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!

The improvement that was shown from the start has been absolutely unbelievable! His confidence and fluency in reading that he has shown since the beginning has been outstanding and we are so impressed with everything!

Lauren (Pensacola, FL)

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)

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)

Bonnie literally went from barely reading, total meltdown when she was asked to read to now reading above grade level and picking up books for fun even. Training has also improved her attention and focus more than we thought possible. We have even been able to taper off her ADHD meds. Total transformation!

Skip (Chattanooga, TN)

The staff are incredible. Didi has improved in her basic reading and problem-solving skills as well as her ability to focus. We appreciate all the center has done to help our girl succeed.

Jamie (Franklin, TN)

Our daughter saw improvements in her reading skills and grew in her confidence of being a reader. She seems to enjoy reading more and asks to read extra pages when it’s time to turn off the lights at bedtime. Her memory skills were strengthened, too.

Carlie (Eden Prairie, MN)

Transformative experience at LearningRx! My son has shown remarkable success and vast improvement in all areas since starting his journey with their program. 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.

Flordeliza (Katy, TX)

Our daughter is much more confident in her reading and is willing to attack words. She genuinely enjoys reading now.

Deanna (Brooklyn Park, MN)

LearningRx has not only been a game changer in our daughters schoolwork and grades it has also helped her be self-confident. She does not procrastinate on her work and her grades have improved tremendously. She ended her last semester of school with a 3.9 GPA.

Sara (Milwaukee-Brookfield, WI)

From the moment I contacted Maureen to the last day, communication was clear, prompt, and professional. Our concerns about Omar were addressed, and a clear plan of action was given to us. A huge bonus was that Omar actually looked forward to going to see his teacher Tully and later Katie. On several occasions, I’ve heard Omar telling his friends how LearningRx is the best kind of tutoring he’s had because it’s “actually fun.”

Sarah (Tysons, 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)

My child was struggling so much with reading in school and at home. She had one-on-one help through the school for a full school year but was still significantly below grade level. Her frustration began to build with tests taking almost 3x longer for her to complete when compared to her peers. She started to dislike going to school because it was too difficult. She has grown tremendously with LearningRx. She is volunteering to read at school and has improved in her skills in many ways.

Jolene (Eagan, MN)

Great improvement in reading skills, friendly staff. Isla’s reading skills improved drastically because of the LearningRx program. She is more confident, doing better in school and enjoys reading more now. We have already recommended the program to friends.

Jordan (Reston, VA)

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)

We signed our daughter up for sessions at LearningRx while she was struggling with 7th grade Civics. The trainers were great, forming personal connections with her, which helped her be more open to the curriculum and sessions. LearningRx gave us regular progress updates, and they were very encouraging of her progress.

Megan (Charlottesville, VA)

My daughter completed the program and had a significant improvement and her confidence when through the roof.

Minneh (Reston, VA)

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)

Mike was very engaging and knowledgeable and has an amazing background that fits perfectly with this work. He is also very passionate and truly cares about helping the people that come in. It is apparent that he is in this to change lives and that’s refreshing to find.

Alli (Fort Collins, CO)

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)

The staff and trainers are friendly and professional, showing genuine care for each child’s growth and development.

Denice (Savage, MN)

At home he is now willing to do his homework, where before he would have a tantrum every time. His school grades have made a noticeable improvement. At school his teacher has also noticed large improvements in his classroom behavior. His reading and spelling grades have improved.

Paul (Chandler, AZ)

I just wanted to say how thankful that I am to have been recommended LearningRx. Through their expertise, my attention to detail, processing speed, and overall academic confidence have all improved considerably. I recommend these services to both children and adults.

Jacolby McCray (Atlanta-Buckhead, GA)

Because it’s a wonderful place to learn with the friendly staff. I was the oldest in the class at a fine age of 66! Your brain is so amazing, and it needs to be exercised and strengthened. I would recommend the LearningRx center.

Patricia (Woodbury, MN)

I saw a tremendous increase in my daughter’s confidence! She was always there to help, offer additional resources and even do some trainings. She was a huge advocate for my daughter!

Courtney (Highlands Ranch, CO)

Ana (Charlottesville, VA)

My son went into the program with poor study habits, limited memory recall, and zero confidence. During, and at the end, of the program his study skills, confidence, and grades have dramatically improved. I highly recommend the program!

Sam M. (Chandler, AZ)

My daughter and son in-law needed to find a way to get their daughter some help with reading. They spoke with a few friends that had children that attended LearningRx with great success. After the evaluation she started and immediately embraced the learning process. I feel very fortunate to be able to bring her to the classes when I can. I am very impressed with her progress in such a short time. Her goal is to be able to read a chapter book like her siblings mine is just to see her read without out her being embarrassed.

