Brain Training or Tutoring for Studying Skills?

Hiring a tutor is one of the most popular ways to help students study. But it’s not always the most effective option.

While tutoring can be highly effective for some students, others have just as much trouble studying with a tutor’s help. Often, these students need to strengthen core brain skills to make studying easier. That’s where brain training can help!

While tutoring focuses on what students learn, brain training focuses on how students learn. Instead of simply repeating what kids already heard in class, brain training gives them the skills and strategies they need to process, understand, and retain this information.

Are learning from a substitute teacher
Benefit from reviewing class materials

Brain training is a great choice fit for students who:

Need to work harder or longer on schoolwork than peers

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)

The staff, program, and results that we have seen throughout the whole process for Jacquelyn has been a great experience! We are already seeing her confidence being boosted after a few weeks. Not only has the confidence changed in her, but the ability to do her own work independently and require less assistance. The results from the beginning to now are incredible and we as parents feel better about her future.

Jenny (River Valley, AR)

My daughter, Eden, has improved in almost every area possible. Her reading, and willingness to try to sound out things is amazing.

Janet (Staunton-Harrisonburg, VA)

LearningRx has prepared our son to develop better cognitive skills such as his attention skills, processing speed, and auditory processing. It was a tremendous help and made a great impact. A turning point for our son! We are truly grateful for the program and the wonderful, caring teachers who have worked with our son! Thank you LearningRx!

Mrs. Soe (Texarkana, TX)

My son has dyslexia and was really struggling to read. He not only reads now but reads well and is devouring books! My son also struggles with memory issues among other things, and it’s been so fun to see his memory strengthened and his ability to tell us more things and share more details and even do more things on his own. His confidence absolutely soared after this experience!

Kellee (Woodbury, MN)

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)

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

Giselle (Chandler, AZ)

The skills that my daughter developed while working with Francesca are invaluable. My daughter’s improved reading skills alone are life changing; they will affect nearly every class she attends, and will probably affect her career choice. Her improved attention and listening abilities have reduced her frustration with school subjects, and thus make her more compliant. She doesn’t panic when she can’t immediately decode a word or grasp a concept. She has learned that there are strategies to make these challenges manageable.

Laura (Charlottesville, VA)

LearningRx Eden Prairie outperformed our expectations! I was honestly a bit skeptical about it at first but going in talking to Baird understanding how they approached things all made sense. Our teenage son completed the program and the transformation of his confidence, wittiness, memory, grades (when he applied himself) and overall ability to recognize situations was life changing.

Mike (Minneapolis, MN)

I just finished training my brain with LearningRx and took my post assessment this week. Y’all, my scores went UP in every cognitive function category! I can concentrate all day on many different tasks and not get distracted or fatigued. I have always had to juggle many many things as an independent contractor and now I feel on top of all of them! I highly recommend looking into the benefits of cognitive training, especially if you’re starting to feel like your memory and focus is slipping. I can not recommend this program enough! Thanks to Dargan, my trainer, Jessica, and the incredible staff! I’m so grateful for what you do❤️❤️❤️

Elizabeth (Charlottesville, VA)

LearningRx has been incredible for our son. He was struggling in math, memorizing information for tests, and struggling to pay attention in class. He was getting distracted really easily by other students and noises in the classroom and it hindered his ability to stay on task. My son’s confidence has skyrocketed, but more importantly than that it has elevated his level of grit.

Allie (Colorado Springs, CO)

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)

The director and staff of trainers are awesome. They demonstrated their care and concern for my successful completion of the program each time I had class. I have spoken highly of them to others and recommended them to several people that I felt could benefit from the program.

Pamela (Charlottesville, VA)

Now I can finally read and sound out words! I can now read because of Mrs. Donesa and the LearningRx program! Before LearningRx, I thought I was just dumb! Some kids made fun of me because I could not read our sound out words. I did not like myself very much. Now I do! I can now participate in classes at school and church and not be embarrassed or afraid to read out loud or give answers like the other students. I am finally making decent grades! Now my mom cries when I read to her because I can read!

