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!

I had a consultation with LearningRx to assess my memory and logical thinking. The system that LearningRx uses to assess and strengthen your weaknesses is very innovative and I felt like it gave me great insights on how I can improve.

Sam (Houston Central, TX)

Excellent! My daughter has grown in her confidence, proficiency, and overall knowledge! She completes school assignments quickly and accurately. She has benefited greatly from the professionals at LearningRx! We could not be more pleased!

Lori (Louisville-Springhurst, KY)

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)

Personalized approach to meet individual child’s needs. Great results with program. Director, Molly, was a big advocate for us when dealing with the school system and getting him resources he needed. More confident, less resistant to homework, willingness to try new things. Overall better attitude towards learning.

Jennifer (Louisville-Springhurst, KY)

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)

My child went from being nonverbal to being a little girl who is communicating AND reading! Naomi was a little girl who would cry instead of telling me what was wrong. She had been learning her alphabet but could not recognize a single letter in the alphabet. After training, Naomi now has conversations with others, and she is excelling in school. We love LearningRx!

Mandy (Huntsville, TX)

My daughter was in a heart-wrenching fog of child development when we sought LearningRx for support. With their ability to forge a nurturing and highly positive relationship with my daughter, LearningRx truly planted the seed of ‘learning to learn’, and that learning is both ‘important’ AND ‘fun’. My daughter is now thriving in kindergarten.

Eric (Louisville-Springhurst, KY)

Mike’s presentation and workshop were captivating with his energy and stories of success. The LearningRx program would be a great fit for anyone, regardless of whether it’s “needed” or not – sharper thinking would be welcomed by any and all I think!

Bre (Fort Collins, 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)

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)

Our son was struggling with reading comprehension, and this was affecting many subjects as he entered middle school. He would study for tests and work on homework for hours at night. The grades he received did not reflect the work he was putting in which led to much frustration. Tutoring and extra help at school did not seem to help. Once we met with Tiffany and she explained the LearningRx model and how it was different from tutoring, we felt it was exactly what our son needed. And wow…did we see fast results.

Valerie (Franklin, TN)

I am so glad that we found LearningRx as it has been a great experience for all of us. It really opened our eyes to the power of the mind and how it can adapt to anything. If one works on the deficiencies that they have, those deficiencies will soon become issues of the past and may even become strengths as they work their way through the LearningRx curriculum.

Jason (Shreveport, LA)

My son started at LearningRx struggling with letter recognition and letter sounds. After just 30 sessions, he is reading and testing above average for his age and grade. The trainers genuinely care, and Gina really helped us understand where our son was struggling, and where improvement was needed. Seeing our son build his confidence and now thriving academically has been such a blessing. 100% recommend LearningRx.

Jennifer (San Antonio NE, TX)

LearningRx was our saving grace. I searched high and low for services like this and finally found them. My son was struggling so bad in school and was so far behind his peers. He not only lacked the educational ability, but he lacked confidence. For the last year and a half, he went here and they built his confidence beyond what I could ever imagine. After suffering an acquired brain injury, I never thought I’d hear my son read. But thanks to the wonderful staff at LearningRx he is now reading and excited to learn.

Stacey Louisville-Springhurst, KY)

LearningRx has unquestionably changed my life for the better. I discovered that you have to believe in yourself and keep pushing forward, even when it’s tough. Another outstanding aspect of LearningRx was the great sense of community. My trainers were always patient with me, even on my bad days. They constantly encouraged me to give 100% effort, and I did—because I genuinely wanted to improve the way my brain and memory works.

Bailey (Woodbury, MN)

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)

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)

The results with my son have exceeded all expectations!!! Kevin and Jill are the most dedicated, caring and encouraging team my son has ever worked with. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

Holly (Milwaukee-Brookfield, WI)

The entire LearningRx team and program made a tremendous impact on our daughter’s reading and processing speed. We loved working with all of the trainers and especially appreciated Ms. Gina’s dedication and care for our daughter’s growth and progress. The program is a significant commitment and investment, and it’s totally worth it. Thank you, LearningRx!!!

Nicole (Minnetonka, MN)

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

Madison (Houston Central TX)

Because it’s a wonderful place to learn with the friendly staff. I was the oldest in the class at a fine age of 66! Your brain is so amazing, and it needs to be exercised and strengthened. I would recommend the LearningRx center.

Patricia (Woodbury, MN)

Increased confidence, social skills and emotional regulation. Increase ability to sound out words and reading comprehension.

