cognitive skills training

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — LearningRx (www.LearningRx.com), the largest one-on-one brain training company in the world, was featured in BOSS Magazine’s article, “The Year in Franchising.” The piece focuses on a variety of businesses that attempted to navigate changes brought on by the pandemic and includes a quote from LearningRx CEO Kim Hanson.

The article touches on LearningRx being named to Franchise Business Review’s “Top Education Franchises in High Demand During a Pandemic” due to the company’s focus on helping students avoid falling behind this academic school year.

“One of the reasons we’ve managed to thrive during the pandemic is because our brain training programs can also be done virtually,” explains Hanson. “LearningRx clients can choose to complete sessions in person at a LearningRx Brain Training Center or online. The online option allows clients to train from the comfort of their own home while still receiving the benefits of one-on-one brain training. By targeting and training weak brain skills—such as memory, attention, and auditory processing—our programs help strengthen the root cause of learning struggles to make learning faster and easier in any subject.”

To help determine why a student struggles, families can schedule a Cognitive Skills Assessment. If the results determine weak cognitive skills, a personalized brain training program may help strengthen the foundational cognitive skills to make learning (and life) easier.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — LearningRx (www.LearningRx.com), the largest one-on-one brain training company in the world, has made Franchise Business Review’s list of “Top Education Franchises in High Demand During a Pandemic.”

According to the publication, education franchises are providing a valuable service during the coronavirus pandemic as many parents try to balance working and school requirements. “As more people head back to the office as businesses slowly reopen, the demand for educational support during the pandemic is greater than ever,” reports Franchise Business Review. “Franchises that fill that need by providing instructional support, childcare services, and youth recreational programs are seeing a sharp uptick.”

LearningRx one-on-one brain training and the other franchises listed were given high satisfaction ratings by current franchise owners in key areas like training and support, leadership, core values, and financial opportunity, on independent franchisee surveys.

“One of the big questions we get right now is regarding the difference between tutoring and personal brain training,” says LearningRx CEO Kim Hanson. “Although both can help students who are struggling, they provide different solutions to different problems. Tutoring is delivers material that was missed the first time. For example, if your child is a strong learner but is behind in school due to an extended absence, tutoring can help them catch up on the material they missed. LearningRx’s one-on-one brain training is designed to help improve the weak cognitive skills that help enhance learning in any subject. Our programs target and train the weak brain skills—such as memory, processing speed, and attention—to strengthen the root cause of learning struggles.”

Students who continue to struggle with reading, comprehension, or in multiple subjects, or who need to work harder or longer than their peers to complete homework or achieve good grades, may have one or more weak cognitive skills. To help determine why a student struggles, families can schedule a Cognitive Skills Assessment. If the results determine weak cognitive skills, a personalized brain training program may help strengthen their cognitive skills to make learning (and life) easier.

The Education-Based Franchise to Open First Testing and Training Center in Richmond Hill.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — LearningRx One-on-One Brain Training (www.LearningRx.com), the largest personal brain training company in the world, has opened its first Center in Canada. Franchising since 2003, the company’s brain training centers have served more than 100,000 families and completed more than 6,000,000 brain training sessions to date.

LearningRx is best known for the cognitive improvements its programs provide to people who struggle with ADHD and attention issues, dyslexia and reading challenges, and other brain-based differences related to math, memory, and traumatic brain injury.

The first Center in Canada will be owned and operated by husband-and-wife team Khai Woo and Jeri Situ. Woo, a mechanical engineer who taught high school math and technology, sees the LearningRx franchise as an opportunity to continue his work educating youth. Situ, a financial advisor and experienced franchisee, says LearningRx provides a means for the couple to work for themselves, help their community, and invest in a franchise system with a proven track record of financial success.

“More than 80% of learning challenges are caused by one or more weak brain skills,” says Situ. “These are hidden weaknesses that most people don’t know they have. LearningRx has helped clients ages 5 to 95 by sharpening their cognitive skills to help them think faster, learn easier, and perform better.”

The disruption of COVID-19 has left many professionals reexamining their careers and life-long goals. Many educational and business professionals are exploring franchise opportunities for the chance to leave corporate careers behind and work for themselves. LearningRx is meeting the need for potential franchisees. Natalie Speakman, Director of Development for the LearningRx franchise reports, “Our proven business model serves two primary purposes: it allows franchisees to positively change lives for a living and it’s a system that aligns with our corporate goal — to deliver a service that makes learning easier and faster for the clients we serve every day.” 

“With the substantial learning loss students are expected to experience due to their extended absence from one-on-one classroom learning, families are eager to find ways to boost the underlying cognitive skills that make learning easier,” says Woo. “This community—from the schools and neighborhoods to the teachers’ federation and churches we both attend—has been part of our growth, prosperity and livelihood for years. Now it’s time to return the favor.”
