The Difference: Training vs. Tutoring

The biggest difference? Tutoring focuses on delivering information to students, while brain training helps students build stronger learning skills. Instead of simply reteaching information from class, brain training helps students become more confident and more independent learners.

Most important of all, brain training can identify the root cause of learning struggles and help students overcome these difficulties.

Tutoring can be a good fit for students who:

Have missed classes due to illness
Have recently moved to a new school
Are learning from a substitute teacher
Benefit from reviewing class materials

LearningRx training is a great choice
for students who:

Need to work harder or longer on schoolwork than peers
Have trouble focusing on lessons and assignments
Are having difficulty with core skills, like reading or math
Have tried tutoring in the past but haven’t seen results

and that changes lives.

Cognitive Skills and Brain Training

Cognitive training, also known as brain training, is a method by which cognitive weaknesses can be strengthened. Brain training, when done one-on-one with a trainer, uses intense mental exercise to target and strengthen skills that aren’t performing as well as desired.

If you or someone you love is struggling with learning, reading, attention, or memory, you can at least find out why. The first step is to take a Cognitive Skills Assessment to identify weak cognitive skills. If weak cognitive skills are at the root of struggles with learning or life, brain training may offer the solution you’re looking for.

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)

We’ve had an incredible experience with LearningRx in Peoria! My nephew has made huge progress, and one of the most noticeable changes has been how much less time he now spends on homework. What used to take hours is now done in a fraction of the time—and with far less frustration. Lara was especially wonderful to work with—she made the whole process smooth and supportive from day one. We’re so grateful for the care and attention he received. Highly recommend!

Kimberly (Glendale, AZ)

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)

My daughter just recently finished the program at LearningRX with Courtney and it was well worth the investment. We had struggled for years with what to do as our daughter had challenges with reading and overall confidence in the classroom. Very quickly after starting the program, we noticed an increase in her confidence and then by the end of the 6 months we had seen not only improvement in her confidence, but she was reading more fluently and comprehending what she was reading.

Jaye H. (Cedar Rapids North, IA)

LearningRx provided the missing link we would not have been able to get anywhere else, at least to my knowledge. I was a high school English teacher for 13 years, and I know exactly where he would have ended up without LearningRx. It’s impossible to say the impact this program has had on him, but we saw him improve in pretty much all aspects of his life including academics, athletics, and socially.

Dana (Appleton, WI)

Before starting this program, I struggled with auditory processing, which often made communication and focus more challenging. Now, not only has my auditory processing improved dramatically, but my productivity has skyrocketed, my memory is sharper, and my overall cognitive abilities have reached new heights.

Linzy (Highlands Ranch, CO)

LearningRx has been absolutely wonderful! The staff are caring, patient, and so supportive. Our son has made incredible progress — his teachers constantly comment on how much he’s improved both academically and behaviorally. We couldn’t be happier with his growth and the positive changes we’ve seen!

Steph (Eagan, MN)

My son’s memory has improved significantly in just a few months. He can recall things he did three years ago. His processing speed is much faster, and he is doing math more easily and quickly.

Parent (Cresskill, NJ)

When my son first started his cognitive training at LearningRx in February 2024, his speech and conversation reciprocity was very limited. Memory recall was an extreme challenge for him and his ability to reason and think things through were difficult tasks. Olivia, his trainer, is simply amazing! She was able to build a wonderful rapport with my son which is not easy given his challenges due to Autism. He has had many different therapists over the past 10 years, and no one has been able to reach him and teach him like Olivia has done.

Denise (Shoreview, MN)

I’ve been in the local LearningRx program for 5 months now, and I am seeing improvements in many ways—cognitive function, memory, executive function, visualization skills, confidence, and more. I am now more willing to try new things and challenge myself in new ways. I have a greater capacity to focus for longer periods of time…Additionally, my working memory and my logic and reasoning skills have increased significantly. My trainer was terrific throughout the whole program. I am grateful that I had the opportunity to go through the LearningRx program!

