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

Our son can focus more, and his writing in school has greatly improved from when he started. Now he writes stories with complex ideas, and it blows me away.

Kimberley (Irvine, CA)

LearningRX has been a life altering / trajectory changing life decision for our son!!! The freedom he now has with his brain and processing skills is awesome! The drastic improvements he has had within school work and homework have been phenomenal. Robyn, Mrs T and the whole team have so much passion and so much wisdom to pour into these students.

David K. (Chandler, AZ)

I am so pleased by my younger daughter’s results. She has definitely improved her reading skills and attention span. MIss Ashley is a fantastic trainer and my daughter has loved working with her. My older daughter has completed her training program and we have noticed improvements in her reading, spelling, and math. Her memory and attentions span have also improved. I have noticed significant improvements in her reading abilities, attention span, and memory. Thank you Learning Rx!

Jovan H. (Charlottesville, VA)

I continually recommend the program to friends and other homeschool families. The changes in my daughter were incredible across so many skills. My daughter can do math so much easier than she could before. She is also reading easier and faster. Most importantly, her confidence has increased.

Michelle (Tysons, VA)

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)

We saw so many little changes throughout the journey towards his growth that we couldn’t have done it without this program.

Ram (Indianapolis NE, IN)

On the recommendation of a friend, we turned to LearningRx Richmond Hill. Khai and Jeri conducted a thorough assessment and designed a personalized training plan tailored to my daughter’s needs. A special thanks to trainer Prudence, whose expertise and enthusiasm made learning an enjoyable experience for her. The one-on-one training was highly targeted, and we saw noticeable improvements in a short period of time. After more than a year of training, she has now caught up with her peers—exceeding our expectations!

Jasmine (Richmond Hill, ON)

My son has made tremendous progress in multiple areas! He’s more confident and was even mentioning today, weeks after LearningRx ended, that he wants to go back and say hi to everyone since he loved his trainers! Highly recommend this program.

Sapana (Sugar Land, TX)

The significant improvement that we saw in our daughter learning wise during that time. Not forgetting as much as she used to with simple directions. Completing tasks and schoolwork. Participation in class due to the confidence that she knows the material.

Rachael (Raleigh, NC)

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)

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)

Michelle and staff have taken a great interest in both of our children. They worked with our hectic schedules to get our son through the program and are now beginning the process all over again with our youngest. We are excited to be working with them again!!!

Holt Family (Chattanooga East, TN)

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)

I saw so much growth in confidence and her dedication and interest in learning. We are so proud of her hard work, and don’t think we could have picked a better program! Maison was matched with the trainer, she was comfortable which helped with her success within the program.

Danielle (Irvine, CA)

LearningRx truly understands many of the nuanced aspects of helping a child grow their brain to facilitate better learning in school.

Mellissa (Maple Grove, MN)

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)

Dargan and his colleagues, Ashley and Gray, are AMAZING brain trainers. They are so patient, kind and caring and those are the necessary ingredients to challenge an older brain like mine (55 years) to grow and improve. If you or your children are looking for a solid scientific approach to dial in your brain function, you have found the right place!

Brian (Charlottesville, VA)

Definitely would recommend. My son was having a hard time focusing and would daydream a lot. His attitude and confidence started to tank after his grades weren’t matching his siblings. Not too long after we started LearningRx, his attitude started to improve, and he is happier than ever. He is confident and is doing so much better in his schoolwork. He started soccer again and this season he is participating, engaged in the game and scored his first goal this weekend.

Kristen (Glendale, AZ)

Our daughter has ADHD and on meds that were helpful but she kept running into the same roadblocks academically: poor organization, not completing tasks, avoiding work…So I searched for help and found Learning RX. The training was slow going but improved steadily and I was noticing an improvement in her grades and her confidence. One year later she only made 1 C and is setting goals for her grades. She has far surpassed our expectations with training and we feel it is directly due to the training at Learning RX.

Issabel (Chattanooga East, TN)

Last year, Kayla had a tough time concentrating, being organized, and completing tasks set for her. She was struggling in school and had low self-esteem. We knew she needed more help than we could give her. We received the flyer for LearningRx in the mail, attended the seminar, and have never looked back. LearningRx addressed all of Kayla’s needs and after the program was over we have our smart and self-confident daughter back again!

Brett (Shreveport, LA)

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)

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)

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)

Baird and the LearningRx team have been very personable, knowledgeable, and professional as we learned more about their program. We are a homeschool family and hope the training here can strengthen our upper elementary child’s cognitive skills. Our first step was vision therapy … and now hope LearningRx will provide more additional support and believe through hard work our child will improve. Thus far, we are very satisfied with everything LearningRx has done!

