Math Help in Cresskill

There’s a lot more to math than simple numbers. Students need a strong sense of how numbers work, plus strong skills including short-term and long-term memory, logic and reasoning, and sustained attention skills. At LearningRx, we target these skills, and we work with students on key mathematical concepts, such as:

Thinking in numbers and quantities
Reading and writing math calculations
Analyzing and solving math problems

Our skills assessment will pinpoint the areas where math training can offer the most help for you or your child. Find a location near you and strengthen math skills today!

We have seen a huge improvement in his math scores at school and his ability to stay on task at home while working on homework.”

Your child may or may not achieve the same results as past LearningRx clients. But give us a call. We’d love to work with you, too!

Brain Training or Tutoring for Math Skills?

If you’re looking for math help, a math tutor might seem similar to brain training. In fact, brain training and math tutoring involve different approaches, and each one works best for different types of learners.

A math tutor will take a similar approach to teaching math that kids find at school. This can be helpful for students who’ve missed classes or benefit from repeating material. However, if students are having trouble in math class because they need to strengthen underlying skills, they’ll have just as much trouble with math tutoring.

This is where brain training offers a different approach to math help. Rather than simply repeating classroom content, brain training has helped students build the underlying cognitive skills that students use for math. The goal is for students to understand math more quickly, easily, and naturally all on their own.

Hear from our Students and Families

Homework was a nightly battle—three hours of stress, tears, and very little progress. Then we found LearningRx. We went in for the evaluation, and for the first time, we saw a new approach—one that focused on how the brain learns, not just what to learn. That summer, Rosa started the program. At first, it wasn’t easy getting her there, but the team made it fun and engaging. Pretty soon, she was the one reminding me it was time to go. She finished the program, got her picture on the wall, and something just clicked.

Brian (Eagan, MN)

My daughter’s reading and math ability improved greatly while my daughter was this is program. Trainers are knowledgeable, patient, professional and flexible.

Lara (Charlottesville, VA)

When I first came to LearningRx I was not sure they could help me. I had not learned how to focus and I had real problems with math—all kinds. Then I began to see results of the training as did others around me. The most drastic results were noticed by my math tutor. She could not believe the focus and memory that I now had.

Annie (Shreveport, LA)

My son has progressed in his reading & math skills tremendously.

Ms Jackson (Texarkana, TX)

Our son and us were fortunate to have found LearningRx to help him with so many important aspects of his everyday life. He eagerly attended 107 brain training sessions that he gave his best effort, energy and determination to get the most out of every minute he was there. Our son has seen so many improvements, I can’t list them all here, but I’ll highlight a few of the most important ones – many around improvements to his safety. His ability to focus, concentrate and speed processing could not be more different than when he started.

John (Woodbury, MN)

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)

The improvements my daughter has made in confidence, reading, math, and in such a short time.

Laura (Dublin, OH)

We saw improvements in math, logic and reasoning, spelling, comprehension and processing speed. Rikki attends a school with a rigorous curriculum, and she is putting more effort into her work now that things have improved.

Jessica (Atlanta-Buckhead, GA)

In just a few months, noticeable improvements emerged—enhanced focus and attention, making it easier for him to grasp new concepts. Having successfully completed the program, his confidence has soared, and he now navigates school effortlessly. Math tests no longer evoke apprehension, and he has evolved into a more independent and efficient learner.

Kathyn (Atlanta-Buckhead, GA)

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)

It’s helped me come a long way in a short time the instructors are easy to understand and make learning math enjoyable to learn.

Nico (Sugarland, TX)

I just completed 12 weeks of training at LearningRx and could not be happier with the experience. Over the course of the program, I noticed steady and meaningful improvements: faster speed on exercises, greater confidence with mental math (especially addition and multiplication under time pressure), and better focus even with auditory distractions. I also became more consistent at sustaining attention, switching tasks quickly, and tolerating interruptions without losing momentum.

Danielle (Eagan, MN)

My son has benefitted greatly from being at Learning RX! I strongly encourage anyone on the fence to at least try it! We have been seen drastic improvements in confidence, reading, math, attention span, willingness, engagement, and more!

Brooke (Louisville-Springhurst, KY)

Reading comprehension has improved. Math skills have improved.

Melissa (Chandler, AZ)

The confidence he has gained, even during the difficult parts. Everybody is always so positive and uplifting. He is better at sticking to the difficult parts and can himself see his own improvements. Logan has improved almost 2 full grade levels in reading. He has more stamina for reading. He is retaining math information better, and knows he is now ‘really good’ at math.

Jessica (Pensacola, FL)

Jacci and her team have done wonders for our daughter! She’s gained confidence, learned tools to help her with math problems, and her reading skills have improved by leaps and bounds!

SC (Appleton, WI)

Noticeable improvement in study habit. She’s become a more diligent worker. She can focus for a longer period of time when doing schoolwork. She understands math more than she used to.

Sonia (Chandler, AZ)

My daughter struggled with mathematics. The training and tutoring offered by LearningRx is a game changer.

Hugo (Shreveport, LA)

This place is the BEST! Both my sons went here starting in Kinder and the only thing I regret is NOT doing it sooner! They have boosted their confidence and got them reading in no time! How do I forget about there math skills too – great place!

Jacoba C. (Chandler, AZ)

I cannot express how impressed I am with their service. My son has tested out of his grade for reading and math when before he was struggling with both.

