LearningRx Announces National Brain Training Contest Winner
Aug 11, 2020
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., Aug. 12, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- LearningRx Brain Training (www.LearningRx.com), the largest personal brain training company in the world, has announced that Elizabeth Benedict, an English as a Second Language (ESL) teacher, has been named the winner of the company's 13th annual contest.
Each year, LearningRx hosts a nationwide competition among its graduates to determine which students have experienced the greatest cognitive skill gains after completing personal brain training. Benedict's video submission wowed the judges and earned her the title of national winner.

"I had been a teacher for more than 20 years," Benedict explains. "Until recently, it was hard for me to read, pay attention, and comprehend information. To compensate, I would spend hours attempting to read and re-read lesson plans before teaching class. I felt hopeless and alone but I was determined to get help so I could become a better teacher and become a better me."
After completing her personal brain training program with LearningRx, Benedict started doing reading groups with friends again and said she wasn't afraid to try new things. "As everyone knows, we had to do online learning this year," says Benedict. "In the past, I would have spent countless hours trying to figure it out on my own. But I reached out to others for help. And a friend of mine said that I was talking more in meetings, following conversations, and using analogies that I wouldn't have used [before LearningRx]."
Benedict says that she now feels smart and hopeful. "I'm thriving and my students are thriving!" says Benedict. "My future is full of hope and enjoyment. I am so grateful to this [brain training] program. It's really changed the trajectory of my future. I no longer feel like a caterpillar that's stuck on a leaf. I feel like a butterfly that's been released from captivity."
