Brain trainer and student working together on a cognitive training task

Training for Kids & Teens with Learning Disabilities

At LearningRx, we know that learning difficulties are closely tied to cognitive skills. Through brain training, we have helped students of all ages strengthen these skills and address the root cause of learning struggles. In addition to brain training for clients with ADHD, dyslexia, speech delays, and autism, we offer individualized programs for clients with other learning challenges.

LearningRx offers both in-person and online programs, making brain training easily accessible to learners.

My daughter had a known learning disability and had been on an IEP for years with the school. She simply did not understand the work and also could not remember the lessons. This made everything click for her.”

Our Approach is Backed by Science

By creating a program that’s tailored to your child’s needs and goals (or your own!), we can focus on the underlying cause of learning struggles. Our one-on-one programs are a great way to work on cognitive skills and become a more confident learner!

Between 2010 and 2022, more than 2,804 kids and teens with learning disabilities completed a brain training program at LearningRx. On average, these students improved their learning skills by 3.5 years with LearningRx! This includes a gain of 4.8 years in auditory processing.

Personalized Training for Children with Learning Disabilities

LearningRx creates individualized programs for kids and adults with learning disorders and other learning differences.

We start by performing an assessment, which measures the performance of core learning skills. This gives you a detailed picture of learning skills for you or your child, and it can identify which skills are the root cause of learning difficulties.

By identifying which skills have the most room for improvement, we can target these skills in a personalized learning plan!

Brain Training or Tutoring for Learning Disabilities?

There’s an important distinction between brain training and tutoring.

Tutoring tends to focus on delivering information and accommodating each student. In many cases, tutors will find workarounds or accommodations for learning difficulties. This puts students in a position where they can only succeed with accommodations.

Brain training is focused on the root cause of learning difficulties. Our goal is to strengthen underlying learning and thinking skills. When students develop these skills, they can become more confident, more independent, and more successful learners!

Before you get started with brain training, we want to learn more about the challenges experienced by you or your child.

Hear from our Students and Families

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)

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

Heather (Irvine, CA)

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)

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)

10 stand outs after 10 months with LearningRx! 1. No pressure to buy—worth checking into 2. Very flexible with schedule—great customer SERVICE 3. Diverse & creative materials & activities—never got bored or ‘stuck’ 4. Good authentic encouragers—they inspired me to ACHIEVE 5. Intentional, adaptive & personal assistance—not just a program 6. Hands on tools & success markers—inspired me to progress each session 7. Creative solutions, ideas, coaching –helped me OVERCOME real life obstacles 8. Great testing & tracking—real life improvements I saw in test results 9. Utilize legit longstanding science—proven training that WORKS! 10. Not a phony quick fix—hard work with great trainers & my damaged brain grew new routes!!!

Mat W. (Chandler, AZ)

I highly recommend Learning Rx. My daughter has just completed the program and has made significant gains across the board. As a result of this, my daughter is completing her work in class and is retaining the information that she has read. The entire staff has been welcoming and encouraging to her. The biggest part is that this homebody has now become a social butterfly. I feel so confident that she will succeed as she goes off to college thanks to the skills she has gained as part of our training.

Kathy (Chattanooga East, TN)

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)

Everyone was very invested in Anniston’s success. Anniston has researched topics and questions by herself on google a few times in the last couple weeks and that is something she would not have done previously. She spells and reads much better now. She is continuing to grow in her skills.

Lauren (Louisville-Springhurst, KY)

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

Kyle (Milwaukee-Brookfield, WI)

Ron (Eagan, MN)

My son struggled hard with reading. The approach to learning has helped him flourish. His reading comprehension is by and far improved, and he is reading whole pages without stumbling. Highly recommend for all ages and learning styles, for ADD/ADHD and other learning disabilities. It’s one thing for us to be proud of his progress, but it’s something wholly different for him to be proud and confident.

Jes D. (Charlottesville, VA)

My son was reluctant to sign up, but became more engaged once he started making progress. Further along in Learning RX, he became a self starter with his school work and could stay on task for longer periods of time with his improved focus, and ability to tackle more difficult material.

Lee Anne (Charlottesville, VA)

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

Ms Rudd (Texarkana, TX)

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)

At LearningRx, the true difference was made by the teachers. Their dedication, patience, and skill in navigating exactly what [my daughter] needed created a learning environment where she could truly thrive. They didn’t just follow a program—they adapted, encouraged, and met her where she was, guiding her through challenges with understanding and consistency. Their ability to personalize her learning journey not only built her skills but also gave her confidence and resilience.

Mar (Franklin, TN)

As an adult, the program has benefited my career in so many ways. I can think more efficiently and connect information much more rapidly. Prior to LearningRx, I would have to spend hours researching details so that I felt capable in my job. Now, I quickly move from one scenario to another without the panic of not checking to see every detail of what needs to be done next.

Barbara (Huntsville, TX)

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)

My child is more confident in herself and school. She is not avoiding reading, she knows that she is capable and wants to continue to improve. She can focus easier and when she is told homework needs to get done, she gets it done. She is not running to use the bathroom as an excuse to avoid schoolwork.

Zaret (Glendale, AZ)

I see her confidence level through the roof. She speaks about herself in a more positive light. She is catching onto new material quicker and does not get distracted as easily.

Erin (Appleton, WI)

The supportive and patient team at LearningRx provided a truly empowering experience, offering flexible scheduling that catered to my unique needs and goals, while their cognitive assessment and brain training programs helped alleviate my memory problems and improve my logic and reasoning skills.

Sabrina (Highlands Ranch, CO)

My daughter made an incredible amount of growth in her skills while at LearningRx, but even more than that, her confidence is soaring. When we used to go to the library, Piper would come home empty handed. Yesterday she brought home a book with over 300 pages–her confidence is that high. I’m grateful for the gentle encouragement and tough, supportive love from her trainer, Mary, through the last half year.

