Student of the Year Finalist in National Contest Isnt Afraid to Try New Things After Brain Training

Colorado Springs, CO, July 20, 2016 (Newswire.com) - A local 12-year-old named Louie has been named one of five finalists in LearningRx’s national competition celebrating the top brain training results across the country. Louie’s parents enrolled him in personal brain training after they noticed he was having trouble with short-term and long-term memory, and had anxiety when facing anything new that was out of his comfort zone.”

Louie’s father says one of the biggest changes in Louie since completing LearningRx’s one-on-one brain training program is his self-confidence. “Prior to LearningRx, he would almost freeze for fear of making a mistake or … looking foolish.” Now Louie isn’t afraid to try new things. Louie says he can remember more since completing LearningRx. “Louie’s skills have always been there,” says him Mom. “But he was afraid. He wouldn’t push through the hard things. To see him now look at the world differently, as a plate of opportunities instead of obstacles he seeks to avoid, is awesome.”
