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 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)

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)

LearningRx in Shoreview is absolutely incredible. We are amazed at the progress our 8-year-old grandson has made since September. Focus, processing, memory functions and reading fluency have all been positively impacted. The staff is friendly and well trained. We couldn’t be more pleased with our experience.

Jeanne (Shoreview, MN)

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 LearningRx.

Sonia (Glendale, AZ)

We couldn’t be more pleased with the LearningRx program and the progress our daughter made in specific cognitive areas. Tiffany Leader and the Franklin team challenged our daughter to achieve milestones, which also boosted her confidence across the board. I would definitely recommend LearningRx Franklin for anyone who needs a little brain boost!

Kristin (Franklin, TN)

This program has given him the confidence he needed to conquer school. Our child has gained confidence to read that he lacked, he has become more fluent in reading, he has a more positive outlook on school.

Kathy (River Valley, AR)

Huge academic improvements in all directions. Improvements in reading, listening, logic, behavioral treatment toward people. Limitless topics.

Naomi (Savage, MN)

We can see improvement in his social skills and improvement in school performance. Created a caring atmosphere for our son.

Tina (Sugar Land, 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)

Our son is 8 years old and has struggled since 3 years old to focus. Starting to learn to read and figuring out letters has been very difficult…Mel is motivating to him and continues to push him to his potential. In the first month the change we saw in our son’s focus was jaw dropping!..Within 3 months of beginning the program our son has started to read full homework page assignments and complete them on his own! Mel and this program has completely changed our lives to which we will be eternally grateful.

Nicholaus (Cary, NC)

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)

LearningRx has been a God sent blessing to us. They love each child here and breathe life into each student. They love and care, they have become like family. The amount of confidence my child has shown within himself, and his schoolwork makes me so proud of him! This has been by far the BEST experience ever! We are so grateful!

Ariel (Texarkana, TX)

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)

The trainers were excellent and helped Lucas improve so much in processing speed and logic. LearningRx has helped our son so much in improving his processing speed, focus and memory.

Jainy (Sugar Land, TX)

Maureen was very caring about my son needs and struggles and helped us gain a better insight and a better picture on how to keep helping him grow and develop. His recommendations were custom- tailored to my son’s challenges and needs. Thank you!

Shamira (Tysons, VA)

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)

David has done an amazing job helping me with tutoring for ministry college classes, thank you so much David. It’s made all the difference!

Abby (Louisville-Springhurst, KY)

This program has been very beneficial for my daughter and the main reason for that is her trainer Mo. Mo has been able to connect with and be encouraging and supportive in a way that has been amazing. The focus of this program is on building strengths and facilitating progress – Mo really has been making a difference and we really appreciate her and this program!

Elise (Cary, NC)

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)

Kathi and her team at LearningRx are amazing! It was very helpful to learn how our kid’s brains work and how we can help improve their progress in school and life. Brain training is so impactful. Highly recommend people and families check out what it can do for their family.

Holly (Highlands Ranch, CO)

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)

He does seem to get his work done quicker and more independently – depending on the subject. He is also writing more notes in class. He is not complaining anymore about reading although he still struggles with answering questions about what he read. His frustration level has improved some as well as persevering.

Melanie (Glendale, AZ)

The quality of life for our daughter has been greatly improved. We have seen huge life changing results and are deeply grateful for the people at Learning Rx! They truly care and it shows in everything they do.

Lorena (Chattanooga East, TN)

It was not a one size fits all program. The tested progress along the way, made necessary adjustment to ensure progress was happening. The director was always available if we needed anything, answered all our questions and make sure we were comfortable before we started, during the training and following graduation.

Stephanie (Minneapolis, MN)

My son got great results, and he enjoyed it. They were always flexible and got the best out of him. He is processing faster, and his speech skills have improved.

Ms Holland (Texarkana, TX)

Our son has made a lot of positive progress during his time at LearningRx. His reading has improved, confidence is much higher, and school has become less of a struggle. Before LearningRx he needed a lot of direction from his teacher at school and a lot of tears and feeling left behind by his peers. The staff is amazing and care so much for students and their success.

