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!

Kellen is an amazing trainer he truly cares about you as a student and your growth. It is also a very nice facility that is welcoming with very nice staff that makes you feel welcome.

Andrew (Shoreview, MN)

Working in Education for 18 years, I knew my 9 year old daughter needed something more than a reading tutor. Learning Rx provided an opportunity for her to retrain her brain versus getting academic support. This intensive cognitive reset is worth every minute and is simply invaluable. Her confidence and self esteem in the classroom has improved significantly and her focus and attention while reading is dramatic. The team in Woodbury was responsive, effective, and ensured that my daughter felt loved, inspired, and successful.

Megan (Woodbury, MN)

Tiffany is great throughout the process with checking in and communication. Trainers were easy to get in touch with and coordinate schedules. This is a great group.

John (Franklin, TN)

Ms. Loftus and her entire team were absolutely wonderful to work with! After training with them, my son is now thriving at school, able to focus better, and his confidence levels have skyrocketed!

May (Tysons, VA)

We have seen a tremendous improvement through LearningRx, including increased memory, processing and comprehension. The directors and instructor have been amazing to work with, and it’s been a great experience! Would highly recommend!

Joe (Richmond Hill, ON)

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)

I was a student at LearningRx 4.5 years ago in high school and now work in Atlanta full time. I often look back and thank LearningRX for helping me further develop the skills I needed to continuously grow academically and professionally. Because of their very hands-on approach and true passion for helping their students, I would 100% recommend their programs.

Austin (Atlanta-Buckhead, GA)

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)

Before starting this program, I struggled with auditory processing, which often made communication and focus more challenging. Now, not only has my auditory processing improved dramatically, but my productivity has skyrocketed, my memory is sharper, and my overall cognitive abilities have reached new heights.

Linzy (Highlands Ranch, CO)

My daughter has been a part of this program for over 3 months, and we’ve seen tremendous growth and development since she started. As a result of her training so far, she asserts herself in class more; she accomplished all A’s her first semester; and she won a class award for being a “top thinker”. LearningRx has given her skills to last a lifetime, but more than that, it’s made her a more confident individual who’s eager to learn.

Mandy (Atlanta-Buckhead, GA)

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)

Aselin was having a very tough time in school, specifically with math. We went from constant tears over homework that she did not understand, low grades and not wanting to go to school. To now enjoying going to school, completing homework on her own and getting great grades.

Carter (Staunton-Harrisonburg, VA)

Dargan and Michelle were amazing to work with at LearningRx Charlottesville, walking along side us each step of the way and doing everything they could to make our experience a successful one. Their expertise and compassion was just what my son needed to help get him to the next level of his cognitive development. We’ve tried a lot of other modalities in the past, and I’d highly recommend giving LearningRx a chance!

Erin (Charlottesville, VA)

My memory is stronger, and I feel I can make quick and accurate decisions at work, which is very important to me.

Diosdado (Atlanta-Buckhead, GA)

At home he is now willing to do his homework, where before he would have a tantrum every time. His school grades have made a noticeable improvement. At school his teacher has also noticed large improvements in his classroom behavior. His reading and spelling grades have improved.

Paul (Chandler, AZ)

LearningRx has helped push my 2 very genius girls to the next level by helping us understand how to continue to develop our already advanced children. We know that as parents we have to keep these gifted and talented kids involved otherwise they will become bored. The camps over the summer and breaks when they are offered have been especially fruitful and we are completely satisfied working with Kathi and Doug in Highlands Ranch!

Brian (Highlands Ranch, CO)

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)

They were thorough and our child’s improvement speaks for itself. His confidence in reading in front of his class, his memory and problem-solving skills improved.

Amanda (Raleigh, NC)

I have done Learning RX brain training programs for two of my children. First, my son, who we still continue to see the benefits from. Even though his program was completed more than 3 years ago! Second, my daughter did the lift off program when she was 6 years old. Since I still had my sons’ program materials, we decided I would train my daughter at home. My daughter is making huge improvements! I am once again convinced that I made the right decision investing in this program for my kids.

Tonya (Chattanooga East, TN)

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

Cindy (Staunton-Harrisonburg, VA)

I was very pleased with the service I received from LearningRX. My child was substantially delayed when we entered the program. After 150+ lessons my daughter was able to correct her deficiencies and more importantly the skills she learned will help her in the future. In addition, I must mention professionalism of the entire team through frequent check-in meetings/follow-ups about the progress child is making as well as inquiring about anything additional they can do.

Drazenka K. (Charlottesville, VA)

What stood out the most for me in the program was the staff’s commitment and dedication to student success. I have never seen him so excited to do something related to academics, mostly because his confidence had been broken by test scores that did not reflect his effort. Now, he has the confidence to know he can achieve the results he desires.

Jamila (Atlanta-Buckhead, GA)

It has changed the way we interact with our children. From homeschooling, to discipline, it’s made a difference in how we work together as a family. I highly recommend! Each one of our kids have grown in effective communication and discipline.

Amanda (Pensacola, FL)

LearningRx has been great for improving my son’s focus. The staff is supportive, and the personalized program really works. Highly recommend!

Sherry (Eagan, MN)

We used LearningRx for my middle daughter (6yo) and over the course of the program we saw drastic changes in her behavioral, processing speed and abilities, and overall self-confidence. When we did her evaluation and they were explaining the results, so much made sense. She was already very smart but was lacking in her ability to receive information. Once we started LearningRx all of that changed and the results showed both academically and socially.

