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

Kenlee was really struggling as a student going into the 2nd grade. She had only been homeschooled. No matter what skills I tried, she was only reading on a kindergarten level and now within 6 months she is on grade level. Her confidence has grown, she is more focused during task, and her behavior is better.

Kandi (Texarkana, TX)

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)

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)

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

Jonathan (Dublin, OH)

Fantastic staff and program. Really helped my child on her ability to do schoolwork. This year she has been spending about half as much time on assignments and her memorization is largely improved.

Kathryn (Fort Collins, CO)

Our son’s reading ability and comprehension has increased significantly after completing this program. I don’t know of anything else out there like it. It is a very different approach from traditional tutoring and very effective. I highly recommend them.

Melissa (Chandler, AZ)

The trainers really care about the students, and they push each student to reach the next goal. The training is very motivating, and it has helped my kids in levels of reading, motivation and confidence.

Julie (Woodbury, MN)

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)

Highly recommend this program! Teachers are fantastic and you will see tremendous improvements!

Sapana (Sugar Land, TX)

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

Juan (Edina, MN)

The trainers, the environment, the philosophy all of it has been quite effective for my children and their growth with their learning challenges.

Carmel (Dublin, OH)

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)

Very great place, I learned a lot! I loved the people that I trained with.

Elizabeth P. (Cedar Rapids North, IA)

Our plan was individually tailored to our daughter’s needs, with essential measure of success and effectiveness built into it. Everyone involved, from the director to the trainer, support staff, etc. were very helpful. Lastly, high levels of communication were maintained and encouraged throughout the process.

David (Charlottesville, VA)

LearningRx helped me with my memory and I now have more opportunities at work.

Kyle (Milwaukee-Brookfield, WI)

This place is such a gem! North Louisiana is blessed to have such a top notch facility to help children and families overcome any and all learning challenges. My son is enjoying reading for the first time ever! And is not even half way through his program. Donesa is the most wonderful person to work with. And all the trainers are qualified and trained. Such a blessing.

Roo (Shreveport, LA)

I saw so much growth in confidence and her dedication and interest in learning. We are so proud of her hard work, and don’t think we could have picked a better program! Maison was matched with the trainer, she was comfortable which helped with her success within the program.

Danielle (Irvine, CA)

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)

The program is set up in such a way that I was able to progress with ease. My memory has definitely gotten stronger. I’m also able to remember and comprehend what I just read better.

Shannon (Indianapolis NE, IN)

LearningRx in Shoreview is absolutely incredible. We are amazed at the progress our 8-year-old grandson has made since September. Focus, processing, memory functions and reading fluency have all been positively impacted. The staff is friendly and well trained. We couldn’t be more pleased with our experience.

Jeanne (Shoreview, MN)

LearningRx has been amazing for my 1st Grader! I have watched him gain confidence in learning subjects that were challenging to him and have also seen an increase in his academic test scores since his training began in Chattanooga. Everyone has been amazing to work with, and so welcoming and kind. Excited to see my son’s future progress. Thank you LearningRx – Chattanooga!

Cate (Chattanooga, TN)

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)

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)

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)

My daughter was struggling to read anything beyond basic CVC words at 8 years old. After diagnosing her specific issues, the folks at Learning Rx delivered their reading program to my daughter. In 8 months of lessons, my daughter demonstrated TWO YEARS of growth. I cannot recommend Michelle’s team highly enough. They have been professional, inspiring, and have worked hard to deliver what my child needed to excel. Her confidence is through the roof, and I will be eternally grateful.

J. B. (Chattanooga East, TN)

As parents of a 6-year-old recently diagnosed with ADHD, we were searching for a non-medication intervention to help our son focus, regulate his body, and succeed in school…The progress has been incredible. He’s more focused, calmer, and performing very well academically…We’re so grateful for the Learning RX team and their program. Annabella was AMAZING with my son and she used creative ways to motivate him and keep him on track.

Megan (Eden Prairie, 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)

I can’t thank Learning Rx enough! Our son has officially graduated from the program and the improvement we have seen is amazing! It was the foundation he needed to thrive in school and we are relieved and grateful. I highly recommend this program! Thank you Learning Rx! Keep up the good work!

