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.”

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

Schools do not provide supports like these to help kids who struggle with conventional learning. Always trying to find ways to make things possible and the excellent communication.

Scott & Heidi (Indianapolis NE, IN)

This has been a great experience. I’ve seen improvements within 2-3 weeks in starting and has excelled. I’m glad there’s a center like this to take the time to teach at such a level that kids need!

Mike (Chandler, AZ)

I went through the program as an adult looking to improve my reading and cognitive skills, and the test results proved that it worked. The out-of-pocket cost can be a bit daunting, but if it’s feasible, it provides many hours of one-on-one training to enhance your brain skills.

Cole (Minneapolis, MN)

My daughter trains there and we have seen the amount of time it takes her to do schoolwork lessen significantly. She also has a better time understanding math concepts.

Keri (Colorado Springs, CO)

Our son just completed the program and we are very pleased with our experience overall. We see a notable difference in several areas. We truly appreciated the support his trainer has given him and his ability to meet my son where he was, making each training session engaging.

Elif (Eagan, MN)

It was amazing how this brain training positively affected every aspect of my 8-year old’s life, from comprehending what he read to learning and speaking to building confidence in himself and working through the meltdowns rather than shutting down. Homework time, discipline time, and times of losing are also a lot easier with new understanding. All of which will make his life lessons, now and in the future, easier to adapt to and learn from!

Brendan (Colorado Springs, CO)

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)

So many positive improvements with my daughter through this program. She has improved with her self-confidence and belief in her own abilities. As a parent, her ability to attack hard things head-on without much frustration is an amazing accomplishment and makes me so proud.

Nick (Fort Collins, CO)

My son is doing so much better in school, he can focus on what needs to be done. Homework and projects would take HOURS for him to finish. Not anymore. He’s able to use time at school more effectively, which helps reduce the amount of homework he has. His focus, verbal comprehension, and auditory processing have improved so much and that was my main expectation of LearningRx.

Heather (Appleton, WI)

I think learningRX is a great investment in yourself. I’m in my late 20’s and I want to be more confident in my reading and writing as I enter into a corporate career. My trainer was very encouraging and continued to work with me on my goals to improve everyday. The staff at this center is great and you will be well taken care of. Marlyn was great with all the scheduling of extra meetings or general questions I had whenever I called.

Zac (Chattanooga East, TN)

My son used to need help to do homework and anything for school, now he sits and reads and does everything by himself, it is amazing how he is doing at school and little by little he is gaining confidence. I love everyone at LearningRx and highly recommend it to everybody.

Eyvis (Appleton, WI)

Our son has improved his reading, writing and math over the course of the last 6 months with brain training. Before we started working with LearningRx our son was very resistant to working on improving in these areas because he lacked the confidence in his skills. We now see him sharing his accomplishments with others, and more willing to work independently and receive help when needed. We could not be happier with the results of brain training.

Amanda (Pensacola, FL)

LearningRx has made such a difference in the lives of my children. My oldest daughter wanted to give high school a try (she is homeschooled). She was a bit nervous because she thought that she might not be able to keep pace with the other students due to her dyslexia. LearningRx gave her the confidence to try. Her first semester in high school she was on the honor roll. LearningRx, their tools and strategies WORK!

Carmel (Dublin, OH)

I only did an adult brain booster, and I was starting to see improvements in my memory and speed. I hope to do more hours in the future.

Regis (Alpharetta, GA)

I can think through multiple thoughts easier and make decisions quicker.

Samuel (Irvine, CA)

Our son’s trainer worked really hard to improve his reading and processing skills. Although his behavior was challenging at times, his trainer persevered. We are grateful for all of the one-on-one attention.

Alison (Atlanta-Buckhead, GA)

I cannot express how impressed I am with their service. My son has tested out of his grade for reading and math when before he was struggling with both.

CW (Appleton, WI)

My child went from being nonverbal to being a little girl who is communicating AND reading! Naomi was a little girl who would cry instead of telling me what was wrong. She had been learning her alphabet but could not recognize a single letter in the alphabet. After training, Naomi now has conversations with others, and she is excelling in school. We love LearningRx!

