton-Harrisonburg, VA)

We are so thrilled to have found LearningRX. Halfway through our brain training program, the results have been noticed by my child’s teacher already. They helped me understand the areas that they were weaker and targeted them for improvement in a fun and challenging environment.

Kristin (Tysons, VA)

Caleb worked really well with our son. He was very encouraging throughout all aspects of the training. He made our son feel like he can achieve anything and that it is ok to make a mistake. He was patient and kind and also helped during those difficult days at school.

Stephanie (Woodbury, MN)

I have been few places more encouraging, welcoming, or accepting than our local LearningRX. Far more important than growth in his cognitive abilities — and there was a lot of growth! — we valued the constant emphasis of success being tied to cheerful effort. That made it possible for our son to move beyond his emotions and debilitating perfectionism and allowed him to Keep Trying until he had mastered a difficult task. He also learned that he’s valued for WHO he is, not WHAT he can do.

Ellen (Chattanooga East, TN)

Friendly staff and knowledgeable tutors made my experience at LearningRX Houston top-notch. My child showed significant improvement in a short time!

Vimsoa (Houston, TX)

LearningRX was an enlightening experience for my children. Highly recommend the Eagan location. We worked with Josh, Jacob, and Lily who were fabulous!

Nadyia (Eagan, MN)

Our daughter has improved in reading, which is making school and homework easier. She is more confident, so her behavior is better.

Tifani (Appleton, WI)

From day 1 to the last day training, Trenton’s ability to comprehend and retain any material that’s presented to him has greatly improved and has translated into better grades on his report card. Not only has his comprehension and retention improved, but his confidence has also improved because of LearningRx. It has been great experience with LearningRx, and we would recommend this program to any parent whose child needs that extra helping hand.

Alanna (Stonewall, LA)

Thank you for giving Mila the opportunity to strengthen her skills through your learning program. This experience has been a great start to developing her reading skills.

Katelyn (Richmond Hill, ON)

The team here at LearningRx was really phenomenal! They worked with my son to help him with his logical reasoning and executive functioning skills, and I really see the difference it has made it our lives. The staff was really responsive and flexible, and my son loved his instructors. I really recommend this place for anyone struggling with management or organizational skills!

Eman (Irvine, CA)

We are so thrilled with our sons results. He had a blast and now his focus and attention is so much better. Thank you

Meredith (Irvine, CA)

Hazel started out unwilling to even try when it came to learning. Now, after completing her program at LearningRx she happily completes her homework and comes home from school excited to tell me all about what she learned! Not only have her academic skills improved but her self confidence and her willingness to TRY something new has improved as well.

Kayla (Fort Collins, CO)

We saw measurable results that would benefit others. He connected with Xander and did a great job of motivating and guiding him through the program. Even when Xander had tough times and struggled, he worked with him to keep going.

Tessa (NWA South, AR)

My son participated in a shortened version of training (out of the kindness of Gina’s heart) and my son tested with phenomenal results of improvements in every area. Absolutely amazing!

Sarah (San Antonio, NE, TX)

We used LearningRx for my middle daughter (6yo) and over the course of the program we saw drastic changes in her behavioral, processing speed and abilities, and overall self-confidence. When we did her evaluation and they were explaining the results, so much made sense. She was already very smart but was lacking in her ability to receive information. Once we started LearningRx all of that changed and the results showed both academically and socially.

Alexa (San Antonio NE, TX)

We had a great experience with LearningRx and have had a lot of growth academically. The staff is wonderful, and we would do it all over again.

Lindsey (Shreveport, LA)

We have seen many improvements within Mackenzie in all categories. Not only has it helped her grades and academically but in everyday life. She is much more confident in herself, and this program has helped grow her brain, but she has also grown as a person.

Jamie & Kevin (Indianapolis NE, IN)

The positive changes we have seen in our daughter showed us how valuable and effective the program is! Our daughter has improved in memory and working speed, and her reading skills have improved to a level that her teachers are bringing it up to us. Her self-confidence is willingness to learn new tasks has also improved greatly.