Gayle (Charlottesville, VA)

I worked remotely with Kim! She is amazing! This program helped me regain working memory skills, processing speed, & more after a traumatic brain injury! I HIGHLY recommend!!!

Emily (Chattanooga East, TN)

The training at LearningRx for my daughter helped on her attention and memory resulting in big improvement of the understanding and reading comprehension. The directors are very friendly, knowledgeable, and adaptive with well management skills.

Liping (Richmond Hill, ON)

LearningRx has been a transformative experience for my son. We chose it because we wanted to strengthen his cognitive skills, not just his academic performance. From the very first session, I noticed his confidence growing. The personalized, one-on-one approach helped target areas like attention, memory, and processing speed – skills that are often the root of learning challenges. His progress has been remarkable.

Karen (Shreveport, LA)

I decided to come to LearningRx because of my dyslexia and memory problems and how they were affecting my school work. As I worked through the LearningRx program I noticed significant gains in my memory and how fast I work through things. I noticed that I can read a lot faster and that I remember to turn in my homework or information for tests. LearningRx helped me improve my school work and I feel a lot more confident with everything I do. LearningRx has made all the difference in the world.

Kelsea (Shreveport, LA)

We have seen a tremendous improvement through LearningRx, including increased memory, processing and comprehension. The directors and instructor have been amazing to work with, and it’s been a great experience! Would highly recommend!

Joe (Richmond Hill, ON)

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)

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)

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)

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

Tracey & Josh (Indianapolis NE, IN)

I really appreciated how LearningRx was one-on-one interactive, tailored to our needs, and progressed based on my child’s performance. I appreciated how LearningRx used both evidence-based approaches along with a custom approach tailored specifically to our needs. We have seen improvement in our son’s understanding of school materials, quality of memory and communication at home, and overall attitude toward working and trying to improve and achieve.

Sam (Knoxville, TN)

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)

Jessica (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)

Ashley was absolutely wonderful for my son Jack. She was so patient with him and seemed to know exactly how to encourage him in the moment. I saw my son go from someone who spiraled in his thoughts to be able to think clearly and analyze them in a gentle way. He’s more confident in himself and how he expresses his emotions conversationally and internally. Very happy with the outcome.

Cheryl (Charlottesville, VA)

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)

LearningRx has been incredible for our son. He was struggling in math, memorizing information for tests, and struggling to pay attention in class. He was getting distracted really easily by other students and noises in the classroom and it hindered his ability to stay on task. My son’s confidence has skyrocketed, but more importantly than that it has elevated his level of grit.

Allie (Colorado Springs, CO)

My child is more confident in herself and school. She is not avoiding reading, she knows that she is capable and wants to continue to improve. She can focus easier and when she is told homework needs to get done, she gets it done. She is not running to use the bathroom as an excuse to avoid schoolwork.

Zaret (Glendale, AZ)

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)

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)

We came in looking for additional help, especially in reading, for our son who is so bright but was struggling with his schoolwork. The assessment affirmed what we thought as far as some cognitive skills which needed strengthening. I homeschool so I’ve been able to give him tons of one-on-one tutoring, but the improvement has been so slow. We are so excited about his progress and believe we have found just the right tool to make the bridges in his mind and give him the help he needs. Very thankful to have found this place!

Mindy (Savage, MN)

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)

The program is set up in such a way that I was able to progress with ease. My memory has definitely gotten stronger. I’m also able to remember and comprehend what I just read better.

Shannon (Indianapolis NE, IN)

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)

We’ve had an incredible experience with LearningRx in Peoria! My nephew has made huge progress, and one of the most noticeable changes has been how much less time he now spends on homework. What used to take hours is now done in a fraction of the time—and with far less frustration. Lara was especially wonderful to work with—she made the whole process smooth and supportive from day one. We’re so grateful for the care and attention he received. Highly recommend!

Kimberly (Glendale, AZ)

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)

We have really seen an improvement in our son’s cognitive ability since we started LearningRx. The trainers are exceptionally good, and we would highly recommend this course for anybody who is looking for a better way to learn!