Mandy (Huntsville, TX)

Individual attention, specific concepts discussed and addressed, identifiable progress. Willingness to take time to do hard tasks that don’t come easy, increased confidence in reading and writing.

Mark (Staunton-Harrisonburg, VA)

The Learning RX model and coaches have proved to be the missing link we have been hoping for to help close the gaps in our son’s cognitive performance. Not only is he making huge strides as a student after a few months of training, but his overall confidence has grown significantly. He recognizes the benefits of his hard work because he’s experienced how brain training is enhancing all aspects of his life. We are thrilled with his progress and so thankful we found this life changing opportunity for our son.

Brian & Bonnie (Franklin, TN)

Skylar shows more confidence in her reading skills. Her results show drastic increases in most all areas she was retested in. She definitely would not have made these improvements without the fantastic staff at LearningRx.

Christina (Louisville-Springhurst, KY)

He has struggled with reading and writing since preschool and only continued to fall further behind even with an IEP/school support plan. Coming to LearningRx has been the best decision we have ever made for our son. He absolutely loves coming, the staff is extremely friendly and, also encouraging. We’ve seen tremendous growth in his reading skills and working memory.

Susan (Shoreview, MN)

I recommend this program for parents who has a child with ADHD. This program helped my daughter to block out distractions, to really use her brain of figuring things out, and she completes her homework faster without being reminded to do her homework. The program is also great for adults.

On Yong (San Antonio NE, TX)

Gabrielle has shown consistent improvements in her schoolwork scores. She has told us that school seems easier. Above all, Gabby has learned skills that will help her be successful in whatever she chooses to do. She has learned how to focus more intentionally, listen more actively, plan in advance, priorities her tasks.

Amy (Chandler, AZ)

It felt like everyone working there really cared and wanted to see me grow!

Noah (Savage, MN)

The director and staff of trainers are awesome. They demonstrated their care and concern for my successful completion of the program each time I had class. I have spoken highly of them to others and recommended them to several people that I felt could benefit from the program.

Pamela (Charlottesville, VA)

Wilson’s life has changed because of LearningRx. She is reading and has become quite independent and a self-starter. We are very impressed by her results! Very easy to work with and strong communication. An all-around wonderful experience!

Jamie (NWA South, AR)

He is reading chapter books and is testing in 80th percentile for math and reading. He is no longer in any interventions support in school. He is now so confident in all areas and I know there is no way we as parents could have gotten him here alone. I would recommend any parent to embrace this program and allow it to help support your child!

DH (Franklin, TN)

After I attended LearningRx my work started taking me half the time! I would recommend LearningRx to anyone with a slow work pace… it’s fast and easy and really works!

Bryan (Shreveport, LA)

My child is happy to sit and read a book and can work through the words much more fluently than he did before LearningRx. He is finally at or a little above grade level. He is willing to try new things and tends to be less frustrated when he gets stuck (improved resiliency) and is willing to work it out to solve the problem.

Christie (Irvine, CA)

The service is amazing and she loved it here. She is now a more confident reader and loves to read and isn’t scared of the hard or challenging words.

Alli (Irvine, CA)

I loved this place because the people that teach it create a fun environment, the games that are incorporated are really fun to play while also learning a lot through them too!

Lukas (Woodbury, MN)

The profound growth we saw in our son. Listening abilities and ability to verbalize thoughts and feelings are now happening, whereas before LearningRx it was a tantrum. His self-esteem and confidence have drastically improved.

Sarah (NWA South, AR)

We have seen a huge improvement in reading fluency and memory. It has helped her with self-confidence. It has been a great experience.

S.N. (Fairfax, VA)

Ms. Loftus and her entire team were absolutely wonderful to work with! After training with them, my son is now thriving at school, able to focus better, and his confidence levels have skyrocketed!

May (Tysons, VA)

LearningRx helped me with my memory and I now have more opportunities at work.

Kyle (Milwaukee-Brookfield, WI)

I highly recommend LearningRx for their personalized and effective cognitive training, which significantly improved my son’s confidence and cognitive abilities.

