[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”font18 regular roboto center black lineheight24″]Generally, learning difficulties affect reading, writing and spelling. These challenges are language based. Learning difficulties can, however, also affect math abilities and social skills.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1563292776590{background-image: url(\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Groupe-584.png?id=1719) !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}” el_class=”marginblocPRDHomepage padding50T padding55B padding230x”][vc_column][vc_column_text el_class=”font18 regular roboto center black lineheight24 padd5TopM nobrmobile”]Learning difficulties can appear at any moment during schooling.<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”font18 regular roboto center black lineheight24″]These difficulties are not related to intellectual potential, however, learning difficulties often impact self-esteem as well.

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”font18 regular center roboto black lineheight24″]Learning difficulties are generally identified in early school years. However, these difficulties come from an atypical neuronal connection which is present at birth. Depending on the severity, these difficulties present themselves as early as preschool age or in upper school years. The term learning difficulties is often confused with dyslexia because language difficulties affect reading and writing. However, the challenges associated with learning difficulties tend to go beyond simply reading difficulties, which is why learning difficulties is a better term.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row el_class=”padding230x marginblocPRDHomepage”][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”2911″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” el_class=”fullwidthimg padding20R”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text el_class=”font18 regular roboto stylelist black lineheight22″]<\/p>\n
\n- Difficulties in reading comprehension<\/li>\n
- Difficulties in telling time<\/li>\n
- Difficulty memorizing multiplication tables, division tables, etc.<\/li>\n
- When the child expresses himself, the words sometimes come more difficult to him. These may be words “on the tip of the tongue” or the frequent use of vague words.<\/li>\n
- Difficulty learning new words, whether their exact meaning or spelling<\/li>\n
- Understanding questions with more abstract concepts (often used in mathematics)<\/li>\n
- Remember the details of a story or instructions given orally by the teacher<\/li>\n
- Learn the correspondences between sounds and letters<\/li>\n
- Difficulties with spelling, grammar and syntax (for words and sentences).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

How do I support my child with learning difficulties?<\/h2>\n

It is possible then to put in place an action plan and targeted objectives in collaboration with the school team and the family.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text el_class=”font18 regular roboto black padding20left lineheight22″]Through consistent intervention the child learns from explicit teaching and goal-oriented language abilities. They also acquire important strategies to aid them in becoming more independent in their schoolwork. At the Centre Mosa\u00efque de Qu\u00e9bec, we believe in working in collaboration with the school environment. This often means communicating frequently with the teachers and resources people at the school in order to ensure carryover of techniques and strategies learned in clinic.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row el_class=”marginblocPRDHomepage”][vc_column el_class=”fullwidthimg”][vc_single_image image=”115″ img_size=”full” el_class=”padding80B nomobile”][vc_row_inner el_class=”posblocwhite2 marginblocPRDHomepage”][vc_column_inner width=”2\/12″][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”8\/12″][vc_column_text el_class=”font18 regular roboto center black padding90x bgwhite lineheight22 padding80B”]<\/p>\n
