- Specific Learning Disorder
Specific Learning Disorders affect the ability to acquire and apply academic skills in reading, writing, or mathematics despite adequate intelligence and opportunity. These challenges are often misunderstood as lack of effort or motivation, leading to frustration and decreased confidence. A comprehensive evaluation identifies the underlying processing difficulties and provides a clear roadmap for intervention.
Who This Is For
- Difficulty learning to read, write, or perform math
- Slow progress despite tutoring or support
- Avoidance of academic tasks
- Inconsistent academic performance
- Concerns raised by teachers or school
- Students struggling to meet grade-level expectations
What the Evaluation Includes
- Cognitive assessment (reasoning, memory, processing)
- Academic achievement testing (reading, writing, math)
- Processing measures (phonological processing, working memory, etc.)
- Review of school history and performance
- Behavioral and emotional considerations
