Homeschooling and LearningRx – A Great Partnership

With so many options available, it’s easy to get caught up in the idea that a perfect curriculum in your homeschooling program is the key to success. However, while it’s important, it’s not the most critical factor in ensuring your child’s educational success.

Personalized Learning in Homeschooling Efforts

Every child has unique learning needs, and tailoring your teaching approach to match those needs is essential. A flexible schedule that allows your child to learn at their own pace and adapting lessons to match their interests and strengths are two good ideas. It can also mean adding experiential learning opportunities (field trips to museums) or allowing your child to take the lead on special projects. However, there can still be problems in their general learning abilities.

At LearningRx, we look deeper: what is going on in their brain that is making things inaccessible for them? Why is reading a fight? Why can’t they stay engaged and motivated? Many parents miss a crucial piece of homeschooling – knowing their students’ cognitive skill levels.

Start Homeschooling with an Assessment

You have the unique opportunity to work with your child and see firsthand their strengths and weaknesses. Instead of just needing to adapt the curriculum to meet those needs, you have the ability to investigate WHY certain areas of learning are so hard in the first place. And strengthen these areas first! Give them the skills to begin now.

Cognitive Skills are Key

Homeschooling and public school learning are both linked to cognitive skills. These are things like:

How these cognitive areas work together will determine how your brain interacts with the world. And this is what we do here at LearningRx. We assess your child’s cognitive skills and provide a plan to strengthen each area starting with the lowest skill area first. You can adapt their personalized learning plan to start with strengthening the weak areas first – a good idea for a successful school year in every subject matter!

Rather than changing your homeschooling curriculum and teaching methods to adapt to your child’s learning preferences, you can give your child the skills to learn successfully in any environment!

Strengthening cognitive areas can go a long way towards making your homeschooling journey less stressful for the whole family. Instead of constantly shifting and changing your approach, brain training allows your child to develop the thinking and learning skills they need to have to learn efficiently and successfully right from the start.