Craig G. (Charlottesville, VA)

Aselin was having a very tough time in school, specifically with math. We went from constant tears over homework that she did not understand, low grades and not wanting to go to school. To now enjoying going to school, completing homework on her own and getting great grades.

Carter (Staunton-Harrisonburg, VA)

I am so thankful for the experience that my son had at LearningRx. I was searching for something to improve my 9-year-old’s focus, attention, memory, reading comprehension skills and LearningRx is the solution. After a rigorous 1:1 mental training program for ten months straight of 2x a week, we have witnessed our son’s significant improvement not only in school and classroom behaviors but also in daily life that he becomes more organized.

Ann (Irvine, CA)

My children trained at Learning Rx and the benefits prompted me to train too. I can remember more things more easily, can instruct/train others more effectively, and multitask better. My child went from staying after school just to keep up to leading the class! Memory, performance, grades, and engagement went up!! Time spent struggling, avoidance, and frustration all went down! Confidence growth went along with that but the pride of performance was amazing to see for the first time…The instructor has been a blessing. Highly recommended without reservation.

David (Charlottesville, VA)

We couldn’t thank the team at LearningRx enough! My oldest has ADHD and he was facing some pretty serious learning struggles. LearningRx has helped my son overcome some of these struggles. Dargan went into an in-depth dive into my son’s brain and how his brain works. I was in tears (good tears) when I saw his results. We finally had answers, and a new doorway opened up for us. Brain training at LearningRx was an excellent choice!

Ashley (Charlottesville, VA)

Our daughter has enjoyed LearningRx and went from struggling to finish assignments to completing them and doing them correctly. She never wanted to read on her own without prompting and now will pick up books by herself to read. She said this is her best school year so far which is a huge change from the previous years. She is able to remember what is being told to her without having to repeatedly tell her.

Lindsey (River Valley, AR)

Improvements in working memory, confidence, and computing skills. I have seen improvements specifically at work with ability to memorize orders for a period of time. I am excited to see what impacts I see as I begin to take classes this coming semester.

Clara (Minnetonka, MN)

I am so thankful for Kathi and LearningRx! I was able to get my mom’s memory assessed and it was better than we hoped. We also have a great 12-week plan and long-term strategy to keep her as sharp as possible. My mom is so happy! Kathi’s knowledge, experience and patience was fantastic! Now I am getting my daughter in to see her as soon as possible before she heads to college!

Patti (Highland Ranch, CO)

Since starting LearningRx, my children have gained confidence within themselves as well as their schoolwork. Their grades have improved, and schoolwork (homework) is not dreadful task like before. My children have also become more responsible. Not only at school, but at home as well,

Ms Ward (Texarkana, TX)

My daughter (13) did a customized training course focusing on reading comprehension and memory retention. Leah was her trainer for the entirety of training. My daughter saw dramatic results that have been sustained and carried through into her school year. I would highly recommend the training programs of LearningRX and the highly skilled staff that delivers the training.

Tiffany (Alpharetta, GA)

LearningRx is the best decision my family ever made for my daughter. We didn’t tell her teachers that she was getting executive functioning coaching, so it’s amazing when they comment on how much more on top of things she has become this year! My daughter feels like her coach is her best friend and is excited every time she has class.

Erin (Cedar Rapids, IA)

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)

My daughter recently completed their program and we couldn’t be happier with the results! She was struggling so badly despite being medicated for her ADHD. We tested and started the program in the early November and noticed results as soon as she was back in school. Her improvements continued as her standardized testing scores went up and most importantly her confidence and believing she could accomplish things on her own! Would do the program again in a heartbeat, the financial and time commitments are a small price to pay for something that can help my child for the rest of their life!

Jennifer (Chattanooga East, TN)

My brain is doing so much better (after 3 major strokes) doing this program online 3 sessions/week. It’s challenging, but my trainer is terrific.

Jannee (Highlands Ranch, CO)

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.
