Brain Training for Seniors August 21 is Senior Citizen’s Day and if you or a senior you love is looking to boost their cognitive performance, LearningRx may be able to help. While most people think of personal brain training as something from which only children and teens can benefit, LearningRx has worked with thousands of adult clients. In fact, between 2010 and 2018, more than 2,000 adults graduated from our programs and the average graduate improved by +14 IQ points. They made significant gains in working memory, attention, and long-term memory, as well as other skills. How Adult Brain Training Works Rather than delivering information, as tutoring might do, LearningRx personal brain training focuses on strengthening cognitive skills. The brain skills—which include auditory and visual processing, attention, logic & reasoning, memory, and processing speed—are the foundational tools we need to think, learn, pay attention, read, and remember. Every initial consultation includes a one-hour Brain Skills Assessment, which measures the strength of these core skills. Using the results of this assessment, your LearningRx team will design a personal brain training program designed to target and strengthen any brain skills that are preventing you from living up to your full cognitive potential. We’ll pair you with your own personal brain trainer for the duration of your program. The trainer will use fun but challenging mental drills and cognitive exercises to give your mind a workout. About Personal Brain Training LearningRx programs are based on more than 35 years of research, refinement, and development. Over the decades we’ve finetuned our personal brain training based on the six key ingredients that make it most effective. These include: 1. Must be practiced regularly 2. Needs to be focused and targeted 3. Requires immediate and accurate feedback 4. Should be done in a one-on-one setting 5. Needs to be done in a particular sequence 6. Needs to be intense Would you like to hear what our senior graduates have to say about their experience with LearningRx personal brain training?