Brittany (River Valley, AR)

LearningRx was recommended to my family by a teacher that took the time to see the potential that my child had. LearningRx was able to assist my child into becoming a more confident and happier student. This brain training was the best decision our family has made.

Tiffany (Colorado Springs, CO)

LearningRx was instrumental in helping my son build skills to cope with ADHD. The trainer and the staff care about the child and that is extremely important for the success of any training program. LearningRx is truly a milestone in my son’s life, and we will come back for the coaching and mentoring programs as he progresses in his academic life.

Joel (Charlottesville, VA)

Improved attention and independence.

Tasha (Glendale, AZ)

We enrolled in LearningRx because we wanted him to have all the tools to be successful in life. We noticed differences and results in many ways throughout the program. His PSAT score jumped 100 points with 90 of the points being in the reading/comprehension section and he achieved Academic Dean’s List. More importantly, he noticed the difference. School became easier, he elaborates more whereas before answers to questions were brief, he is more confident, and as added bonus, it has helped him in basketball and baseball.

Jessica (Franklin, TN)

Amazing! The people here actually care, are extremely knowledgeable and have helped my daughter gain the confidence and tools she needs to soar!

Ross (Woodbury, MN)

I can’t put into words how absolutely grateful I am for Kathi and Doug sincerely. I sustained several injuries including a closed-head injury when a nail gun fell off of a roof and hit me directly on the head…I started with an initial 18-week program and could see the impact. So much so I extended the contract – I am currently over a year now as a client and I couldn’t have asked for a better brain trainer. I highly recommend for anyone recovering from injuries similar to mine.

Bree (Highlands Ranch, CO)

The vast improvements we saw in our student showed the effectiveness of the training with LearningRx. Jared’s time management, confidence, and how he prioritizes responsibilities are like night and day. His family, his teachers and he himself feel he made huge strides and showed great improvements.

Heather (Fort Collins, CO)

My daughter’s confidence level in math skills and reading has increased since training at Learning Rx and has in turn boosted her self-esteem significantly as well. The entire Learning Rx team is friendly, supportive, and equipped with the skills training to help realize significant improvements for you and your family too.

Katherine (Reston, VA)

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)

When [my daughter] started the program, she presented with low self-esteem, anxiety, difficulty in maintaining focus and an aversion towards reading. I am happy to report that in 7 short months, [she] has turned all of this around. She is beaming with confidence…She is showing great strides in responsibilities not only in school work, but at home as well. Reading…. NO PROBLEM…They were able to target underlying cognitive skills and significantly improve them by focusing on her specific needs.

Courtney (Chattanooga, TN)

LearningRx took my child’s needs seriously. They listened to what our concerns were, helped figure out a plan, and checked in throughout the process to make sure everything was in check. My child is even more confident. He has become much more expedient and efficient in his work. I have seen a huge improvement in his willingness to try and his ability to remember information is amazing!

Kallie (Woodbury, MN)

When Katrina first came to LearningRx, we had a frustrated, almost angry daughter who was having a difficult time at school and receiving poor grades. To our delight, Katrina has made a transformation back into her true self in many ways. She’s happy again, speaking positively about her work, her performance, school, and herself in general. For the first time she wants to share what happened at school. She has shown such an attitude switch in many areas, we are thrilled.

Jane (Shreveport, LA)

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)

Irene’s support and leadership has been crucial in the progress and success of clients. She has been very responsive of and receptive to parents’ feedback and suggestions and strives to include them in the planning of goals and objectives for purpose of trainings!

Hibroly (Reston, VA)

As a result of the LearningRx training, my daughter is now in a much better place. She approaches her schoolwork with ease and enthusiasm, no longer feeling overwhelmed or anxious. She has developed patience with herself and her school tasks within the school environment. She’s no longer so hard on herself when she faces challenges.

Lisa (Raleigh, NC)

The improvements with our 14-year-old have been amazing. I believe every person will benefit from this program. It’s top notch.

Paula (Colorado Springs, CO)

LearningRx has been amazing for my 1st Grader! I have watched him gain confidence in learning subjects that were challenging to him and have also seen an increase in his academic test scores since his training began in Chattanooga. Everyone has been amazing to work with, and so welcoming and kind. Excited to see my son’s future progress. Thank you LearningRx – Chattanooga!

