Brain Training or Tutoring for Studying Skills?

Hiring a tutor is one of the most popular ways to help students study. But it’s not always the most effective option.

While tutoring can be highly effective for some students, others have just as much trouble studying with a tutor’s help. Often, these students need to strengthen core brain skills to make studying easier. That’s where brain training can help!

While tutoring focuses on what students learn, brain training focuses on how students learn. Instead of simply repeating what kids already heard in class, brain training gives them the skills and strategies they need to process, understand, and retain this information.

Hear from our Students and Families

I see her confidence level through the roof. She speaks about herself in a more positive light. She is catching onto new material quicker and does not get distracted as easily.

Erin (Appleton, WI)

The staff here is AMAZING. They are professional, experts in their field, & care about their students. Our child has greatly disliked reading & struggles meeting school standards. After starting LearningRx she has begun reading a chapter book for her free time & has fallen in love with reading! This is a huge win for her! Her confidence is high and she finally sees herself as a scholar.

Maranda (Shreveport, LA)

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)

LearningRx was such a blessing for our family and especially for our little boy. He originally went for an updated evaluation for school and then after meeting with the owner Michelle, we learned about their Lift Off program. Our trainer Mrs. Aimee and all the staff became like family to us. The joy every trainer has for their job is evident. This is amazing place! His confidence has soared as a learner and to us, nothing can replace that.

Amy (Chattanooga, TN)

Lisa and the trainers here never gave up on my son even though he was difficult to work with. He is now doing much better in school when he puts forth effort. He is willing to try new things. My son is making better grades; he is doing well at school when he chooses to do his assignments. He is trying new things and doesn’t shut down as easily.

Kelly (Huntsville, TX)

LearningRx gave our son a great boost in confidence! The staff is extremely dedicated & caring about the success if their students!

M Miller (Colorado Springs, CO)

I highly recommend this program for any child facing academic challenges. The staff was highly professional and accommodating, working around our schedule to provide the most convenient time slots. Their genuine concern and dedication to student success were evident throughout. They truly care about their students’ progress and well-being.

Tisha (Shreveport, LA)

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)

I’ve seen huge improvements because of the program and the investment of time I put in. The long-term benefits are well worth it! Mike did a fantastic job communicating and sharing in the progress made.

Matt (Fort Collins, CO)

Irene’s support and leadership has been crucial in the progress and success of clients. She has been very responsive of and receptive to parents’ feedback and suggestions and strives to include them in the planning of goals and objectives for purpose of trainings!

Hibroly (Reston, VA)

Great experience, friendly and competent staff. Afforded a new method of learning and assisted our child with developing tactics to improve memory and comprehension.

Justin & Courtney (Anoka, MN)

I only did an adult brain booster, and I was starting to see improvements in my memory and speed. I hope to do more hours in the future.

Regis (Alpharetta, GA)

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)

We stumbled upon LearningRx, thinking it was worth a shot— after graduating under a year later, we can confidently say it helped our child make better connections and improved her working memory. The staff and director are like family to us; they nurtured and encouraged our daughter more than just academically; they absolutely instilled confidence and kept her motivated throughout her training. Highly, highly recommend for kids and adults with memory problems, ADHD, problems with executive function and disorganization, or just needing a boost in productivity and efficiency.

KD (Franklin, TN)

We’ve noticed an increase in confidence in himself. He seems to trust his abilities more than he used to. He is able to listen to directions better and seems more able to hear them. He is more excited about school and learning. LearningRx has been a great experience for him!

Alyson (Savage, MN)

I was one overwhelmed parent after being told my daughter was suspected as having dyslexia by her school, which followed up with “we won’t be able to get her where she needs to be in reading”, essentially. I had seen the LearningRx sign before, so that was my first call. I had a lot of questions! The front desk (Jordan) was so very helpful at giving me as much information as she could before meeting us. We have now finished our brain training plan and are so happy with the results!

CH (Chattanooga, TN)

Our son made amazing gains over the course of his time at LearningRx. In comparison to medication and other things we have tried, we have seen the most significant change from the LearningRx program. His memory has improved. He used to not be able to remember anything that occurred in his classes at school and now he can remember most of the key points and has even begun taking a few notes.

Jana (NWA South, AR)

We love LearningRx, everyone was so wonderful and nice and helped my son so much to achieve greater goals for his future and now. John did an awesome job with my son. He was so wonderful and help motivate him and boost his confidence 100% and now he is doing so much better at reading.

Dezaray (Louisville-Springhurst, KY)

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)

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)

My quality of life after. Better brain function,

Julie (Glendale, AZ)

They truly know how to make kids feel at ease, turning what could be a stressful experience into an exciting and enjoyable one. I believe every parent should take the opportunity to assess their child’s learning abilities. Understanding where they are academically and cognitively is so important for effective learning and growth. LearningRx in Shreveport is a game-changer. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to give their child a solid foundation for success!

