Changing the Trajectory of a Child’s Life
We love having the privilege of changing the trajectory of a child’s life. We often receive updates from students we have worked with many years ago and the success they have achieved since their LearningRx training. This is not surprising as one of the greatest benefits of our cognitive skills training is that the gains are long lasting. Most students do not need to train for more than one program. Maddie is one of these students. Maddie trained with us 9 years ago as she was experiencing significant struggles with homework frustration, test taking, attention issues and executive function.
Her parents were thrilled with her success back in 2016 as her father shared, “My 12-year-old girl had been struggling with her homework and preparing for tests. Our nights consisted of frustration, from my wife and I, and tears from my daughter. For me, it was heartbreaking, because I could identify with her struggles. My wife had mentioned LearningRx, so we decided to schedule a consultation. Instantly I was amazed with the activity and energy of the teaching stations. When we met with our counselor, he immediately assured my girl that there was nothing wrong with her. He told her that they were going recalibrate her brain to work more efficiently by finding her strong areas and using them to build on her weaker areas. My jaw hit the floor as he shared techniques and explained the processes. I was sold. Right then and there, I was committed to see this through.
I expected there to be push back from my daughter, but there was none. She said that she felt like they weren’t “teaching” her anything and that it was like they were playing games and puzzles. I thought to myself, BRILLIANT!
The classes ran all through summer and spilled into the next school year. Guess what, there wasn’t any stress with homework or tests. As a matter of fact, she was able to complete her homework at school! Our family time was saved!
After completing the course, my daughter is now a member of the honor society, a straight A student and for December, she was student of the month for 8th grade Shakopee!
We are so grateful to the entire Savage LearningRx team. My daughter’s academic future has been directed to a path of continued excellence.
I truly wish every child had the opportunity to have LearningRx work with them. My daughter not only has better grades, but she has been given confidence as she becomes a young woman and chases her ever evolving career path. If you love your child, you need to make this happen. IT’S A LIFE CHANGER!”
This was 9 years ago. How is Maddie doing now? We received this update from her mother last week:
“LearningRx was a game changer for my daughter when she was 12 years old. She went from not being able to retain basic information for a science or math test to being an A student that did not need help with homework anymore. Now she is graduating from the University of Minnesota on May 16 with a 3.65 GPA. We are such fans of LearningRx. Thank you!”
If you are looking for an intervention that truly changes a child’s future, strategies like tutoring, ADHD coaching, reading interventions, etc. can be helpful, but they do not typically address the root cause as to why a child is struggling resulting in the need to continue these tutoring type strategies year-after-year. To date, we have 17 peer-reviewed studies published in psychology and medical journals showing the efficacy of our training. We have also had the opportunity to do fMRI’s (brain scans) in some of the research and we were published in the Journal of Neuroimaging due to the changes our training drives. This is partly why our gains are long lasting. We are not providing learning strategies/tips or tutoring and more academic content, we are changing the way a child’s brain is functioning which is why we are often changing the trajectory of a child’s life.
If your child is stuck in the frustrating cycle of tutoring and school interventions year-after-year just trying to keep up, call LearningRx Woodbury to start the process to finally get ahead and help your child reach their full potential. We love working with struggling students be it difficulties with reading, attention, math, or motivation. Or if they have a diagnosis like ADHD, dyslexia, autism or a general learning disability – we love changing the trajectory of a child’s life!
