Wow, thank you Learning RX! We have been amazed at the fantastic results of your Brain Training program for our 13 year old daughter. Her grades & confidence in learning & herself have grown remarkably in just a short amount of time working with Learning RX. This is an excellent program and we highly recommend it!

Jim (Charlottesville, VA)

During and after training we have seen a lot of great improvements in my son. There was a big leap in maturity and ability to think reasonably and logically about situations and problems. His task endurance has gone up significantly. Reading ability has improved. Overall his grades at school are really good. His ability to participate in group work has greatly improved. Thanks to Nick and the wonderful folks at LearningRx!

Lacy (Charlottesville, VA)

[My son] has taken on the role of student as his personal responsibility and shown success as an A/B/C student. Prior to LearningRx, passing grades were a struggle in some subject areas. To quote my son upon recently finishing an 8-month journey with Learning RX, so reluctant to participate at the outset…“I have improved at everything we have been working on, day in and day out: reading, numbers, focus, remembering…everything. I feel like the program was totally worth it.” I can’t say enough about the program and would recommend it to anyone whose child is struggling with ADHD.

Tonia (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)

I’m definitely seeing improvements in my child’s overall confidence with school. Reading has improved tremendously as well as spelling and handwriting. Organizational skills are also much improved. Our trainer was absolutely amazing! 6th grade is off to a good start!!

Matthew (Charlottesville, VA)

My son has gained much more confidence and focus while taking this course. He is more organized and willing to take on challenges knowing he can use the skills learned in Rx to work through any problem. He was not comfortable taking ADHD medicine prior to Rx and now we feel he may never need it!

Nickie H. (Charlottesville, VA)

Learning RX has had a wonderful effect on my son Roman. After several weeks of fast paced and fun online activity with a tutor, Roman had his first week of school. Roman, who last year had difficulty sitting at the computer and getting anything done in his post-covid, post-physical school sessions, was attentive, composed, and capable, in a way I have not seen before for this type of activity. Thanks to the excellently designed system and team for their work.

William (Charlottesville, VA)

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 completed a 6 month course of brain training with LearningRX…I found Dargan through the Stroke Comback club after his presentation there and I was hooked. I suffered a second stroke…and had to stop working as a Registered Nurse…Because of the stroke, I suffered memory and concentration issues and even lost reading and writing ability. LearningRX gave me the confidence to live on my own independently.

Jean (Charlottesville, VA)

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)

We began in the last month of a school year, with my 12 year old, flighty, eccentric little girl. On the side over the summer, this kid who always wanted to read along with audio books started reading chapter books for fun. I was encouraged. Then school started. We just finished our first week, and I noticed HUGE gains in her work. She focuses even on “boring” textbook reading really well, and her retention and comprehension is fantastic. I know she’s going to be able to make up for lost time on reading, writing, and math. I even noticed handwriting improvement!

Dana (Charlottesville, VA)

My son had a TBI (due to an AVM) at the age of 19. We were told about LearningRx and that they were very successful with TBI patients. We attended for 8 months. It was not an easy journey for him, but with his trainer, Will, Dargan and the staff at LearningRX he might not have possibly accomplished what he has done in the past 10 years. Since then he has graduated with an Associate Degree, Bachelor Degree, assistant coach/head coach of his middle school since 2014. Happily married, two beautiful boys, and just passed his physical trainer test.

Marianne (Charlottesville, VA)

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)

LearningRX is making a huge difference for our son in so many ways. The beginning of his time in the program happened to coincide with the Covid-19 pandemic. I’d say if looking for a silver lining we had one here for sure. Highly recommend, they take great consideration when pairing learners with trainers and the follow up/check in meetings and overall communication is excellent!

Mindy (Charlottesville, VA)

LearningRx has been so awesome and such a blessing for me!…I had never really planned ahead well or been an organizer type of person, but I had done well in school. So we found LearningRx, and in addition to my already recognized struggles, their pre-assessment revealed other areas of weaknesses that needed to be addressed. My focus and concentration have gotten a lot better, and it is harder to be distracted, by myself or others. My working memory and ability to use logic to figure various daily scenarios out has also improved…I would highly recommend LearningRx to others!

Rebecca (Charlottesville, VA)

LearningRx has fundamentally changed our son’s approach to not only his education, but his life in terms of confidence and self-assurance. The approach taken by his trainer (Cathy) has resonated with him on every level and has made our lives easier…We highly suggest LearningRx for individuals of all ages and hope your success matches ours.

