If you have a child or know a child who shows signs of dyslexia or signs of learning difficulties, then you'll want to hear this special interview with a local Director of Learning RX, a brain training center. This is the place where we found a solution for our son who struggled with reading. My interview with her lasts approximately 30 minutes, but I believe it will be worth your time since you'll hear about a solution for the many learning challenges that children and adults face. May you glean hope from this special podcast!

Don’t have time to listen to the podcast? Read below for a solution that we found for our child’s learning difficulties.

Have you spent hours in frustration and failure trying to find answers and solutions for your child’s learning difficulties? If you answered yes, I believe you will find relief and hope in a place that we found it. Introducing…Learning RX! It’s not a DVD, book, or curriculum, but it’s actually a training center, which provides exactly what you’re looking for…answers and a solution for your child’s learning challenges. This is great news for the discouraged child who has faced this detrimental dilemma. Parents don’t have to accept the idea that their child will be stuck with these learning difficulties for the rest of his life. On the contrary, Learning RX gives you the answer that you need and provides the means for your child to overcome any learning challenges.

What exactly is Learning RX? It is a brain training center that provides a personalized training program targeted at your child’s cognitive weaknesses that make it difficult for him or her to learn. The following information is taken directly from one of their brochures:

What is brain training?

Brain training is a system of highly targeted exercises used to change your brain’s capacity to think and learn. Science has proven that brain training can strengthen learning and reading skills and increase IQ.

How does it work?

Research has identified cognitive skills as the root source of learning. Brain training describes a set of revolutionary new techniques developed by brain researchers and professionals that test, target and strengthen specific mental skills. If mental skills - such as auditory processing and memory - are strong, learning comes easily and naturally. If skill weaknesses remain hidden, a student will often face chronic learning, reading, and performance struggles. Strengthening weak brain skills is the key to permanently overcoming those struggles.

I first found out about Learning RX when I was having a difficult time teaching one of my sons to read. My husband and I believed that there had to be a root cause for his reading and learning difficulties, so we began researching. Then, we came across the website of Learning RX. Thankfully, there was a training center not too far from our home. We scheduled our son for a professional skills test that would pin-point which of his cognitive skills were weak. Once we met with the Director of the center, we reviewed his test results and found out exactly why he struggled with reading and learning. We were so relieved to finally find the root cause of his reading challenges. The center offered a personalized brain training program that would target his weak cognitive skills (such as processing speed, working memory, and audio processing speed) in order to change his brain’s capacity to think and learn. We decided to put him in a 24-week training program in which he goes to the training center four times a week.

Right now, he is just half way through the program, and he has already experienced positive effects from the brain training. In fact, he immediately took on a positive and enthusiastic attitude toward learning the first week of his training. Before this time, he was discouraged when trying to learn anything. He labeled himself “a forgetter” and displayed a defeatist attitude. Now, he knows there is hope. His confidence level has soared as well as his ability to read. He no longer dreads reading or math time; it’s not a struggle for him anymore. Words cannot describe how my husband and I feel about the evident changes that we’ve seen in our son, and he hasn’t even finished the program. He now has an enthusiasm for learning because weak cognitive skills no longer hold him back!