CW (Appleton, WI)

Our experience with Jacci and her team at LearningRx was fantastic! Our daughter started the program the summer before 3rd grade with goals to improve her reading fluency and math concepts…As she worked through the LearningRx program, her self-confidence and processing speed drastically improved, she no longer needed “special help” at school and she got A’s in reading and math! The encouragement and support from the staff was incredible! Thank you to Jacci, Olivia, and the entire team! We are absolutely thrilled with our daughter’s results and are forever grateful!

Sarah (Appleton, WI)

Tatum is so much more willing to try hard things, his reading has improved tremendously. We recently had a parent/teacher conference, and his teacher had such great things to say about him. He is being a leader in his classroom (which is new for him), he is working hard, and his math and reading skills are right where they should be.

Sara (Appleton, WI)

We have been very pleased with Kaelyn’s second round of training. The staff understood what she specifically needed and helped her to build more confidence and better math and comprehension skills. We have seen so many improvements.

Elena (Reston, VA)

We are 4 months into my 10yr old daughter’s brain training. I could not be more grateful for this program. Her trainer Francesca is AMAZING she really took her time getting to know my daughter so she can train and encourage her well. I have been so impressed with everyone’s knowledge and communication…My daughter is already feeling more confident in school during both reading and math. I am so glad we found LearningRx!

Daniela (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)

After completing a 20-week program, we’ve seen great improvements in her abilities at school. She is better able to stay focused and deal with distractions, something that had previously been a challenge. Her confidence has soared and this boost in self-assurance has been evident in all areas of her academic and social life. Math, which once felt like a constant struggle, has become much easier for her. She now handles math facts with greater ease and working through her math homework no longer causes the same frustration.

Stephanie (Savage, MN)

After he completed the program the first year, his reading significantly improved along with his word attack. He loves to read and this really helped his confidence. I would highly recommend this program for anyone struggling with reading comprehension and math skills, especially if you tried traditional tutoring. This is not a tutoring program, it is building a foundation on how to process skills in order to perform well in all areas of life including school. If you are like us that tried everything and nothing has worked, I would recommend giving LearningRx/Doug Mapp a call and let him help!

Brian (Knoxville, TN)

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)

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 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.

Sonia (Glendale, AZ)

Although I’m an adult, I greatly benefit from my training at LearningRx! After 6 months of training 3 days a week, I’m noticing I’m starting to calculate numbers in my head, which is huge since I was diagnosed with dyscalculia in my early 20’s! I’m even finding myself visualizing my next turn when driving, something I could never do before my training! LearningRx is helpful for all ages! I only wish I found them sooner!

Miranda (Reston, VA)

My daughter’s confidence level in math skills and reading has increased since training at Learning Rx and has in turn boosted her self-esteem significantly as well. The entire Learning Rx team is friendly, supportive, and equipped with the skills training to help realize significant improvements for you and your family too.

Katherine (Reston, 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)

The staff was the best. They were always helpful, caring and engaging. We have seen sustained focus during homework and better memory to assist with multi step math problems.

James (Reston, VA)

Our daughter started high school with little to no academic confidence. Day 1 she felt defeated, lost and unhappy. My husband and I made the right decision when we signed her up for LearningRx! We quickly figured out what was lacking in her learning environment; and we transferred her to a new school. She diligently worked 3 sessions a week with her LearningRx coach all while making time to catch up on new curriculum. To our amazement, her auditory processing accelerated; she picked up a new book to read on her own and often shared with us about her day!

Aimée (San Antonio NE, TX)

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)

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 has been amazing for my daughter! We’ve seen huge improvements in her cognitive skills, memory, comprehension, reading, math, and most importantly—her confidence. Working with Jacci has been such a blessing. The results speak for themselves—my daughter’s confidence and grades last semester improved dramatically.

Matthew G. (Appleton, WI)

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)

Our daughter always walked out after her session with a big smile, feeling more confident. Her short and long-term memory have improved, noticeable in her daily school and home routines. Her number sense has improved dramatically. Proof of this has been her ability to understand and work with factors, fractions, and the coordinate system, which I thought would be an extremely difficult task to accomplish.

Elvira (Tysons, VA)

Wyatt has gained confidence in both his reading and math skills!

Emily (Rogers, MN)

My daughter trains there and we have seen the amount of time it takes her to do schoolwork lessen significantly. She also has a better time understanding math concepts.

Keri (Colorado Springs, CO)

Highly recommend LearningRx! As someone who was in college struggling with college algebra, LearningRx really helped me out with learning it in a simpler way than any teacher could’ve done.

Spencer (Shreveport, LA)

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)

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)

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)

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)

Learning RX was a great way to bring some excitement out in our daughter when it comes to learning! She really improved in so much and has sooo much more confidence in herself, her ability to problem solve and her overall attitude about math and school work. She had the most incredible trainer Caitlin…Imani is so easy to communicate with, listens and engages with the students and parents so well. Marilyn was always very welcoming and we appreciated her a ton!

Annie (Colorado Springs, CO)

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)

Math greatly improved. All your programs are really comprehensive. Your results and improvements are measurable. Super friendly and warm atmosphere, not coldly academic–it was a place our child wants to come to.

Angel (Eden Prairie, MN)

You or your child may or may not achieve the same results as past LearningRx clients. But give us a call. We’d love to work with you, too!