Mollie (Charlottesville, VA)

The skills that my daughter developed while working with Francesca are invaluable. My daughter’s improved reading skills alone are life changing; they will affect nearly every class she attends, and will probably affect her career choice. Her improved attention and listening abilities have reduced her frustration with school subjects, and thus make her more compliant. She doesn’t panic when she can’t immediately decode a word or grasp a concept. She has learned that there are strategies to make these challenges manageable.

Laura (Charlottesville, VA)

I am certain that my brain works better now than it did even before I got sick. I am thrilled and appreciative. My children (ages 7 and 8) have also trained and have seen great results. If you have a child with ADHD or a child who is struggling to learn to read, training at LearningRx can be life-changing, even when other interventions fail.

Ellie (Charlottesville, VA)

The director and staff of trainers are awesome. They demonstrated their care and concern for my successful completion of the program each time I had class. I have spoken highly of them to others and recommended them to several people that I felt could benefit from the program.

Pamela (Charlottesville, VA)

After covid my son found himself 2 1/2 years behind in reading. With ADHD and Dyslexia and so much time missed in the classroom he needed more help then the school could offer. After 9 months we have seen tremendous progress. It is a big commitment both financially and time but it was worth it.

Richard (Charlottesville, VA)

My daughter trained here for almost a year. It was the best decision and commitment we could have made! She emerged an entirely new student and adolescence. She has problem solving skills and the confidence to apply them now. She has the work ethic to keep going when things get tough. Honestly I just can’t say enough great things about what this program did for my daughter!

Jenn (Charlottesville, VA)

Learning Rx has been a wonderful program for our son! He thoroughly enjoyed working with his trainer as well as with other staff members. Since completing the program, our son has greatly improved in the areas of focusing on tasks, regulating his emotions, and thinking things through. I highly recommend Learning Rx to anyone!

Ken (Charlottesville, VA)

Learning RX has been very beneficial for my 11 year old. I can see improvements already (just about 3 months) with her memory, attention and focus. She is also building confidence as she progresses through the exercises and the various levels. With her learning challenges, she has always struggled with self-esteem. Her trainer is hands-down amazing. She gives her the perfect amount of support while also pushing her to keep going forward when things get really challenging. It’s obvious she has a genuine interest and deeply cares about my daughter’s progress and future success.

Kelly (Charlottesville, VA)

My trainer, Telisa, was exceptional, and I am incredibly grateful to have had such a motivating yet challenging individual to coach me through this extremely difficult program. I wish my friends, and family could experience this type of training, which I believe improves nearly every aspect of your life regarding decision-making, behavior, and overall self-confidence.

Katerina (Charlottesville, VA)

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 are so happy that we found LearningRx! Trainer Margaret encouraged and helped our boy reach his benchmarks. We saw improvements in his self-esteem in learning, as well as improvements in his academics. We highly recommend LearningRx!

Deanna (Charlottesville, VA)

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)

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)

This is an evidence-based training that was conducted with the utmost organization and professionalism and resulted in appreciable improvements in my child’s school performance but more importantly, on his well-being. This was money well invested. I had contact with four different staff members, all very knowledgeable and professional. My child’s trainer was fantastic. Her commitment to my child’s improvement was evident.

Shadia C. (Charlottesville, VA)

My son has been in the LearningRx program for two months. He is enjoying the work and sessions with the trainer. He is already noticing improvement with his memory, mental processing speed and self-confidence.

Jackie (Charlottesville, VA)

My 11 year old son has been doing Learning Rx all summer and we have noticed many positive changes. He is following through with directions much better, He is more focused on his work and he is more engaged. I think he’s starting to feel more confident as a learner. I am so glad we had the opportunity to this at this time because it has prepared him well for virtual school this year.

Dominique (Charlottesville, VA)

Ana (Charlottesville, VA)

Learning RX has been such an amazing experience for my 7 year old son who most likely has dyslexia. We are so happy with the results and are amazed at how reading is now so much easier for him than it was before. He can now effortlessly blend 3 letter words together whereas before he started training there he could hardly blend 2 letter words and hated reading. Now it’s coming much easier and his confidence is high and reading is much more enjoyable!

Christa H. (Charlottesville, VA)

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)

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)

Our son was barely reading in 4th grade and now he is reading confidently and enjoying it. He volunteers to read regularly and there has been a huge change in his attitude as well because he is confident in his reading! If you are on the fence just do it! It’s a lot but so worth it!