Tanner (Shongaloo, LA)

The significant improvement that we saw in our daughter learning wise during that time. Not forgetting as much as she used to with simple directions. Completing tasks and schoolwork. Participation in class due to the confidence that she knows the material.

Rachael (Raleigh, NC)

I was thoroughly impressed with the expertise of the tutors at LearningRx, who demonstrated a deep understanding of the cognitive assessment process and provided personalized guidance to help me overcome my memory problems. Through their brain training and logic and reasoning exercises, I was able to restore my cognitive abilities and feel more confident in my abilities.

Travis (Highlands Ranch, CO)

LearningRx has been the best decision I ever made for my son. The growth and transformation I’ve seen academically has been astronomical. The one-on-one brain training has given him the foundation and tools needed to excel in school. I am beyond grateful for LearningRx and Ms. Makenzie his trainer.

Ashley (San Antonio NE, TX)

The staff took a true interest in our son and developing a strategy to help him grow and succeed in life and his education.

Mandy (Fishers, IN)

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)

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)

My great grandson was having so much difficulty in school with his reading and they had helped him so much before with all his skills, I knew this would be the way to go.

Ms Whitmer (Texarkana, TX)

My daughter has struggled with school since kindergarten. She ended up having ADHD and Dyslexia. I was and still am in awe, in 9 months my daughter has grown tremendously. She is now a graduate of this training program and can confidently say the skills she gained has helped and will help her for the rest of her life.

Carolina (Atlanta-Buckhead, GA)

The staff took time to ensure Terri reached her potential and adjusted as needed.

Sherri (Huntsville, TX)

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)

I can’t put into words how absolutely grateful I am for Kathi and Doug sincerely. I sustained several injuries including a closed-head injury when a nail gun fell off of a roof and hit me directly on the head…I started with an initial 18-week program and could see the impact. So much so I extended the contract – I am currently over a year now as a client and I couldn’t have asked for a better brain trainer. I highly recommend for anyone recovering from injuries similar to mine.

Bree (Highlands Ranch, CO)

The dedicated and amazing team provided exceptional guidance and one-on-one training that truly made a difference. Not only has my son gained confidence, but he is also enjoying school more and performing better in his studies. The personalized approach and supportive environment made learning enjoyable and engaging for him. I highly recommend this program to any parent looking to make a positive change in their child’s educational journey.

Liezl (Katy, TX)

We’ve noticed an increase in confidence in himself. He seems to trust his abilities more than he used to. He is able to listen to directions better and seems more able to hear them. He is more excited about school and learning. LearningRx has been a great experience for him!

Alyson (Savage, MN)

My daughter had a very positive experience at LearningRx. She loved working one on one with her trainers and enjoyed each session. She has made great strides in reading, math, writing and in her overall confidence as a student.

Gail (Eagan, MN)

Our daughter started the ReadRx program in November, mid-pandemic. At the halfway point she was reading at grade level, and reading magazines and chapter books – for fun! Her reading continued to improve…and by the time she finished, we saw huge improvements in her processing speed and ability to recall information. The program is hard work, but worth every bit of effort!

Heather (Charlottesville, VA)

Our daughter has enjoyed LearningRx and went from struggling to finish assignments to completing them and doing them correctly. She never wanted to read on her own without prompting and now will pick up books by herself to read. She said this is her best school year so far which is a huge change from the previous years. She is able to remember what is being told to her without having to repeatedly tell her.

Lindsey (River Valley, AR)

We are 4 months into my 10yr old daughter’s brain training. I could not be more grateful for this program. Her trainer Francesca is AMAZING she really took her time getting to know my daughter so she can train and encourage her well. I have been so impressed with everyone’s knowledge and communication…My daughter is already feeling more confident in school during both reading and math. I am so glad we found LearningRx!