Corky (Shoreview, MN)

I had a consultation with LearningRX to assess my memory and logical thinking. The system that LearningRX uses to assess and strengthen your weaknesses is very innovative and I felt like it gave me great insights on how I can improve.

Sam (Houston, TX)

Our experience with Learning Rx was very valuable. Gabriella helped my child so much during their time together. She worked really hard to make our goals happen. So many great strides were made in the areas of struggle.

Charity Cleary (Cary, NC)

My son has dyslexia and was really struggling to read. He not only reads now but reads well and is devouring books! My son also struggles with memory issues among other things, and it’s been so fun to see his memory strengthened and his ability to tell us more things and share more details and even do more things on his own. His confidence absolutely soared after this experience!

Kellee (Woodbury, MN)

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)

My daughter had a very positive experience at LearningRx. She loved working one on one with her trainers and enjoyed each session. She has made great strides in reading, math, writing and in her overall confidence as a student.

Gail (Eagan, MN)

Tatum is so much more willing to try hard things, his reading has improved tremendously. We recently had a parent/teacher conference, and his teacher had such great things to say about him. He is being a leader in his classroom (which is new for him), he is working hard, and his math and reading skills are right where they should be.

Sara (Appleton, WI)

LearningRx has been a great experience for my daughters and an outstanding way to “turn their brains back on” during this time of virtual learning. They have gained so much confidence and skill building from their trainers Zoe and Chel and we look forward to seeing how they continue to grow with the program.

Anne (Atlanta-Buckhead, GA)

Homework was a nightly battle—three hours of stress, tears, and very little progress. Then we found LearningRx. We went in for the evaluation, and for the first time, we saw a new approach—one that focused on how the brain learns, not just what to learn. That summer, Rosa started the program. At first, it wasn’t easy getting her there, but the team made it fun and engaging. Pretty soon, she was the one reminding me it was time to go. She finished the program, got her picture on the wall, and something just clicked.

Brian (Eagan, MN)

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

Fatima (Short Hills, NJ)

LearningRx was a huge help for my daughter. She’s much more confident in math and less likely to give up when facing challenging problems. Her working memory has improved as a whole and she’s more motivated to finish her schoolwork. She really enjoyed working with Lara and I’m grateful for the positive experience overall! I would definitely recommend Learning Rx.

Sonia (Glendale, AZ)

LearningRx is truly a life-changing program. The trainers are supportive, encouraging, and genuinely invested in your success, making every session both productive and enjoyable. The brain training exercises are challenging in the best way—they strengthen skills like memory, focus, and processing speed that impact everyday life. Because of LearningRx, I feel more confident, capable, and prepared for school, work, and beyond.

Brooklin (Irvine, CA)

Gaining confidence and seeing the possibilities and benefits of learning even if you struggle.

Gina & Jeff (Fairfax, VA)

We are very happy with the progress our daughter has achieved while at Learning RX and we were very impressed by the quality of our teachers!

Christy (Raleigh, NC)

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)

At LearningRx, the true difference was made by the teachers. Their dedication, patience, and skill in navigating exactly what [my daughter] needed created a learning environment where she could truly thrive. They didn’t just follow a program—they adapted, encouraged, and met her where she was, guiding her through challenges with understanding and consistency. Their ability to personalize her learning journey not only built her skills but also gave her confidence and resilience.

Mar (Franklin, TN)

My great grandson was having so much difficulty in school with his reading and they had helped him so much before with all his skills, I knew this would be the way to go.

Ms Whitmer (Texarkana, TX)

We have been very pleased with Kaelyn’s second round of training. The staff understood what she specifically needed and helped her to build more confidence and better math and comprehension skills. We have seen so many improvements.

Elena (Reston, VA)

I was very pleased with the service I received from LearningRX. My child was substantially delayed when we entered the program. After 150+ lessons my daughter was able to correct her deficiencies and more importantly the skills she learned will help her in the future. In addition, I must mention professionalism of the entire team through frequent check-in meetings/follow-ups about the progress child is making as well as inquiring about anything additional they can do.

Drazenka K. (Charlottesville, VA)

Reading level has gone up. I have also noticed a huge improvement in Holden’s vocabulary. He still takes a while to process things but his ability to process thoughts has significantly improved.

Ms Walker (Texarkana, TX)

Very thankful for LearningRx and the help it has provided our child. Seeing her gain confidence and ability is priceless. Michelle, Jennifer, Jordan, and the rest of the team are the best of the best. Your kindness and professionalism are simply the cherry on top

Kellen (Chattanooga, TN)

It has changed the way we interact with our children. From homeschooling, to discipline, it’s made a difference in how we work together as a family. I highly recommend! Each one of our kids have grown in effective communication and discipline.

Amanda (Pensacola, FL)

Our child was recently able to join a normal level class for reading and writing. His reading, writing, and comprehension grew exponentially during his time in the program.

Leah (Appleton, WI)

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)

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