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!

Hear from our Students and Families

Wow, everyone who works here appears to love what they do, and the kids sense it! We have just begun our journey here, but I am thrilled to have learned the areas of potential growth for my children and to have been provided with the tools proven to help them reach their goals

Jennifer (Eden Prairie, MN)

My child is more confident in his ability to succeed. He is more willing to try new things. He has a better sense of self control, and he has made significant improvements on every report card. He has learned that working hard is more important than perfection!

Durelle (Chattanooga, TN)

Our daughter’s confidence has grown through the roof! The entire staff was genuine and dedicated to helping achieve our goals. The results were amazing. Our trainer was dedicated and connected very well with our daughter. He was a fantastic motivator.

Kendra (Raleigh, NC)

Wyatt has gained confidence in both his reading and math skills!

Emily (Rogers, MN)

Our son has made many academic gains over the year and a half attending LearningRx. Our son has gained confidence and has a better outlook on school. His grades have improved and his teacher has seen growth in all academic areas.

Shelly (Milwaukee-Brookfield, WI)

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)

Greater ability to pay attention, work through hard things, speed in processing thoughts.

Mary (Eden Prairie, MN)

Charlie has improved more than we ever thought he could. Jessa was an amazing trainer with Charlie. She was great with communicating, helping Charlie and overall improvement

Bethany (Indianapolis NE, IN)

My son has been going to LearningRx since about August. He is now in Junior Honor Society for his school. This is brand new for him. I highly recommend this place. It is really an investment in your child’s future and well worth the cost!

Julie (Shreveport, LA)

Noticeable improvement in study habit. She’s become a more diligent worker. She can focus for a longer period of time when doing schoolwork. She understands math more than she used to.

Sonia (Chandler, AZ)

Confidence. Focus. Memory. Test scores. Organization! All improved!

Tracey & Josh (Indianapolis NE, IN)

Our son had struggled with ADHD and OCD for many years through school. School continually struggled to meet his needs and adapt to someone that thinks differently. LearningRx has been absolutely life changing in the success of our son. His score improvements was a testament to that. The larger changes we saw were in day to day thinking, problem solving, attention to details, staying on track with a schedule and overall increased confidence was clear. The only thing is I wished we had found LearningRx earlier in his school career.

Adam (Savage, MN)

I feel his reading comprehension has improved a lot and that was a big struggle coming into the program.

Cari (Savage, MN)

The staff, program, and results that we have seen throughout the whole process for Jacquelyn has been a great experience! We are already seeing her confidence being boosted after a few weeks. Not only has the confidence changed in her, but the ability to do her own work independently and require less assistance. The results from the beginning to now are incredible and we as parents feel better about her future.

Jenny (River Valley, AR)

Improvements in ability and willingness to work by himself. More fluid reading. More confidence in schoolwork.

Melissa (Glendale, AZ)

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)

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)

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)

The big thing for us is responsiveness and taking the time to clearly respond. The director was always accessible, and as accommodating as needed. When we needed to make changes, she also took action. I think there were some unforeseen staffing challenges the director has to respond to, and I thought Vincent didn’t really lose too much of a connection when the changes were made.

Danielle (The Woodlands, TX)

We saw a huge improvement with Gracie Kay. Very good communication and really cared about her progress.

Kristie (Milwaukee-Brookfield, WI)

My daughter struggled with mathematics. The training and tutoring offered by LearningRx is a game changer.

Hugo (Shreveport, LA)

We are grateful for the hard work and patience of Isabella’s trainer, as well as for all the staff who helped Isabella succeed. She showed an amazing growth academically and personally and we couldn’t be more proud and happy for that!!

Blanca (Shreveport, LA)

I am so happy with my experience at LearningRx! My son is able to do work with more confidence. He improved at math and he is learning math faster which I am so happy about. Also he became more willing to learn at home.

Naeem (Sugar Land, TX)

You connected with Carsyn on different level, she learned so much with you and we will be recommending our friends to come here to you!

Clayton (Atlanta-Buckhead, GA)

They have been easy to work with and have been accommodating with schedule changes. The issues being addressed concerning our son are showing signs of improvement.

Greg (Houston Central, 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)

Life-Changing Experience at LearningRx Richmond Hill. The brain training exercises used at LearningRx are nothing like traditional tutoring — they are engaging, innovative, and truly transformative. Over time, we noticed that our child became more attentive in school, more willing to do his homework, and, most importantly, more confident in his abilities. His academic skills improved, yes, but the boost in confidence and motivation was what really stood out. The progress he made through this program has been life-changing for our entire family.

Jason (Richmond Hill, ON)

LearningRx Eden Prairie outperformed our expectations! I was honestly a bit skeptical about it at first but going in talking to Baird understanding how they approached things all made sense. Our teenage son completed the program and the transformation of his confidence, wittiness, memory, grades (when he applied himself) and overall ability to recognize situations was life changing.