Brenda (Charlottesville, VA)

My son struggled hard with reading. The approach to learning has helped him flourish. His reading comprehension is by and far improved, and he is reading whole pages without stumbling. Highly recommend for all ages and learning styles, for ADD/ADHD and other learning disabilities. It’s one thing for us to be proud of his progress, but it’s something wholly different for him to be proud and confident.

Jes D. (Charlottesville, VA)

LearningRx introduced me to the term “neuroplasticity,” and I have seen its effects in both of my sons…Not only did their grades improve at the time, but in the years since then, they have continued to benefit from the skills they developed from their LearningRx training. The improved ability to focus is one such skill…My other son benefitted especially in the area of math skills, and he is still able to mentally perform math calculations with amazing speed.

Linz (Charlottesville, VA)

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)

I turned 68 and finished my training at RX Learning in Charlottesville a few weeks ago. Michelle, my trainer, made my experience enjoyable, beneficial and relevant. Some of the many benefits of the program for me include: improved ability to maintain focus for longer periods of time; improved ability to ignore distractions; improved long and short term memory; acquisition of problem solving skills that I use on a regular basis; and most importantly – knowing that I can tackle everyday life issues with confidence and flexibility.

Susan (Charlottesville, VA)

I was very pleased with the service I received from LearningRX. My child was substantially delayed when we entered the program. After 150+ lessons my daughter was able to correct her deficiencies and more importantly the skills she learned will help her in the future. In addition, I must mention professionalism of the entire team through frequent check-in meetings/follow-ups about the progress child is making as well as inquiring about anything additional they can do.

Drazenka K. (Charlottesville, VA)

Following a hospital stay for long Covid, I became aware that LearningRx was offering a program to help clients that had experienced this disease. The program was creative, and I actually enjoyed the cognitive challenge of each session as I advanced thru the skills . Following this program I feel that I am now much more productive than I use to be and it’s easier to adjust to changes in routines.

Judith (Charlottesville, VA)

I can not thank Michelle enough for all of your help with my son! I was extremely nervous about my son starting middle school. He did such an amazing job navigating around zoom. He is self-starting, helping his classmates and feeling confident. If it wasn’t for Learning RX I feel his new way of learning would have a much different outcome.

Cindy (Charlottesville, VA)

My 15-year old was struggling with getting school work done and for the first time lacked confidence that he could do it. Middle school had been effortless but remote high school was proving to be a problem. Specifically he was having problems reading and retaining the story and meaning of the Odyssey. The journey through LearningRX not only worked on his learning skills but also on the mindset that my son can push through the hard work and do things he did not think he could. The confidence he got from the program is priceless.

Rachel (Charlottesville, VA)

The transition from High School to College was rough (with COVID complications). My daughter’s confidence was shot and her focus was distracted as best given the unusual stressful events. Learning Rx was a God send. With my daughter’s commitment and the guidance of a highly inspirational instructor, my daughter improved her memory and ability to tune out distractions. She learned how to establish a plan for study patterns and follow through on that plan. Her confidence level is remarkably better and is supported by her improved performance at college.

Lara (Charlottesville, VA)

My daughter was diagnosed with ADD…Fortunately, I did not wait too long after this diagnosis to bring her to Rx. Her struggles consisted of: difficulty reading, spelling, processing information as well as the inability to retain it (short term and long term memory.) What used to be 20 min. Intervals of school work at a time has become day-long endurance…Not only is her reading off the charts, but her comprehension was a benefit that I didn’t expect. Thank you, Dargan, Michelle and the whole team – we are forever grateful!

Kimberly (Charlottesville, VA)

Shannon and Sofia did a spectacular job of encouraging and training a kid who has already significantly struggled in school and was very reluctant to engage in learning to open up out of her shell. They did an amazing job! To be fair, this is not an inexpensive tutoring service, but there is the potential for great improvement for kids who may have struggled with other academic support programs.

Matthew (Charlottesville, VA)

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)

Dargan and Michelle were amazing to work with at LearningRx Charlottesville, walking along side us each step of the way and doing everything they could to make our experience a successful one. Their expertise and compassion was just what my son needed to help get him to the next level of his cognitive development. We’ve tried a lot of other modalities in the past, and I’d highly recommend giving LearningRx a chance!

Erin (Charlottesville, VA)

I started LearningRx knowing what it can do having been a past trainee and was specific about developing my short term and long-term memory and ability to process information faster. I graduated with a very noticeably improved mind. I can read my bank routing and remember it now. I recall people’s names, and I can hear a joke and remember it 4 hours later. I used to struggle with groups of information and now I can process it and make it work for me!