Daniela (Charlottesville, VA)

Mike was very engaging and knowledgeable and has an amazing background that fits perfectly with this work. He is also very passionate and truly cares about helping the people that come in. It is apparent that he is in this to change lives and that’s refreshing to find.

Alli (Fort Collins, CO)

Hearing the news that your daughter has dyslexia is quite frightening. As a parent all you see is your bright, beautiful, and perfect little girl. Your first thought is fear, but then you want to help. Reaching out to LearningRx was the best academic decision we could have ever made for her. They have the sweetest staff, and we were blessed with the best trainer. She has truly transformed my daughter to a reader. Her confidence level when reading has tripled. Through all of the whining and complaining, they pushed through.

Brittany (Many, LA)

We have seen many improvements within Mackenzie in all categories. Not only has it helped her grades and academically but in everyday life. She is much more confident in herself, and this program has helped grow her brain, but she has also grown as a person.

Jamie & Kevin (Indianapolis NE, IN)

This is an evidence-based training that was conducted with the utmost organization and professionalism and resulted in appreciable improvements in my child’s school performance but more importantly, on his well-being. This was money well invested. I had contact with four different staff members, all very knowledgeable and professional. My child’s trainer was fantastic. Her commitment to my child’s improvement was evident.

Shadia C. (Charlottesville, VA)

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)

After completing a 20-week program, we’ve seen great improvements in her abilities at school. She is better able to stay focused and deal with distractions, something that had previously been a challenge. Her confidence has soared and this boost in self-assurance has been evident in all areas of her academic and social life. Math, which once felt like a constant struggle, has become much easier for her. She now handles math facts with greater ease and working through her math homework no longer causes the same frustration.

Stephanie (Savage, MN)

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)

Ana (Charlottesville, VA)

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)

Our experience at Learning RX was Great! The staff were very knowledgeable and supportive. So glad we signed up for the program. [Our son] made a huge amount of improvement.

K.S. (Chattanooga, TN)

Since completing my program, I have seen great improvement in my memory, comprehension, and processing speed. LearningRx made my completion of high school and transition to college a lot smoother. I don’t have to work so hard to understand things anymore. I am able to do things more quickly and also fully understand each step.

Kelsi, (Appleton, WI)

LearningRx has helped our son focus better, pick up on things faster and has given him more confidence in himself and at school. Nicole was Tristin’s trainer, and she was amazing and Mike was super great as well. Always very friendly and responsive!

Chris (Fort Collins, CO)

From skeptical to beyond satisfied! We are very satisfied with our experience at LearningRX. The staff was helpful and easy to work with. We are pleased with our son’s progress and look forward to him continuing his improvement.

Laura (Chattanooga East, TN)

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)

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)

After going through the program for three months, my child’s attitude toward school has changed dramatically. He used to be a student whom teachers paid little attention to. Last month, he was named Student of the Month. He is so proud of himself.

Parent (Cresskill, NJ)

My daughter’s experience with Learning Rx has been a journey in gaining confidence, focus, study and comprehension skills. The trainers she worked with were fantastic at keeping her engaged – it was such positive experience for her! She worked with Kyle over the summer and even though she was working hard, he made it fun and kept her happy to be spending some of her vacation developing long-lasting skills. Learning Rx has made such a difference in her self-esteem and school performance!

Christy (Cary, NC)

Although I’m an adult, I greatly benefit from my training at LearningRx! After 6 months of training 3 days a week, I’m noticing I’m starting to calculate numbers in my head, which is huge since I was diagnosed with dyscalculia in my early 20’s! I’m even finding myself visualizing my next turn when driving, something I could never do before my training! LearningRx is helpful for all ages! I only wish I found them sooner!

Miranda (Reston, VA)

My son has changed so much. Great grades, improved work ethic, and overall, at ease with school.

Mrs. Watkins (Texarkana, TX)

You or your child may or may not achieve the same results as past LearningRx clients. But give us a call. We’d love to work with you, too!