Erica (Fort Collins, CO)

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)

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)

Desmond has been known in school for his high intelligence and ability to catch on to concepts and even help his peers understand. Yet, even from a young age he was sometimes labeled as “defiant” or “lazy” because he would forget to put away a chair, or turn in his homework, or even remember to write down he had homework. LearningRx has been an answer to prayer. Desmond has had improvement in memory, articulation, processing, being able to hurry, being less overwhelmed. He gained confidence as his desires and his performance began to match up. Thank you!

Mike (Shreveport, LA)

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)

They were thorough and our child’s improvement speaks for itself. His confidence in reading in front of his class, his memory and problem-solving skills improved.

Amanda (Raleigh, NC)

Tiffany is great throughout the process with checking in and communication. Trainers were easy to get in touch with and coordinate schedules. This is a great group.

John (Franklin, TN)

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 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)

Helped our daughter in a host of ways, from learning and thinking skills, increased confidence and self-esteem, to auditory and visual processing improvements.

Michael (Colorado Springs, CO)

My daughter has been doing brain training with Learning Rx for maybe a month and a half now, and to begin with, the assessment alone is a game-changer and gave us clarity regarding some issues we were having with my daughter’s homeschool performance. I have already seen improvement in her reading and comprehension and in her willingness to put forth effort in new tasks. We can’t wait to see what all our amazing girl is capable of at the end of the program.

Dana (Chattanooga East, TN)

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)

The trainers are dedicated and really care about the kids. My son is more confident in his abilities. The trainers have helped him learn how to work hard even when the work is hard.

Sara (Savage, MN)

LearningRx provided great care and confidence for my son who had specific areas of weakness in processing speeds and over all higher thinking. Sandy was incredibly helpful, patient, insightful and flexible while we worked through my son’s program.

Natalie (Staunton-Harrisonburg, VA)

We saw measurable results that would benefit others. He connected with Xander and did a great job of motivating and guiding him through the program. Even when Xander had tough times and struggled, he worked with him to keep going.

Tessa (NWA South, AR)

This experience has been beyond my expectations. The relationship my son had with his brain trainer and how she gave space for him to be himself was the best part for me. I loved the lived experience of watching him become a stronger version of himself!

Jennifer (Chattanooga East, TN)

We reached out to LearningRX when our son was about to enter the fifth grade. There had been many struggles through traditional public school with reading and keeping up with math facts and focus in general…when we went to LearningRX they helped us understand that it was a processing skill that was needing to be relearned. We have been with LearningRX for several months now and have seen a lot of change in our son with confidence to face new things.

Lindsey (Charlottesville, VA)

We have seen the greatest change in her confidence and a more positive outlook on learning all around.

Chris (Pine River, 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)

My son was reluctant to sign up, but became more engaged once he started making progress. Further along in Learning RX, he became a self starter with his school work and could stay on task for longer periods of time with his improved focus, and ability to tackle more difficult material.

Lee Anne (Charlottesville, VA)

When we brought our six year old son to Learning Rx he was in special ed for reading and math. He was spending more time in the principle’s office than in his classroom. He is now in regular class for both reading and math. He has not gone to the principle’s office this school year. When asked why he liked Learning Rx he stated that it helped his brain think like all the other kids. We highly recommend this program. The cost and the time spent is well worth the return.

Steve (Chattanooga East, TN)

We are over a 1/4 of the way through the Read Rx program and I am so very pleased with the progress my daughter has made. Her trainers, Carolyn H. and Kim W. are excellent. Rejoice in her victories and help her with her struggles. Thank you for an excellent program!

Michelle (Cary, NC)

His trainer was fantastic and they were very flexible with scheduling. He can do math so much faster and easier. He listens and follows directions better and is able to stay on task with fewer reminders.

Katherine (Tysons, VA)

We’ve been bringing our daughter to the LearningRx for a few years now. We love the staff and have seen amazing results with our daughter. Besides reading improvements and mental math accomplishments, our daughter’s confidence has greatly increased!

Laura (Dublin, OH)

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)

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