Alexa (San Antonio NE, TX)

My child made great progress during the program and all of the staff is welcoming and helpful! We have loved our time here.

Candice (NWA South, AR)

LearningRx has been a God sent blessing to us. They love each child here and breathe life into each student. They love and care, they have become like family. The amount of confidence my child has shown within himself, and his schoolwork makes me so proud of him! This has been by far the BEST experience ever! We are so grateful!

Ariel (Texarkana, TX)

Gaining confidence and seeing the possibilities and benefits of learning even if you struggle.

Gina & Jeff (Fairfax, VA)

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)

We saw measurable results that would benefit others. He connected with Xander and did a great job of motivating and guiding him through the program. Even when Xander had tough times and struggled, he worked with him to keep going.

Tessa (NWA South, AR)

Kenlee was really struggling as a student going into the 2nd grade. She was homeschooled and is going back to public school. She was reading on a kinder level and now, within 6 months, she is on grade level. Her confidence is also great!

Ms Sillivan (Texarkana, TX)

Ashley was absolutely wonderful for my son Jack. She was so patient with him and seemed to know exactly how to encourage him in the moment. I saw my son go from someone who spiraled in his thoughts to be able to think clearly and analyze them in a gentle way. He’s more confident in himself and how he expresses his emotions conversationally and internally. Very happy with the outcome.

Cheryl (Charlottesville, VA)

We are so happy to see the increased focus and confidence in our son.

Heather (Irvine, CA)

After doing so much research and not seeing any hope to help my son, I stumbled across LearningRx. We were skeptical but really put our faith in Gina and the program. Over the past 8 months, my son’s grades have increased, he’s a better student, and his confidence level has increased. We’re so happy with his results and we haven’t seen the post assessment results yet.

LaQuanda (San Antonio, NE, TX)

Our 10-year-old daughter continued having learning problems. After 2 months of LearningRx, she has more confidence in her learning ability, and she is already getting better grades in English! We can’t wait to see all the great things she will accomplish with this program!

Bridget (Minneapolis, MN)

Leanne has been so accommodating and caring towards our family. Ashley is an excellent instructor and made such a strong effort to build a relationship with my daughter. With both professionals caring for my daughter, she has made tremendous growth.

Jennifer (Irvine, CA)

Ethan grew a lot over the 6 months with the program at home and more so in school. Ethan started his 6th grade year at a 4th grade level and ended the year right at 6th grade level. This is a huge jump!

Ms Cox (Texarkana, TX)

We had an excellent experience at LearningRx with our daughter. Really helped her master concepts and curriculum that had been a struggle before. Brad is a top-notch instructor. The program is well designed and so effective. We have the seen benefits of the program carry forward for years. We are very grateful to have gotten this recommendation.

DS (Savage, MN)

Heather (Shreveport, LA)

Great improvement in reading skills, friendly staff. Isla’s reading skills improved drastically because of the LearningRx program. She is more confident, doing better in school and enjoys reading more now. We have already recommended the program to friends.

Jordan (Reston, VA)

I am so thankful for the experience that my son had at LearningRx. I was searching for something to improve my 9-year-old’s focus, attention, memory, reading comprehension skills and LearningRx is the solution. After a rigorous 1:1 mental training program for ten months straight of 2x a week, we have witnessed our son’s significant improvement not only in school and classroom behaviors but also in daily life that he becomes more organized.

Ann (Irvine, CA)

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)

My son used to hate reading and now he willingly does it in his free time. He’s also slowed down and is more able to focus on tasks in front of him.

Reed (Appleton, WI)

LearningRx has not only been a game changer in our daughters schoolwork and grades it has also helped her be self-confident. She does not procrastinate on her work and her grades have improved tremendously. She ended her last semester of school with a 3.9 GPA.

Sara (Milwaukee-Brookfield, WI)

Truly excellent program. Staff was excellent to work with. They kept us informed and were flexible with schedule changes when needed. My child’s progress was tremendous. Grades went up and her attitude towards school became more positive. I definitely recommend LearningRx.

Pj (Colorado Springs, CO)

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)

Thank you LearningRx for helping me significantly improve my focus! Before I started LearningRx my mind always wonders off and I cannot stay on a task, however in the first week of LearningRx I could already see the difference! I want to thank my trainer Ashley for helping me through this journey, she was very helpful, supportive, and always stayed positive even when I’m feeling down. I want to thank all the LearningRx team too for all the support! My grades are currently doing better than I ever imagined!

Bryan (Eagan, MN)

Huge academic improvements in all directions. Improvements in reading, listening, logic, behavioral treatment toward people. Limitless topics.

Naomi (Savage, MN)

Our 10-year-old son’s life is on a GREAT trajectory thanks to his brain being “re-wired” by the LearningRx program! I am a family nurse practitioner, and I can say their system is unlike any other. In the past, my son would be crying nearly every day after school due to the frustration of being behind and overwhelmed. Now, a year later, he’s a confident young man who enjoys school, loves to learn— and even enjoys taking tests!

Ellie (Colorado Springs, CO)

I am certain that my brain works better now than it did even before I got sick. I am thrilled and appreciative. My children (ages 7 and 8) have also trained and have seen great results. If you have a child with ADHD or a child who is struggling to learn to read, training at LearningRx can be life-changing, even when other interventions fail.

Ellie (Charlottesville, VA)

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