Understanding Learning Difficulties In Kids & Teens.
Signs of a learning difficulty may appear early, though they often become clearer once a child starts school. These can include:
- Trouble reading, spelling or understanding written text
- Difficulty with writing tasks or expressing thoughts on paper
- Struggles with maths concepts or number skills
- Problems following multi-step instructions
- Avoiding schoolwork due to frustration or low confidence
A learning difficulty does not mean a child is lazy or unmotivated. It means their brain processes information differently. With tailored support, children can develop strategies that work for them.
