How Brain Training is Customized for Everyone

Brain training through LearningRx is a customized solution for learning and mental performance. Through our programs, individuals get a unique approach to their minds and functions. Students and clients have usually tried many other alternative interventions like tutoring, medication, and computer games before they come to us. While these solutions have their place, they aren’t always the right fit for everyone.

Particular factors influence how people get “behind” in school and work. If someone recently had a significant life event causing them to miss lessons and or meetings, then remediating services like tutoring or extra time for work projects may be the right solution. But if feeling “behind” never gets behind someone, then it may be worth the time and effort to look into cognitive skills training.

Brain training does not mean that a person is not intelligent. It’s quite the opposite. People who come to brain training are usually altogether bright. Training the cognitive skills in the brain helps brilliant people make stronger connections and create more neuroplasticity, which is the brain’s way of becoming more flexible and adaptable. To help people of all ages develop more links in their minds, we must know which areas are having trouble building those pathways.

That is why we start with a cognitive skills assessment. We don’t treat or diagnose conditions, but our cognitive test investigates the skills that make up how people think, learn, and process information. These skills include attention, long-term and working memory, logic and reasoning, visual processing, auditory processing, and processing speed. The assessment tests each of these skills and rates how a person compares on a percentile chart against people in their same age bracket.

Once the results are in, clients meet with a brain training expert to go over each result. Seeing the results helps clients uncover some of the cognitive skills that may be causing their hardships in thinking and learning. This meeting is the tipping point for many people and helps them realize why they have some of the struggles in work, school, and life. During the second half of this meeting, a LearningRx brain training expert will reveal a plan to strengthen these skills. Based on individuals’ results, they will be assigned one of our core programs accompanied by our groundbreaking ThinkRx program, which works on all cognitive skills to help clients learn more efficiently.

Clients are assigned a personal brain trainer who will act as their coach and guide when working through these programs. The trainer knows the plan and will work on the skills the client needs most. For example, if working memory test results were the lowest, the trainer may focus on incorporating more exercises for increasing working memory skills.

Brain games and tutoring can’t always get as personal as brain training at LearningRx can. Through decades of research, we have tested many brain training exercises and options to provide clients with the best solution to their cognitive needs. We have seen tremendous results through the personalization and intensity of brain training with a human trainer that continue to change people’s lives worldwide.
