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!

Hear from our Students and Families

We were incredibly happy with the results after the completion of his training. Jeri and Kai were very attentive to our son’s development and continually kept us updated on his progress.

Sarah (Richmond Hill, ON)

We are over a 1/4 of the way through the Read Rx program and I am so very pleased with the progress my daughter has made. Her trainers, Carolyn H. and Kim W. are excellent. Rejoice in her victories and help her with her struggles. Thank you for an excellent program!

Michelle (Cary, NC)

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

Ms Rudd (Texarkana, TX)

Improvements in ability and willingness to work by himself. More fluid reading. More confidence in schoolwork.

Melissa (Glendale, AZ)

I am a 56-year-old retired Executive who was diagnosed 2 years ago with aphasia and a rare dementia. I was determined to fight my diseases. I researched for someone to help me exercise my progressing dying communication part of my brain, not to make it better, but to slow down my regression. I have worked with the Director’s and the amazing trainer for a year now, following the LearningRx program and the Booster Program. After the year of pushing my brain, I now have other strategies now and the future, i.e. memory.

Amanda (Richmond Hill, ON)

This is a wonderful program with excellent trainers who are knowledgeable and supportive in helping each child reach his/her goals. Our daughter has improved in all areas of comprehension, retention and overall self-confidence as a result of completing this program.

Ayana (Chattanooga East, TN)

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)

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)

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)

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)

LearningRx was one of the best decisions we made this year! Our grandson was struggling in his high school senior year and this team turned him around :). Plus he enjoyed all of his sessions and his interactions with everyone there. His improvement in every area was incredible. Thank you!

ML (Shreveport, LA)

Leah’s trainer was amazing. She was very patient with Leah. Even when Leah would get distracted or discouraged Ana would be able to talk to Leah and encourage her. Leah has come a long way and it all thanks to everyone at Learning RX. Leah’s confidence in herself and in what she has learned has increased significantly! She is now eager to learn new things and read. She has come so far and I am excited to see all she can achieve now.

Danielle (Charlottesville, VA)

I saw a tremendous increase in my daughter’s confidence! She was always there to help, offer additional resources and even do some trainings. She was a huge advocate for my daughter!

Courtney (Highlands Ranch, CO)

I can comprehend what I read better, and my writing skills have generally improved (whether it is more reflective or academic writing). I have also noticed improvements in my overall memory. The activities completed each session were very helpful in my improvement.

Aditi (Louisville-Springhurst, KY)

As homeschoolers, we were stuck in several areas of her studies and couldn’t figure out what was missing. After putting her through the program, not only did her problem-solving skills improve, but there was also peace in teaching her again because things were connecting that never had before! Now a freshman in college, our daughter is thriving and experiencing academic achievements she never would have had we not understood and addressed her obstacles with the help of LearningRx.

Lisa (Shreveport, LA)

He was getting distracted really easily by other students and noises in the classroom and it hindered his ability to stay on task. I was nervous about the thought of him beginning to drive with how easily distracted he can get but after this program I have seen a huge difference in him. If your child is struggling to pay attention in a distracting school environment, feeling like they’re stupid, or not enjoying school because they’re having trouble completing tasks then this program is for them. Give yourself or your child this gift it’s worth it. I highly recommend this program!

Allie (Colorado Springs, CO)

Development of confidence in learning and perseverance. During the process there was always the concern of preserving confidence and self-esteem while learning and meeting new challenges. The staff were always patient, helpful, and kind.

Jessika (Raleigh, NC)

The changes my husband and I have seen in our daughter are so life changing for her. She is ready for kindergarten and ready for the rest of her life. Our daughter has much better impulse control and ability to adapt to a new challenging situation. When she is presented with a new task or learning skill that she finds challenging she does not shut down, during the time of the training she has transformed to be able to accept the challenge and process how she will conquer the challenge.

Katie (Appleton, WI)

Our daughter Addy is spelling better, can stay focused longer, and is much more confident in school.

Courtney (Milwaukee-Brookfield, WI)

So very thankful for Robyn and Lauren. They worked with us every step and stumble. They provided extra support and encouragement when needed. We are thrilled with the changes in our daughter.

Julie N. (Chandler, AZ)

Donesa and her team are phenomenal. The improvement we have seen in both of our children is amazing. Well worth the time and money.

SM (Shreveport, LA)

I love being engaged with my trainer. My family feels I am thinking better and not as easily agitated.

Yvonne (Milwaukee-Brookfield 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)

On the recommendation of a friend, we turned to LearningRx Richmond Hill. Khai and Jeri conducted a thorough assessment and designed a personalized training plan tailored to my daughter’s needs. A special thanks to trainer Prudence, whose expertise and enthusiasm made learning an enjoyable experience for her. The one-on-one training was highly targeted, and we saw noticeable improvements in a short period of time. After more than a year of training, she has now caught up with her peers—exceeding our expectations!