TND (Shreveport, LA)

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)

From our first conversations with LearningRx staff, the assessment process, starting our training schedule to now where we have established a routine, we have felt well informed and cared for by the staff. We receive frequent progress check ins and can observe training sessions anytime we like. The LearningRx staff do a great job with the range of diverse learners and seem to find ways to keep them all engaged. We would definitely recommend the Shoreview location to any family who does not know where to turn next to support their child’s educational roadblocks.

Anna (Shoreview, MN)

At home, he would remember what needed to be done after only being asked once, a substantial change from before. Overall, he seems less stressed, overwhelmed, and much more academically confident.

Cara (Chandler, AZ)

I now have so much more focus in my day-to-day tasks and can make decisions 1 million times easier instead of spinning my wheels and not getting anything done. I did not expect at this stage in life with almost adult children that I could effectively retrain my brain. Two of our children also did the program and had positive results as well. If you were looking to invest in yourself and or your children, I highly recommend LearningRx.

Colleen (Fort Collins, CO)

Cindy is always upbeat and positive. She is passionate about her job and desire to impact the life of her student. I’m so thankful for her encouraging attitude of always finding the one thing (sometimes more than one) that the student has improved in no matter how big or small.

Deborah (Milwaukee-Brookfield, WI)

His ability to listen and follow through the first time has improved. He doesn’t need to study as long for tests and quizzes. His focus is better. His reading and comprehension have improved.

Julie (Chattanooga, TN)

Our daughter was really struggling and we were concerned that she may not move to the next grade in school. Not only has LearningRx given her the mental exercises to improve, but it has given her the tools that she can utilize in learning at home and at school that will allow her to be successful in her future. She has moved from a place of defeat and sometimes despair to one of being hopeful and having plans for her future. She has learned that she can do hard things.

Justin (Raleigh, NC)

Making the decision to enroll my son in the program was the best choice I could have made. Since completing it, he has become more confident, focused, and engaged. He is also showing greater independence. I can’t thank LearningRx enough for reigniting my son’s passion for learning!

Deidre (Tysons, 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)

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)

Very impressed with the rapid improvement in focus and motivation after just a month of sessions.

Cindy (Eagan, MN)

We’ve seen improvements in our child and more importantly he has seen and recognizes improvements in himself. Increased memory, focus, processing, confidence, commitment.

Paul (Chandler, AZ)

From day 1 to the last day training, Trenton’s ability to comprehend and retain any material that’s presented to him has greatly improved and has translated into better grades on his report card. Not only has his comprehension and retention improved, but his confidence has also improved because of LearningRx. It has been great experience with LearningRx, and we would recommend this program to any parent whose child needs that extra helping hand.

Alanna (Stonewall, LA)

My daughter has more fluency and confidence now when she reads, but most of all, she is reading! She totes several books in her bookbag to and from school to read during down-time at school and at home. Reading is no longer seen as a chore and there is no longer the same struggle we had before starting this program.

Aaron (Staunton-Harrisonburg VA)

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)

I have seen improved confidence, attitude, attention, and academic ability in reading and math.

Jill (Fort Collins, CO)

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)

It felt like everyone working there really cared and wanted to see me grow!

Noah (Savage, MN)

My daughter has been coming for two months, and her grades have improved significantly. She really enjoys coming here.

Juan (Edina, MN)

The results were all I hoped for and more. I came in looking for some change, but I watched my child completely transform because of this program. This will forever change the course of her education.

Emily (Franklin, TN)

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

Tracey & Josh (Indianapolis NE, IN)

My daughter had an exceptional experience with LearningRx. Both my daughter’s teachers and we, her parents, observed a remarkable enhancement in her processing speed and memory. The struggle she previously encountered with retaining information swiftly has now become a thing of the past, a stark contrast from what we witnessed during her first-grade year.

Shayda (Atlanta-Buckhead, GA)

Highly recommended. Found a solution for my child who was struggling in school.

Madison (Houston Central TX)

I see positive changes in my child’s personally and school wise. My child’s spelling has improved as well as verbal communication.

Sarah (Fairfax, 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)

Our daughter’s confidence has grown through the roof! The entire staff was genuine and dedicated to helping achieve our goals. The results were amazing. Our trainer was dedicated and connected very well with our daughter. He was a fantastic motivator.

Kendra (Raleigh, NC)

LearningRx is the only effective tutoring method, and both my kids have made huge improvements. I have noticed a big change in my son’s reading; he is on an IEP and wasn’t making much progress, even though the district is taking credit and saying he is making progress with his current IEP, he lacked intervention from the district. I still believed that without outside support, he would not make any improvement.

Halimo (Minnetonka, MN)

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)

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!
