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

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)

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)

Donesa and her team are phenomenal. The improvement we have seen in both of our children is amazing. Well worth the time and money.

SM (Shreveport, LA)

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)

LearningRx has been so beneficial to our 7-yr old who was struggling with reading. Seeing his progress over the months and through the pre- and post-program assessments has been incredible. Maureen and her team are so kind and supportive and figure out what each kid needs individually to grow their confidence and brain skills! Thank you, LearningRx!

Amy (Tysons, VA)

Jacob began a journey of improving the areas that were holding him back from improving all areas of learning. He was working 10 times harder than all the other kids in school but not seeing much return. Now, I see him working hard, able to stay focused, and see the right response from the work he puts in… which has increased his ability to want to learn.

Amanda (Pensacola, FL)

LearningRx training program helped our son become a better student. He is able to focus better and improve his working memory as well as short and long memory. I higher recommend this training program to parents who have kids struggling with school.

Justin (Pensacola, FL)

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)

My daughter was paired with the perfect coach for her personality, and she grew tremendously where her skills lacked. Amelia’s grades went from C’s, D’s and F’s to A’s and B’s! She’s more confident and doesn’t shy away from reading. Plus, she loves school again.

Kristen (Pensacola, FL)

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)

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)

We had our 11th grade son go to LearningRx because he was struggling with reading comprehension and listening comprehension. We were a bit worried that it would be too elementary as the other programs we looked into were. We were pleasantly surprised by the result and highly recommend it to anyone! Our son was able to make gains in all areas as well as gain much needed confidence to tackle any future challenge that comes his way!

Kellie (Woodbury, MN)

Kenlee was really struggling as a student going into the 2nd grade. She was homeschooled and is going back to public school. She was reading on a kinder level and now, within 6 months, she is on grade level. Her confidence is also great!

Ms Sillivan (Texarkana, TX)

She is confident in what she can do. Her reading and writing skills have improved, and her vision of her future is very clear now.

Giovana (Huntsville, TX)

Math was always a struggle for her and in the last month, she’s been completing her assignments on her own without asking for help at all (she used to ask for help at least a few times every assignment) and she’s been getting 90+% on every one! Her attitude toward school in general has improved tremendously. She no longer drags her feet when it’s time to work; has a smile on her face instead!

Huk (Fort Collins, CO)

LearningRx has made a HUGE difference in my son’s ability to read and write, as well as his math and attention-based skills in general. He and I had already worked very hard for years using Logic of English, and made progress, but it wasn’t enough to keep him at grade level. He’s gone from a 4th-grade level to an 8th-grade level in 9 months… Additionally, he’s been doing his work with his trainer, so he’s been able to make good use of his extra time at home.

Heidi (Charlottesville, VA)

Wilson’s life has changed because of LearningRx. She is reading and has become quite independent and a self-starter. We are very impressed by her results! Very easy to work with and strong communication. An all-around wonderful experience!

Jamie (NWA South, AR)

Our daughter started the ReadRx program in November, mid-pandemic. At the halfway point she was reading at grade level, and reading magazines and chapter books – for fun! Her reading continued to improve…and by the time she finished, we saw huge improvements in her processing speed and ability to recall information. The program is hard work, but worth every bit of effort!

Heather (Charlottesville, VA)

It is a good place because they helped my son. I saw his improvement in reading, math, attention, memory and less distraction.

Nawal (St. Paul, MN)

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)

Overall a fantastic experience. The owner and her team are all great people to work with and most importantly my son showed lots of progress and truly enjoyed it.

Nick (Appleton, WI)

The staff is amazing and Nicks progress is proof of how amazing this program is! I’m so proud of him and how much he improved and his confidence. Molly is amazing, and so informative. She always made nick feel comfortable and welcome in this program. She kept me updated all year and I couldn’t ask for better service.

Nicole (Louisville-Springhurst, KY)

Our son has improved his reading, writing and math over the course of the last 6 months with brain training. Before we started working with LearningRx our son was very resistant to working on improving in these areas because he lacked the confidence in his skills. We now see him sharing his accomplishments with others, and more willing to work independently and receive help when needed. We could not be happier with the results of brain training.