Jeni (Chattanooga East, TN)

We have really seen an improvement in our son’s cognitive ability since we started LearningRx. The trainers are exceptionally good, and we would highly recommend this course for anybody who is looking for a better way to learn!

Craig G. (Charlottesville, VA)

Our Son really enjoyed his time at LearningRx! Completing this program has given our son confidence and skills for his future and as his parents given us some relief in knowing he is headed in the right direction.

Nikki (River Valley, AR)

Both of my boys when through brain training. Our goal was to fill in any educational gaps and improve their ACT scores. Both boys ended up in the 30s for their ACT. We love LearningRx Texarkana and would recommend this program to others!

Ms Miller (Texarkana, TX)

We are just a month or so in to my boys training, and I have already seen significant improvement. We chose to do the home training a couple hours a week, which I wasn’t sure was going to be doable. Although some weeks are more of a challenge than others, we have been able to accomplish it every week so far. I prayed for weeks for the Lord to show me what I needed to do for my boys, and He led me to Learning RX in an overwhelming way.

Kelli (Chattanooga East, 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)

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)

Micah’s ability to learn without ‘freezing’ is the biggest improvement. Micah’s abilities to spell, write, read, follow instruction have all drastically improved. Micah’s confidence has improved. His excitement of learning has skyrocketed.

Marilyn (Chandler, AZ)

Dewi is an amazing person to work with, she’s very knowledgeable and professional, I highly recommend her!

Noor (Houston Central, TX)

The improvements my son experienced were undeniable and I think their program is very well done. My son was really struggling with auditory processing issues and he was spiraling at home and school. LearningRx not only identified what his issues were, but they explained them in such a way that took the fear out of the unknown.

Ever (Staunton-Harrisonburg, VA)

We are so thrilled to have found LearningRX. Halfway through our brain training program, the results have been noticed by my child’s teacher already. They helped me understand the areas that they were weaker and targeted them for improvement in a fun and challenging environment.

Kristin (Tysons, VA)

My daughter trained here for almost a year. It was the best decision and commitment we could have made! She emerged an entirely new student and adolescence. She has problem solving skills and the confidence to apply them now. She has the work ethic to keep going when things get tough. Honestly I just can’t say enough great things about what this program did for my daughter!

Jenn (Charlottesville, VA)

I now have so much more focus in my day-to-day tasks and can make decisions 1 million times easier instead of spinning my wheels and not getting anything done. I did not expect at this stage in life with almost adult children that I could effectively retrain my brain. Two of our children also did the program and had positive results as well. If you were looking to invest in yourself and or your children, I highly recommend LearningRx.

Colleen (Fort Collins, CO)

LearningRx introduced me to the term “neuroplasticity,” and I have seen its effects in both of my sons…Not only did their grades improve at the time, but in the years since then, they have continued to benefit from the skills they developed from their LearningRx training. The improved ability to focus is one such skill…My other son benefitted especially in the area of math skills, and he is still able to mentally perform math calculations with amazing speed.

Linz (Charlottesville, VA)

As someone who’s had my fair share of bike crashes and TBIs, I can’t emphasize enough how important brain training is. I’ve had the pleasure of hearing Kathi speak to several groups I’m involved with, and she truly knows her stuff when it comes to the brain. If you’re looking to improve memory, focus, or recover from a TBI, you won’t find a more knowledgeable or supportive team out there.

Orion (Highlands Ranch, CO)

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)

Our son was barely reading in 4th grade and now he is reading confidently and enjoying it. He volunteers to read regularly and there has been a huge change in his attitude as well because he is confident in his reading! If you are on the fence just do it! It’s a lot but so worth it!

Brenda (Charlottesville, VA)

My daughter is a senior in high school and has struggled in school all her life. She has had tutors on and off for over 10 years. Her biggest struggles were with her processing both visual and auditory, memorizing math facts and problem solving to name a few. They were very understanding and flexible with her training sessions because she is a very busy student. They met three days a week online for about six months and now after those six months, she has improved in every area and is doing better in school and has much more confidence in herself. She now has a good foundation to be successful in life.

Sara (Woodbury, MN)

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)

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)

Learning RX was a great way to bring some excitement out in our daughter when it comes to learning! She really improved in so much and has sooo much more confidence in herself, her ability to problem solve and her overall attitude about math and school work. She had the most incredible trainer Caitlin…Imani is so easy to communicate with, listens and engages with the students and parents so well. Marilyn was always very welcoming and we appreciated her a ton!

Annie (Colorado Springs, CO)

It was not a one size fits all program. The tested progress along the way, made necessary adjustment to ensure progress was happening. The director was always available if we needed anything, answered all our questions and make sure we were comfortable before we started, during the training and following graduation.

Stephanie (Minneapolis, MN)

We love the experience we have had there so far. My son who has severe dyslexia has made significant improvement in just 3 months!

Kristy (Chattanooga East, TN)

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)

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 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)

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)

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

Jonathan (Dublin, OH)

I know that Riley still needs work with his attention and focus. However, I have seen improvement in these areas that has helped his schoolwork. I’ve seen that he’s been a bit quicker to solve a problem and remember what he was doing. These are the biggest areas I’ve seen. Another plus has been that he’ll sit and focus for a longer period of time.

Christen (Glendale, AZ)

During and after training we have seen a lot of great improvements in my son. There was a big leap in maturity and ability to think reasonably and logically about situations and problems. His task endurance has gone up significantly. Reading ability has improved. Overall his grades at school are really good. His ability to participate in group work has greatly improved. Thanks to Nick and the wonderful folks at LearningRx!

Lacy (Charlottesville, VA)
