Last week as I was sitting in a waiting room with lots of other women, conversations swirled around me as mothers and grandmothers chattered about the day’s events, children, upcoming activities and what they were preparing for dinner. One particular conversation caught my attention as one of the women mentioned LearningRx.
I was intrigued by her comments about how her son had progressed from being “behind in his class” a couple of years ago, to being the “top of his class” now, and he was finding it much easier to grasp new concepts and ideas through reading. She talked about how much he now enjoys reading when prior to attending LearningRx training, he didn’t even want to be near a book. It was obvious she was truly grateful for what LearningRx had done for her son.
As an interested and engaged grandparent, I am always trying to keep up with what is going on in the field of education. Fortunately, my granddaughter and grandson are both doing very well in school. But I know that every year gets more challenging and we need to know as much as possible about helping children excel.
I also feel that anyone can be a resource to other parents or grandparents who are presented with challenges in many areas of life, so keeping up with what’s new in education is just a good idea all the way around.
So when I returned home, I did some research on the program.
Train the brain
I learned that LearningRx can actually help “train the brain” and unlock doors so a child regains enthusiasm for reading, overcomes life-long learning and reading problems, and immediately begins to enjoy long-term success in school and in life. I was amazed to find that “brain training” is one of the keys that brings the science behind learning and reading success to life for many children.
Although it sounded unbelievable to me, I knew it was true because I had heard this woman extol the value of the LearningRx program. When I mentioned this to another friend later, she quickly chimed in that she knew someone who had attended LearningRx and had the same experience. She said it was unbelievable what they could do in a short amount of time.
Not just for children
The thing that intrigues me most about LearningRx is the fact that their programs are not just designed for children. They help all types and ages of people learn, read and think faster and easier. And that includes people with ADHD, autism, dyslexia, and similar disorders. They also offer help to college students, career adults, senior adults and struggling students of any age, including preschool and first graders.
I share this with our readers because I believe there are often so many stigmas associated with disorders and conditions that create challenges in learning. There are also many people who believe that children who don’t do well in school are just not trying hard enough or are not capable of doing better.
I am also encouraged that LearningRx has programs for cognitive challenges that people face as they get older. Their website states, “Age-related mental decline can be stopped in its tracks”. My own mother passed away with complications from Alzheimer’s Disease three years ago, and I constantly search for ways to keep my own brain engaged, challenged and, yes, “trained”. Scientifically-based programs such as LearningRx may hold one of the keys to unlock doors for aging adults who find their minds are not as sharp as they once were – that is reason for celebration.
Proven success
LearningRx is a program that demonstrates that there are proven ways to overcome problems associated with learning challenges and barriers. It may be as simple as taking the step to call them to get the right help for a child, or even an adult, that will change the way they see the world and live the rest of their lives.
I encourage parents and grandparents who encounter learning challenges in their children, grandchildren or themselves, to contact LearningRx and find out what it’s all about.
It may the one phone call that turns a life around.
