How to Do a Learning Disability Assessment
Get a basic understanding of how to do a learning disability assessment. The first step to take is to diagnose each individual system to find out why learning isn’t happening as it should be.
I check for the following information:
- Visual memory
- dominance (left or right brain)
- Dominant eye, hand, and foot
- Verbal skills
- Auditory skills
- Kinesthetic or tactile skills
- Eye/hand coordination
- Fine motor skills
You will get a clear picture of the child as a whole after a proper diagnostic session. You will now where to start working and which area needs the most work. alowing you to work on the most important parts first It’s really very simple.
All kids are different. However this is the most common picture of learning disabilities:
- Above grade level vocabulary
- Extremely poor visual memory abilities
- Right brain dominant
- Poor visual, auditory, and kinesthetic skills
- Extremely poor visual memory abilities
- Tendencies toward dyslexia (many reversals)
- High verbal skills
Although this is not a medically described syndrome it is a very common combination that is typical in many of todays children. I call this a “syndrome” because I see it so often. But, keep this in mind. This is indeed a common “syndrome”, and your child may or may not have all of the symptoms of this “syndrome”, but by using neuro-sensory training techniques, every student has shown tremendous improvement academically, to the point where learning becomes independent.
Your child may have some or more of these symptoms. If so they are interfering with learning and by taking each learning system and strengthening it, exercising it daily like an athlete preparing for a marathon, you, too, can walk your child through the confusing learning maze and end up a winner at the finish line:
- An end to homework battles
- More time for family activities
- Honor Roll
- Reading, Math, and Spelling grades that make you proud
- A child who wants to go to school
- A child with self –confidence
Learning disability assessment do not have to be expensive. You can do much of it yourself and be able to help your child at home. You don’t need to pay a fortune to find out what is preventing your child from succeeding in school. The diagnostic test forms are available for parents to use with their own children at home, saving hundreds and thousands of dollars for a diagnosis that gives you a blueprint on how to go about correcting any learning issues that exist.
