Brain trainer and student working together on a cognitive training task

Training for Kids & Teens with Learning Disabilities

At LearningRx, we know that learning difficulties are closely tied to cognitive skills. Through brain training, we have helped students of all ages strengthen these skills and address the root cause of learning struggles. In addition to brain training for clients with ADHD, dyslexia, speech delays, and autism, we offer individualized programs for clients with other learning challenges.

LearningRx offers both in-person and online programs, making brain training easily accessible to learners.

My daughter had a known learning disability and had been on an IEP for years with the school. She simply did not understand the work and also could not remember the lessons. This made everything click for her.”

Personalized Training for Children with Learning Disabilities

LearningRx creates individualized programs for kids and adults with learning disorders and other learning differences.

We start by performing an assessment, which measures the performance of core learning skills. This gives you a detailed picture of learning skills for you or your child, and it can identify which skills are the root cause of learning difficulties.

By identifying which skills have the most room for improvement, we can target these skills in a personalized learning plan!

Brain Training or Tutoring for Learning Disabilities?

There’s an important distinction between brain training and tutoring.

Tutoring tends to focus on delivering information and accommodating each student. In many cases, tutors will find workarounds or accommodations for learning difficulties. This puts students in a position where they can only succeed with accommodations.

Brain training is focused on the root cause of learning difficulties. Our goal is to strengthen underlying learning and thinking skills. When students develop these skills, they can become more confident, more independent, and more successful learners!

Before you get started with brain training, we want to learn more about the challenges experienced by you or your child.

Hear from our Students and Families

I am so thankful for Kathi and LearningRx! I was able to get my mom’s memory assessed and it was better than we hoped. We also have a great 12-week plan and long-term strategy to keep her as sharp as possible. My mom is so happy! Kathi’s knowledge, experience and patience was fantastic! Now I am getting my daughter in to see her as soon as possible before she heads to college!

Patti (Highland Ranch, 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)

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

Noah (Savage, MN)

We are so thrilled to have found LearningRX. Halfway through our brain training program, the results have been noticed by my child’s teacher already. They helped me understand the areas that they were weaker and targeted them for improvement in a fun and challenging environment.

Kristin (Tysons, VA)

My daughter is a senior in high school and has struggled in school all her life. She has had tutors on and off for over 10 years. Her biggest struggles were with her processing both visual and auditory, memorizing math facts and problem solving to name a few. They were very understanding and flexible with her training sessions because she is a very busy student. They met three days a week online for about six months and now after those six months, she has improved in every area and is doing better in school and has much more confidence in herself. She now has a good foundation to be successful in life.

Sara (Woodbury, MN)

The program had a profoundly positive impact on my children—I can clearly see the difference it made. After witnessing my oldest son’s remarkable growth, I knew I had to enroll my daughter as well. My only regret is not having done it sooner.

Katya (Savage, MN)

I have loved being enrolled in LearningRx! My daughter has grown leaps and bounds in many different abilities. I am so thankful for our time here and will recommend any family to participate!

Katie (Chattanooga East, TN)

His willingness to dive into things he doesn’t know or understand has went from zero to 100! Without the confidence to do this, learning and development were nearly impossible. He has significantly increased his endurance for learning as well. We can’t wait to see how he continues to grow!

Jill (Indianapolis NE, IN)

Our son LOVES going to LRX. He said learning has become easier. We are so glad for him and proud of how hard he works although LRX makes it so fun!

Melynda (Chattanooga, TN)

Our experience with Learning Rx was very valuable. Gabriella helped my child so much during their time together. She worked really hard to make our goals happen. So many great strides were made in the areas of struggle.

Charity Cleary (Cary, NC)

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)

The positive changes we have seen in our daughter showed us how valuable and effective the program is! Our daughter has improved in memory and working speed, and her reading skills have improved to a level that her teachers are bringing it up to us. Her self-confidence is willingness to learn new tasks has also improved greatly.

Brittany (River Valley, AR)

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)

We are very happy with the progress our daughter has achieved while at Learning RX and we were very impressed by the quality of our teachers!

Christy (Raleigh, NC)

We have seen great improvement in our child with the methods used by LearningRx in not just academic but also everyday life skills and behavior. It is given us an insight into how her brain works. We are grateful.

Sarah (Plymouth, MN)

Micah’s ability to learn without ‘freezing’ is the biggest improvement. Micah’s abilities to spell, write, read, follow instruction have all drastically improved. Micah’s confidence has improved. His excitement of learning has skyrocketed.

Marilyn (Chandler, AZ)

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’ve had an incredible experience with LearningRx in Peoria! My nephew has made huge progress, and one of the most noticeable changes has been how much less time he now spends on homework. What used to take hours is now done in a fraction of the time—and with far less frustration. Lara was especially wonderful to work with—she made the whole process smooth and supportive from day one. We’re so grateful for the care and attention he received. Highly recommend!

Kimberly (Glendale, AZ)

We are so happy with our daughters’ results, truly life changing for her!

Ayla (Huntsville, TX)

Caleb worked really well with our son. He was very encouraging throughout all aspects of the training. He made our son feel like he can achieve anything and that it is ok to make a mistake. He was patient and kind and also helped during those difficult days at school.