Amanda (Pensacola, FL)

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)

My son showed significant improvement in school related learning and testing.

Amber (Alpharetta, GA)

My daughter is still loving Learning Rx! We are seeing some great results! My daughter’s processing speed is increasing. She is developing better conversation skills. She is becoming more confident. This is totally worth money!

Heidi (Shoreview, MN)

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 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)

This is such a special organization. We invested in our son‘s future through LearningRx, and are very pleased with the results even after six months! We focused on auditory processing to balance with visual processing. The staff is very intelligent and personable and flexible support our family needs. I would recommend LearningRx to anybody at any age actually to build those neural pathways!

Michelle (Colorado Springs, CO)

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)

The speed at which Colt was able to improve his reading, to the point of not needing much help from us was remarkable.

Andria (Rogers, MN)

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)

LearningRx doesn’t just focus on academics and learning but also gives you the confidence to live your best life! Before LearningRx my son was afraid to try almost anything new. He was paralyzed by his fear. He has improved confidence to not just tackle academics but also to live his best life!

Stephanie (Colorado Springs, CO)

We love the experience we have had there so far. My son who has severe dyslexia has made significant improvement in just 3 months!

Kristy (Chattanooga East, TN)

We have two children who are half way through the program and so far we are pleased with the results. The trainers have laid the foundation that will allow our children to excel in the second half of their programs. We can see their confidence growing and we look forward to them improving in all academic areas especially reading comprehension.

Mark (Charlottesville, VA)

My child had a positive experience and she was able to reach her goals. The wonderful team provided great support throughout session.

Lavanya (Richmond Hill, ON)

LearningRx has been a game-changer for both of my boys! We’ve seen remarkable progress in their cognitive skills—far beyond our expectations. What truly set the LearningRx Eagan program apart is the patience, precision, and genuine empathy each instructor brings. Every coach is deeply committed to their students’ success—and it shows in every session. We feel incredibly fortunate to have found LearningRx and can’t recommend it highly enough to any family looking to unlock their child’s full potential.

Abhik (Eagan, MN)

He has a better attention span, seems more organized and is able to be more flexible and less rigid. His speech is also more fluent and he is able to complete his work faster than before training.

Anne (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)

We are just a month or so in to my boys training, and I have already seen significant improvement. We chose to do the home training a couple hours a week, which I wasn’t sure was going to be doable. Although some weeks are more of a challenge than others, we have been able to accomplish it every week so far. I prayed for weeks for the Lord to show me what I needed to do for my boys, and He led me to Learning RX in an overwhelming way.

Kelli (Chattanooga East, TN)

My child made great progress during the program and all of the staff is welcoming and helpful! We have loved our time here.

Candice (NWA South, AR)

The program trainers worked hard to challenge Deacon in such a way to have optimal growth in reading and comprehension. The center and brain training activities were engaging and kept Deacon in a place of wanting to continue with things that are very hard for him. He was cared for and he could tell he was liked and being championed each time he had a session. Deacon now has more confidence in reading.

Chuck (NWA South, AR)

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)

The program is great. It improved Devin a lot of skill such as word attack, auditory processing etc. it will be benefit for Devin whole life.

Helena (Richmond Hill, ON)

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)

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)

Now I can finally read and sound out words! I can now read because of Mrs. Donesa and the LearningRx program! Before LearningRx, I thought I was just dumb! Some kids made fun of me because I could not read our sound out words. I did not like myself very much. Now I do! I can now participate in classes at school and church and not be embarrassed or afraid to read out loud or give answers like the other students. I am finally making decent grades! Now my mom cries when I read to her because I can read!

Tanner (Shongaloo, LA)

My child enjoyed the sessions with Emily very much. There were times when he was very tired after school, but he insisted on attending the training. He could feel the benefit of the brain training – paying attention to class and staying focused on homework, so he was motivated to go even when he was tired. Not only has his speed improved, but also the accuracy of the work itself. Thanks Emily and LearningRx!

IL (Richmond Hill, ON)

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

Fatima (Short Hills, NJ)

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)

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