Jasmine (Richmond Hill, ON)

Eventually, I started to enjoy coming in and started to see improvements myself. Throughout the program, I felt like my spelling got better and many other things. Most of the trainers were very nice. Although training was 1.5 hours long, it felt like it flew by because not only are the drills effective, but they are also fun and challenging. I’m very thankful for your time and help continuing my growth.

Aidan (San Antonio NE, TX)

My child had a positive experience and she was able to reach her goals. The wonderful team provided great support throughout session.

Lavanya (Richmond Hill, ON)

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)

We had Carolyn for my child’s trainer. Can’t say enough good things about this lady. Always encouraging and supportive. Never made training seem like a chore. Kept my child engaged and eager to keep coming back for more! Highly recommend LearningRx and Ms. Carolyn!

Dee (Cary, NC)

This program has been incredible for both our daughters. Both have completed the program, and both have excelled in school and college entrance exams as a result of the efficacy of the program and the incredible skill of our trainer Tara as part of the program. As a Clinical Psychologist, I have seen many programs throughout the years to improve grades, learning methods, etc. I have never seen a program that generates such clear and demonstrated results as in this program. Thank you for creating such a fantastic program for our children and all children who take this course of study!

C.F. (Alpharetta, GA)

Dr. Ana is very kind, patient and easy to work with. She will help your child learn and thrive academically. LearningRx tells you why your child is not learning and helps improve his cognitive skills, so you don’t keep wasting your money on tutoring when s/he’s not yet ready.

DM (Cary, NC)

The training really helped me and prepared me for college. I had a lot going on and she was able to work around my schedule and help me get through my course before I left for college. I am excited to start college and see how much this helped me improve in the classroom.

Emily (Atlanta-Buckhead, GA)

Great people and thoughtful approaches to helping students build academic competencies.

Jonathan (Dublin, OH)

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)

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)

The trainers were excellent and helped Lucas improve so much in processing speed and logic. LearningRx has helped our son so much in improving his processing speed, focus and memory.

Jainy (Sugar Land, TX)

My went through the program and it helped him a great deal at school and many other aspects of his life.

Elizabeth (Eagan, MN)

I blamed ADHD for a lot of my problems and I came to LearningRX to help my ADHD so I could enact the changes I wanted to see. Mike paired me with a great trainer. Landon and I worked excellently together and were a great fit. Landon was professional, on task, focused, and flexible.

Dylan (Fort Collins, Colorado)

My son has demonstrated an easy understanding in processing information so he can now resolve problems (homework) with ease and confidence.

Giselle (Chandler, AZ)

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)

LearningRx has been such a game changer for our 9-year-old. We are so thankful for them!

Chris (Chattanooga, TN)

The performance of the directors was incredibly supportive and very family oriented. Working with both of them to support our child was a privilege and honour. We have noticed that our child is more confident, has an easier time with approaching challenges and is less anxious. Being apart of the LearningRx family has helped her cognitive, social and logical aptitudes.

Jeff (Richmond Hill, ON)

I worked remotely with Kim! She is amazing! This program helped me regain working memory skills, processing speed, & more after a traumatic brain injury! I HIGHLY recommend!!!

Emily (Chattanooga East, TN)

My son participated in a shortened version of training (out of the kindness of Gina’s heart) and my son tested with phenomenal results of improvements in every area. Absolutely amazing!

Sarah (San Antonio, NE, TX)

We have had a wonderful experience here. There were measurable improvements, but more than that our son grew in confidence in his abilities.

Lauren (Indianapolis NE, IN)

The improvement that was shown from the start has been absolutely unbelievable! His confidence and fluency in reading that he has shown since the beginning has been outstanding and we are so impressed with everything!

Lauren (Pensacola, FL)

His growth has extended beyond academics. His youth director even commented on his improved focus and ability to take detailed notes during lessons. He now contributes thoughtfully in group discussions and isn’t afraid to raise his hand and share insights.

Jessica (Charlottesville, VA)

This is a very good program, and I have learned a lot and I would recommend this to anyone.

Charlie (Eagan, MN)

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 daughter recently completed their program and we couldn’t be happier with the results! She was struggling so badly despite being medicated for her ADHD. We tested and started the program in the early November and noticed results as soon as she was back in school. Her improvements continued as her standardized testing scores went up and most importantly her confidence and believing she could accomplish things on her own! Would do the program again in a heartbeat, the financial and time commitments are a small price to pay for something that can help my child for the rest of their life!

Jennifer (Chattanooga East, TN)

Very Impressed with the program, it has helped my son tremendously Better focus, attentive and better mood

April (Chattanooga East, TN)

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