Cate (Chattanooga, TN)

His growth has extended beyond academics. His youth director even commented on his improved focus and ability to take detailed notes during lessons. He now contributes thoughtfully in group discussions and isn’t afraid to raise his hand and share insights.

Jessica (Charlottesville, VA)

When you see the changes in your child from the beginning to the end, it is very rewarding. Our son was very reluctant at the beginning of training but started to show joy in sharing the activities he was working on. We have seen our son be able to sit for longer periods of time when completing tasks. His attention span has lengthened which has improved his work at school.

Matt (Reston, VA)

LearningRx has been so beneficial to our 7-yr old who was struggling with reading. Seeing his progress over the months and through the pre- and post-program assessments has been incredible. Maureen and her team are so kind and supportive and figure out what each kid needs individually to grow their confidence and brain skills! Thank you, LearningRx!

Amy (Tysons, VA)

The confidence he has gained, even during the difficult parts. Everybody is always so positive and uplifting. He is better at sticking to the difficult parts and can himself see his own improvements. Logan has improved almost 2 full grade levels in reading. He has more stamina for reading. He is retaining math information better, and knows he is now ‘really good’ at math.

Jessica (Pensacola, FL)

My family and I are so pleased with the amazing training they have provided for our child. His reading skills have improved in speed and fluency. This training has enriched the life our son in all areas. He has a wonderful teacher, and looks forward to his training with her!

Robert (Chattanooga East, TN)

We really appreciate the tools and techniques LearningRx provided for Montel to continue to identify, analyze, process information presented before him. The hesitation and unsureness are replaced with confidence and self-assurance in his abilities working a problem.

Glen (San Antonio, NE, TX)

She had taken and excelled in college-level science and math courses in 8th grade, but struggled to remember and apply a lot of the basic math she had learned. Despite our initial skepticism about whether LearningRx could make a big difference for such a good student, after just a few months at LearningRx, her ability to retain and use mathematical knowledge really took off. Her focus, clarity, speed, precision of understanding, and ability to solve problems quickly and accurately absolutely rocketed.

Dr. Tony & Christine Cox (Shreveport, LA)

I see positive changes in my child’s personally and school wise. My child’s spelling has improved as well as verbal communication.

Sarah (Fairfax, VA)

All of my children have completed programs with LearningRx and have done well. Victoria has worked on increasing her memory and speed when taking tests. She is successful in school.

Maria (The Woodlands, TX)

For two or three years I knew something wasn’t right. The school kept telling me that he was at grade level and that it was okay. But it wasn’t okay, because he would avoid reading. We came [to LearningRx] in September and thy confirmed he had an auditory processing problem. It feels like the pressure is off my shoulders.

L. Jakeman (Shreveport, LA)

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)

We are so happy to see the increased focus and confidence in our son.

Heather (Irvine, CA)

This program has changed the course of the way this child will learn for a lifetime. This is not a band aid program. It doesn’t just cover underlying problems with your learning capabilities. This is a lifelong tool to success. My daughter (8 yo) has ADHD and auditory processing working against her, and we saw the impact that it was having on her ability to focus, memorize, read and spell. Fast forward in time, 100 hours of LearningRx completed, (signing on for 40 more because we can’t get enough) and my child is reading at her grade level, she is excited about school, she is passing tests, her focus is better, her memory is better! I will always consider this the best gift I could give my daughter.

Emily (Franklin, TN)

The results with my son have exceeded all expectations!!! Kevin and Jill are the most dedicated, caring and encouraging team my son has ever worked with. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

Holly (Milwaukee-Brookfield, WI)

Working in Education for 18 years, I knew my 9 year old daughter needed something more than a reading tutor. Learning Rx provided an opportunity for her to retrain her brain versus getting academic support. This intensive cognitive reset is worth every minute and is simply invaluable. Her confidence and self esteem in the classroom has improved significantly and her focus and attention while reading is dramatic. The team in Woodbury was responsive, effective, and ensured that my daughter felt loved, inspired, and successful.

Megan (Woodbury, MN)

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