Mariestella (Atlanta-Buckhead, GA)

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)

My daughter is still loving Learning Rx! We are seeing some great results! My daughter’s processing speed is increasing. She is developing better conversation skills. She is becoming more confident. This is totally worth money!

Heidi (Shoreview, MN)

My daughter’s experience with Learning Rx has been a journey in gaining confidence, focus, study and comprehension skills. The trainers she worked with were fantastic at keeping her engaged – it was such positive experience for her! She worked with Kyle over the summer and even though she was working hard, he made it fun and kept her happy to be spending some of her vacation developing long-lasting skills. Learning Rx has made such a difference in her self-esteem and school performance!

Christy (Cary, NC)

For us it’s not about improving his grade so much as his toolbox to be independent and in control of his studies and being inspired to do his best. Christen is such a wonderful guide for him – funny, motivating and kind. She has figured out his personality and designs the program to suit him. He willingly tears himself from his video games to come to class which is no small thing. We are really happy we found LearningRx and find it worth every penny.

Sarah (Tysons, VA)

LearningRx has been so helpful for my daughter in her reading journey! She has improved in her auditory processing, short term memory/working memory, and confidence; even her attitude toward reading has improved! We are so happy with the progress she has made with the guidance and expertise of the amazing team at LearningRx. My daughter loves her trainer, Amber! LearningRx has been such a positive experience all around.

Leah (San Antonio NE, TX)

This program has been incredible for both our daughters. Both have completed the program, and both have excelled in school and college entrance exams as a result of the efficacy of the program and the incredible skill of our trainer Tara as part of the program. As a Clinical Psychologist, I have seen many programs throughout the years to improve grades, learning methods, etc. I have never seen a program that generates such clear and demonstrated results as in this program. Thank you for creating such a fantastic program for our children and all children who take this course of study!

C.F. (Alpharetta, GA)

Micah’s ability to learn without ‘freezing’ is the biggest improvement. Micah’s abilities to spell, write, read, follow instruction have all drastically improved. Micah’s confidence has improved. His excitement of learning has skyrocketed.

Marilyn (Chandler, AZ)

My daughter was diagnosed with ADD…Fortunately, I did not wait too long after this diagnosis to bring her to Rx. Her struggles consisted of: difficulty reading, spelling, processing information as well as the inability to retain it (short term and long term memory.) What used to be 20 min. Intervals of school work at a time has become day-long endurance…Not only is her reading off the charts, but her comprehension was a benefit that I didn’t expect. Thank you, Dargan, Michelle and the whole team – we are forever grateful!

Kimberly (Charlottesville, VA)

My daughter has shown continued improvement in willingness to try and is no longer resistant to trying new or hard things – both academic and non. I do not believe we would continue to see such tremendous and continuous progress without this program.

Katie (Milwaukee-Brookfield, WI)

My daughter is a senior in high school and has struggled in school all her life. She has had tutors on and off for over 10 years. Her biggest struggles were with her processing both visual and auditory, memorizing math facts and problem solving to name a few. They were very understanding and flexible with her training sessions because she is a very busy student. They met three days a week online for about six months and now after those six months, she has improved in every area and is doing better in school and has much more confidence in herself. She now has a good foundation to be successful in life.

Sara (Woodbury, MN)

My trainer, Telisa, was exceptional, and I am incredibly grateful to have had such a motivating yet challenging individual to coach me through this extremely difficult program. I wish my friends, and family could experience this type of training, which I believe improves nearly every aspect of your life regarding decision-making, behavior, and overall self-confidence.

Katerina (Charlottesville, VA)

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)

As Jack’s mom, (and an educator) I’ve seen significant growth since he began LearningRx. While he’s always been highly intelligent, he had ongoing struggles with auditory processing, reading fluency, spelling, and speech clarity. After completing the program, Jack’s gains have been remarkable—his enunciation has improved, his confidence in reading out loud has grown, and his spelling, though still a challenge, has noticeably improved even in casual settings like writing on a whiteboard.

Winona (Milwaukee-Brookfield, WI)

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