Alexa (Minnetonka, MN)

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)

Very thankful for LearningRx and the help it has provided our child. Seeing her gain confidence and ability is priceless. Michelle, Jennifer, Jordan, and the rest of the team are the best of the best. Your kindness and professionalism are simply the cherry on top

Kellen (Chattanooga, TN)

We came in looking for additional help, especially in reading, for our son who is so bright but was struggling with his schoolwork. The assessment affirmed what we thought as far as some cognitive skills which needed strengthening. I homeschool so I’ve been able to give him tons of one-on-one tutoring, but the improvement has been so slow. We are so excited about his progress and believe we have found just the right tool to make the bridges in his mind and give him the help he needs. Very thankful to have found this place!

Mindy (Savage, MN)

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)

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)

Greater ability to pay attention, work through hard things, speed in processing thoughts.

Mary (Eden Prairie, MN)

Before coming to LearningRx, I was on medication for ADD and was having a difficult time concentrating and staying focused on tasks. Just a couple weeks after starting my training, I stopped taking my medication and saw improvements in my daily activities. I am able now to focus on finishing a task once its started. I can remember things much better now as well such as things I need to do or grocery lists. The most significant improvement I have seen is in my attention.

Amanda (Vivian, LA)

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)

Bonnie literally went from barely reading, total meltdown when she was asked to read to now reading above grade level and picking up books for fun even. Training has also improved her attention and focus more than we thought possible. We have even been able to taper off her ADHD meds. Total transformation!

Skip (Chattanooga, TN)

I loved this place because the people that teach it create a fun environment, the games that are incorporated are really fun to play while also learning a lot through them too!

Lukas (Woodbury, MN)

Before we started the program, my son was struggling to read. I had run out of resources to help him and he was feeling so poorly about himself and doubted his ability. He not only reads fluently but understands his reading skills and his confidence has improved greatly!

Emily (Pensacola, FL)

LearningRX was an enlightening experience for my children. Highly recommend the Eagan location. We worked with Josh, Jacob, and Lily who were fabulous!

Nadyia (Eagan, MN)

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 really appreciate the tools and techniques LearningRx provided for Montel to continue to identify, analyze, process information presented before him. The hesitation and unsureness are replaced with confidence and self-assurance in his abilities working a problem.

Glen (San Antonio, NE, TX)

The program was an excellent experience for Kai. He made a lot of progress in spite of his resistance at times. We are seeing his improvements in his schoolwork, less Cs and more As and Bs. His piano teacher can see the changes in his focus and progress with learning his material.
Kai would not be as far along without this program. They worked hard to meet him where he was and knew when to push him to achieve better results.

Pravin (Reston, VA)

Our son made some incredible improvements in the areas he was lacking before brain training. He looked forward to going and made noticeable jumps in reading and became more confident in other school subjects. Our child has improved his reading level in school and has been more willing to try hard things. We have been quite impressed with the changes we’ve seen in him.

Shallan (River Valley, AR)

We are so grateful for LearningRx! Tiffany and her team are so wonderful. Not only did we see incredible results in our son’s focus and his ability to work through challenging subjects, but the sense of community and the boost in his self-confidence that came from LearningRx were truly life changing.

Morgan (Franklin, TN)

We have seen incredible improvements in both our kids with focus and attentiveness

Shannon (Chanhassen, MN)

It helped my child to grow in confidence and life skills. My child has more confidence, attention and focus.

Cindy (Staunton-Harrisonburg, VA)

Life-changing for my son and my family. He can verbalize his thoughts and understand what we are saying. Logan understands concepts at school and works hard to complete tasks.

Lindsey (Appleton, WI)

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)

David has done an amazing job helping me with tutoring for ministry college classes, thank you so much David. It’s made all the difference!

Abby (Louisville-Springhurst, KY)

We could not recommend this program enough. They worked with us virtually as we were out of state. We wouldn’t have been able to do it if they didn’t have that flexibility. It requires a lot of work on the participants’ part, but we have seen our son grow leaps and bounds in his ability to read and enjoyment of it. It’s worth the investment

Colleen (Shoreview, MN)

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)

Zach used to say all of his friends were much smarter than him and he does not say that anymore. He seems much more confident in his ability to tackle his academic schedule.

Angela (Excelsior, MN)

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

Craig & Sarah (Indianapolis NE, IN)

You connected with Carsyn on different level, she learned so much with you and we will be recommending our friends to come here to you!

Clayton (Atlanta-Buckhead, GA)

My child is happy to sit and read a book and can work through the words much more fluently than he did before LearningRx. He is finally at or a little above grade level. He is willing to try new things and tends to be less frustrated when he gets stuck (improved resiliency) and is willing to work it out to solve the problem.

Christie (Irvine, CA)

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