Elementary Tutoring in Harrisonburg
It’s never too early to start building core learning and thinking skills. Elementary tutoring is one way to do this, helping kids spend more time with class content. Another option is brain training, a system that builds core learning and thinking skills that kids use in the classroom.
At LearningRx, we offer brain training for kids as young as four years old, including programs for early learning, reading skills, math skills, and special education.
Our programs are similar to elementary tutoring – but with a key difference. Instead of delivering the same content that students are already hearing in class, we focus on building the learning skills kids need to grasp this content on their own. In other words, elementary tutoring focuses on what kids learn, while brain training focuses on how kids learn.
By building these skills early, kids can enjoy a lifetime of learning!
Elementary Tutoring or Brain Training?
Tutoring and brain training are both valuable options for elementary students.
Elementary tutoring is focused on delivering educational content. This makes tutoring a good choice when kids have missed content, or when that content has been poorly delivered. If your child has missed school because of illness or has an inexperienced substitute teacher, tutoring is a great choice.
Meanwhile, brain training focuses on building strong learning skills. These are the skills students need to understand, learn, and remember educational content in the first place. If kids are having trouble learning, no matter how much time they spend with the material, brain training can build skills to make learning easier.
This makes brain training a great choice for elementary students who are having trouble with early lessons and need help building core learning skills – like how to sound out words while reading or how to think in numbers and quantities.
Our research has shown that brain training has a big impact on early learning. In studies, kids and teens who completed a LearningRx program improved learning and thinking skills by 3.6 years on average!