Stephanie (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)

For two or three years I knew something wasn’t right. The school kept telling me that he was at grade level and that it was okay. But it wasn’t okay, because he would avoid reading. We came [to LearningRx] in September and thy confirmed he had an auditory processing problem. It feels like the pressure is off my shoulders.

L. Jakeman (Shreveport, LA)

Our son has increased his attention for a longer period of time in the classroom and is a more active participant during classroom discussions. Our son shows more willingness to read at home. He enjoyed coming to the session, working with his trainer and feeling comfortable in the learning environment. The directors and trainer were supportive of his learning.

Marie (Richmond Hill, ON)

We are so thankful for LearningRx. It has been amazing watching him grow in confidence and independence with reading. He has been keeping up better in school and has much more confidence. The trainers are amazing and dedicated. My child says he will miss the people. He also says reading is fun now. We would do it all over again!

Jillian (Monticello, MN)

My child has grown tremendously in her reading skills resulting in not only better academic performance but also decreased frustration. Most of all my child enjoys reading now when it used to be a fight to even try to get through basic sight words.

Gretchen (Louisville-Springhurst, KY)

I already have recommended this program to everyone in earshot. My ability to engage my focus and actively switch between tasks is better than ever before. It is incredible how differently my brain is operating now.

William (Reston, VA)

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)

Miss Kathy was very helpful and understanding. She had great patients while working with Amelia.

Craig & Sarah (Indianapolis NE, IN)

Baird and the LearningRx team have been very personable, knowledgeable, and professional as we learned more about their program. We are a homeschool family and hope the training here can strengthen our upper elementary child’s cognitive skills. Our first step was vision therapy … and now hope LearningRx will provide more additional support and believe through hard work our child will improve. Thus far, we are very satisfied with everything LearningRx has done!

Tim (Bloomington, MN)

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

Hugo (Shreveport, LA)

Our experience in LearningRx has been the best decision we ever made. The trainers are the best and the passion they put into it made a difference in my child’s life. We have seen so much improvement on our son that from day one we knew we were at the right place to starting to read and now able to even read and text back to people when before he was using voice command. He grew self-esteem and more.

Cyndy (Sugar Land, TX)

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)

My boys are about 3 months into their training and they are both starting to notice improvements. They both notice that it is easier to read and focus/understand what they are reading. One of my boys plays sports and he has even noticed a difference while playing. He has noticed he is able to focus on multiple aspects of the game which is something he has always struggled with. I’m excited to see the differences they notice when they go back to school.

Kelli (Chattanooga East, TN)

From the moment I contacted Maureen to the last day, communication was clear, prompt, and professional. Our concerns about Omar were addressed, and a clear plan of action was given to us. A huge bonus was that Omar actually looked forward to going to see his teacher Tully and later Katie. On several occasions, I’ve heard Omar telling his friends how LearningRx is the best kind of tutoring he’s had because it’s “actually fun.”

Sarah (Tysons, VA)

We are so thrilled with our sons results. He had a blast and now his focus and attention is so much better. Thank you

Meredith (Irvine, CA)

We started learningRX during the beginning of the pandemic and it really helped my son stay focused during a time of chaos. My son really connects with his instructor, Austin. I highly recommend him if you have a little boy with lots of energy. Austin always makes the sessions fun!

Camille (Atlanta-Buckhead, GA)

My son started Learning RX when he was 18. He knew he wasn’t ready to start college as having dyslexia and other learning challenges made processing large amounts of information very taxing. ..Ashley was incredibly supportive and encouraging. She was able to individualize the program to meet his specific needs. She went above and beyond our expectations!…It has been incredible to see him be able to focus and read for long periods of time and to really thrive.

Karen (Cary, NC)

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)

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)

We have noticed that homework is being done faster and even being started on his own. He has less negative talk and less time lost through behavioral issues at school as a result of not understanding the material. He has confidence for the first time in his life and truly believes he can do things that are hard and trusts himself.

Amanda (Dayton, MN)

Truly life changing opportunity to invest in your kids!

Meghan (Appleton, WI)

LearningRx is a truly amazing program. Once we started with LearningRx after about 3 months into our sessions, she was able to just pick up her books and go without fighting/avoiding her work – especially her vocab, reading, and spelling assignments.

Tiffany (Chandler, AZ)

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

Tina (Sugar Land, TX)

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 schoolwork and grades are improved. His communication at home is also better.

Ms Rudd (Texarkana, TX)

I can think through multiple thoughts easier and make decisions quicker.

Samuel (Irvine, CA)

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)

I highly recommend the Atlanta Buckhead location of LearningRX! My child went through the cognitive training LearningRX program this year. LearningRX gives a pre- and post-test in a number of different areas and, relative to the pre-test, my child’s post-test showed tremendous, quantified improvement in almost every category that was part of the program! My child’s tutor, Christen, was amazing – smart, assertive with giving the right amount of push, adaptive, highly communicative, encouraging and dedicated!

DR (Atlanta-Buckhead, GA)

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)

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

Jill (Fort Collins, CO)

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