Tim (Bloomington, MN)

We saw significant improvement in our daughter’s reading ability and fluency and know that it was from the work she did during her sessions at LearningRx. Our daughter started LearningRx being unable to read. She could sound out CVC words but was unable to blend the sounds together to say the word. She is now able to sound out many words, blend them together, and even read words without having to sound them out. She is able to read short stories. She used to dislike going to school as she would get frustrated with being unable to do the work. She now enjoys school and has a great attitude about going.

Heather (Princeton, MN)

I have seen my daughter grow in her ability to learn and her confidence bloom. This program is worth every penny and time spent. I would recommend this program to any parent that has a child. LOVE THIS PLACE!

Sherri (Pensacola, FL)

Learning RX has made a big difference in my child’s confidence and ability to persevere when attempting hard tasks and difficult school assignments. They did not just help with her reading abilities but also her attention span, focus, and processing speed. The staff truly care about each of their students and families.

Dana (Charlottesville, VA)

Learning Rx has provided tangible solutions for our child, support for us as parents, and boosted not only her academic ability but her confidence. We are grateful for our journey and for the amazing staff at Learning Rx.

Maranda & Sas (Shreveport, LA)

We are so pleased with the results of our experience with LearningRx! Our student has increased in his attention and processing, as well as his ability to persevere through difficult or non-preferred tasks. We are very impressed with his improvement and happy we chose LearningRx!

Devon (Staunton-Harrisonburg, VA)

Our 10-year-old son’s life is on a GREAT trajectory thanks to his brain being “re-wired” by the LearningRx program! I am a family nurse practitioner, and I can say their system is unlike any other. In the past, my son would be crying nearly every day after school due to the frustration of being behind and overwhelmed. Now, a year later, he’s a confident young man who enjoys school, loves to learn— and even enjoys taking tests!

Ellie (Colorado Springs, CO)

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)

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)

Our daughter got the attention and skills she needed to become successful in school. Our daughter is doing better in school and all her teachers noticed how the difference in her academic performance after attending LearningRx. She’s very young and we are glad we got the training she needed at an early age.

Adriana (Reston, VA)

What a difference 7 months makes. Thank you Khai, Jeri, and Jermy. Special thanks to Emily and Darian for their dedication and support. You both have made a positive and valuable improvement on my son. I am truly grateful and appreciative for your outstanding help. Thanks to Ada for filing in a couple of times.

Keisha & Nathan (Richmond Hill, ON)

We have seen big changes in our daughter this school year. She is getting her work done more independently, her grades are excellent, and she is more confident. Your program helps build stronger skills and we like that your approach is different and better than traditional tutoring.

Sergio (Reston, VA)

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

Julia (Staunton-Harrisonburg, 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)

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)

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)

We’ve been going to Learning RX for a few months now. My son loves it and look forward to going everywhere. Its worth it!

Caravaggio (Eagan, MN)

Kayson is more confident with his schoolwork and baseball. He is become a better communicator. And his scores on homework has consistently become better. Grateful for what LearningRx training has done for both of our children.

Eros (Tysons, 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)

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

Ms Rudd (Texarkana, TX)

Extremely great program! I would definitely recommend. I had two of my sons go through it and they improved academically and socially.

Jenny-Rae (Brookfield, WI)

My daughter has a new found confidence after completing the Learning RX program! We as a family loved how the skills can be adaptable to the child’s specific needs.

Mindy (Appleton, WI)

Ava has improved so much of her memory and processing skills thanks to LearningRx! She is thrilled with how much faster she is able to complete her homework and understand her lessons and literature. Her confidence in both school and social situations have grown tremendously!

Brandi & Nicholas (Indianapolis NE, IN)

Our son struggled in school and started to disconnect because it became frustrating. After working with LearningRx everything changed, he talked about school in a positive way, grades came around. Now since 9th grade he has been on the honor roll every semester and is better organized. It’s all about understanding how your child learns and fixing the problems so they can reach their full potential.

Rudy (Colorado Springs, CO)

Dylan is more independent, confident, and resilient. He is capable of completing tasks now without our intervention or support.

Bryce (Irvine, CA)

The biggest change we saw in him was his ability to listen, focus and pay attention. He is now able to keep himself on task and focused on what he is doing while also listening to those around him. He has been able to listen and not need for it to be repeated, while also retaining what he heard to apply or question it later.

Ms Capps (Texarkana, TX)

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)