Mike (Minneapolis, 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)

Everyone was wonderful! They ensured we understood the process and the results! We saw lots of improvement in our sons listening and ability to focus, as well as keep himself on task! Highly recommended!

Kelli (Texarkana, TX)

The entire LearningRx team and program made a tremendous impact on our daughter’s reading and processing speed. We loved working with all of the trainers and especially appreciated Ms. Gina’s dedication and care for our daughter’s growth and progress. The program is a significant commitment and investment, and it’s totally worth it. Thank you, LearningRx!!!

Nicole (Minnetonka, MN)

She’s not afraid of a challenge now, and is willing to focus and work through problems. She is excited about learning and reading now!

Daniella (Louisville-Springhurst, KY)

My daughter has been a part of this program for over 3 months, and we’ve seen tremendous growth and development since she started. As a result of her training so far, she asserts herself in class more; she accomplished all A’s her first semester; and she won a class award for being a “top thinker”. LearningRx has given her skills to last a lifetime, but more than that, it’s made her a more confident individual who’s eager to learn.

Mandy (Atlanta-Buckhead, GA)

Both children continued to make huge gains in working memory, retention, auditory and visual processing, and more! Aside from the program itself, Michelle and the staff at LearningRx Chattanooga are incredible to work with. My children felt loved and supported through the program and the staff were always available to answer questions or provide tailored advice for our family. I can’t recommend LearningRx Chattanooga enough!

Jordan (Chattanooga, TN)

Katie, Molly, & Matt helped Kennedy find a safe space to find confidence & growth not only academically but also in every way.

Allan (Louisville-Springhurst, KY)

We are new to LearningRx. But we love it. Staff are friendly, easy to talk to and helpful. My son likes his coach Gina. She always has smile on her face and great communicator.

Hani (St. Louis Park, MN)

My daughter shows a dramatic improvement in reading comprehension, memory, concentration, and confidence. She takes initiative to read for fun now. Her memory is also significantly improved. She’s more confident reading, writing, and crunching numbers. And she’s happier and more confident and I don’t know what better metric I personally need as a father.

Chris (Charlottesville, VA)

We have been LearningRx clients for over a year and I have been blown away at the progress our student has achieved in this short time! Donesa and her team are absolute academic angels!

Mario (Shreveport, LA)

We have been able to reduce his ADHD medication and have seen improved focus. His reading skills have improved as well.

Mrs Coston (Texarkana, TX)

Before we started the program, my son was struggling to read. I had run out of resources to help him and he was feeling so poorly about himself and doubted his ability. He not only reads fluently but understands his reading skills and his confidence has improved greatly!

Emily (Pensacola, FL)

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)

We have seen great improvement in our child with the methods used by LearningRx in not just academic but also everyday life skills and behavior. It is given us an insight into how her brain works. We are grateful.

Sarah (Plymouth, MN)

LearningRx has been the best decision I ever made for my son. The growth and transformation I’ve seen academically has been astronomical. The one-on-one brain training has given him the foundation and tools needed to excel in school. I am beyond grateful for LearningRx and Ms. Makenzie his trainer.

Ashley (San Antonio NE, TX)

We have seen how much Lexi has improved in her reading and overall interest in learning. It has given her confidence in school overall.

Kathy (Coon Rapids, MN)

I have seen my child grow not just academically, but also in believing in her own abilities to problem-solving. The team of professionals at this place truly understands the needs of each student and works tirelessly to help them excel in their cognitive skills. The positive impact LearningRx has had on my family is truly invaluable. Without a doubt LearningRx has my highest recommendation.

Sara (Colorado Springs, CO)

Her visual processing and auditory processing had improved beyond her years resulting in her working memory, visual memory, logic-reasoning, processing speed, and attentiveness improving; which allowed school to become enjoyable and no longer so challenging. Her organization skills have improved as well as her grades. If your child is struggling, please give it a try. It may be life-changing for your child and your family.

Renee (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)

Ethan could not read at the beginning of his training. He had no confidence on himself. And the school did not support us as a family. The difference in his attitude is what makes me so happy and proud. He is a different kid. He not only knows he can do hard things but that he will succeed. That alone is the best feeling as a parent. Thank you for your patience and support Ms. Sandra and Mr. Don.

Magy (Fairfax, VA)

Our daughter was really struggling and we were concerned that she may not move to the next grade in school. Not only has LearningRx given her the mental exercises to improve, but it has given her the tools that she can utilize in learning at home and at school that will allow her to be successful in her future. She has moved from a place of defeat and sometimes despair to one of being hopeful and having plans for her future. She has learned that she can do hard things.

Justin (Raleigh, NC)

LearningRx helped our daughter gain confidence and this propelled her to achieve so much more. The relationship she built with her trainer was an integral part of her progress. Our daughter was happy to come for training. Improvements in processing speed, memory, confidence, focus, persistence, and number skills. Darya has also shown improvements in her social skills.

Behnaz (Richmond Hill, ON)

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