Lofquist Family (Raleigh, NC)

My son has been attending LearningRx for just a month, and he loves it! He really enjoys the challenging games and looks forward to each session. His coach is very nice and has made a great connection with him. I can already see little improvements in his focus and engagement. My son usually resists new activities, but he’s been surprisingly enthusiastic about LearningRx.

Marcy (Eagan)

This place is the BEST! Both my sons went here starting in Kinder and the only thing I regret is NOT doing it sooner! They have boosted their confidence and got them reading in no time! How do I forget about there math skills too – great place!

Jacoba C. (Chandler, AZ)

We have seen big changes in our daughter this school year. She is getting her work done more independently, her grades are excellent, and she is more confident. Your program helps build stronger skills and we like that your approach is different and better than traditional tutoring.

Sergio (Reston, VA)

We saw significant improvement in our daughter’s reading ability and fluency and know that it was from the work she did during her sessions at LearningRx. Our daughter started LearningRx being unable to read. She could sound out CVC words but was unable to blend the sounds together to say the word. She is now able to sound out many words, blend them together, and even read words without having to sound them out. She is able to read short stories. She used to dislike going to school as she would get frustrated with being unable to do the work. She now enjoys school and has a great attitude about going.

Heather (Princeton, MN)

I highly recommend it because it has allowed me to take more control over my life because my brain is functioning more efficiently. That makes everything better! I am so pleased with my results from LearningRx. I went from being frustrated with how my brain worked and feeling like I was “stupid” to gaining confidence in my abilities to manage tasks. I have so much more time now that I can organize and prioritize my thoughts. LearningRx has changed my future.

Blake (Raleigh, NC)

Impressive results and an incredibly caring staff who are very focused on our child’s development. Really pleased with the results!

CM (Tysons, VA)

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)

Learning Rx is amazing and helped my daughter tremendously with her confidence and study skills. I highly recommend!

Beth (Chattanooga, TN)

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)

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)

LearningRx has been absolutely wonderful! The staff are caring, patient, and so supportive. Our son has made incredible progress — his teachers constantly comment on how much he’s improved both academically and behaviorally. We couldn’t be happier with his growth and the positive changes we’ve seen!

Steph (Eagan, MN)

Ethan could not read at the beginning of his training. He had no confidence on himself. And the school did not support us as a family. The difference in his attitude is what makes me so happy and proud. He is a different kid. He not only knows he can do hard things but that he will succeed. That alone is the best feeling as a parent. Thank you for your patience and support Ms. Sandra and Mr. Don.

Magy (Fairfax, VA)

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)

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)

Awesome experience! Our daughter was struggling in school and her school scores had lowered throughout the year. We started researching and found LearningRX. We noticed a huge difference after three months and now she is above her grade level and loves reading!

Brandon Chattanooga East, TN)

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)

The big thing for us is responsiveness and taking the time to clearly respond. The director was always accessible, and as accommodating as needed. When we needed to make changes, she also took action. I think there were some unforeseen staffing challenges the director has to respond to, and I thought Vincent didn’t really lose too much of a connection when the changes were made.

Danielle (The Woodlands, TX)

Our son had struggled with ADHD and OCD for many years through school. School continually struggled to meet his needs and adapt to someone that thinks differently. LearningRx has been absolutely life changing in the success of our son. His score improvements was a testament to that. The larger changes we saw were in day to day thinking, problem solving, attention to details, staying on track with a schedule and overall increased confidence was clear. The only thing is I wished we had found LearningRx earlier in his school career.

Adam (Savage, MN)

We are new to LearningRx. But we love it. Staff are friendly, easy to talk to and helpful. My son likes his coach Gina. She always has smile on her face and great communicator.

Hani (St. Louis Park, MN)

Dylan is more independent, confident, and resilient. He is capable of completing tasks now without our intervention or support.

Bryce (Irvine, CA)

The staff are incredible. Didi has improved in her basic reading and problem-solving skills as well as her ability to focus. We appreciate all the center has done to help our girl succeed.

Jamie (Franklin, TN)

My daughter’s trainers, Shannon and Lauren, were above and beyond professional, kind, encouraging and very skilled. They topped my expectations!

Lucile (Alpharetta, GA)

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