Does Brain Training Really Work?

Yes! LearningRx’s brain training results have been demonstrated through 35+ years of research and results.

Over 134,000 graduates have completed LearningRx training.

In a research study, students saw an average gain of 3.6 years in learning and cognitive skills in just a few months.

In qualitative research, parents reported:

Increased self-esteem and confidence
Improved relationships with family members
Better performance at school in their children after completing brain training

These measurable results demonstrate the life-changing potential of brain training—and why LearningRx is a market leader in cognitive development.

As a franchisee, you’ll be backed by a company with decades of student success.

Not all cognitive training programs are alike! LearningRx is distinct in many ways from the variety of digital training programs available today. Foremost, LearningRx programs are delivered by a clinician who gives dynamic feedback throughout every training session. Further, LearningRx programs are based on the Cattell-Horn-Carroll theory of intelligence, a widely-accepted view of cognition and the theoretical foundation of modern day cognitive assessment. LearningRx is comprehensive; targeting and training seven key cognitive skills and multiple sub-skills

Brain Training Vs Tutoring

While traditional tutoring focuses on re-teaching information, brain training focuses on strengthening the brain’s ability to learn in the first place. That’s why it’s a powerful alternative for struggling students, busy professionals, and aging adults alike.

There are seven key cognitive skills needed to learn, think, and remember; the skills needed to process information before it’s stored. Brain training is like personal training—but for the mind instead of the body. It strengthens core cognitive skills such as:

Memory
Attention
Processing speed
Problem-solving
Auditory and visual processing

As a LearningRx franchisee, you won’t just be running a business—you’ll be transforming lives by equipping learners with real, impactful brain skills.

How Does Brain Training Work?

Brain training works through structured, engaging (and fun!) exercises that challenge the brain to grow stronger. The key to its success is one-on-one training, which keeps learners engaged and ensures maximum cognitive development.
