Students who have difficulties with learning may sometimes experience stress and anxiety when they are not made to feel welcome or safe in their environment. Whether it’s pressure from peers, parents or teachers – the feeling can be overwhelming for someone going through a tough time. Teachers encourage students and show compassion as much as possible, but oftentimes there isn’t enough energy to provide extra support after dealing with classroom disruptions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When children develop, most of them experience some kind of learning difficulties along the way. Many children may struggle in school with some topics or skills from time to time. When children try hard and still struggle with a specific set of skills over time, it could be a sign of a learning difficulty or a learning disorder<\/strong>. Having a learning disorder means that a child has difficulty in one or more areas of learning, even when overall intelligence or motivation is not affected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Detecting a learning disorder by itself requires that a child has had adequate access to learning opportunities. Especially these days – when learning of many children has been disrupted due to COVID-19 – quite a variety of children require additional supports to continue to progress on reading, writing and spelling, and math.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Then how do we differentiate<\/strong> between learning delays and learning difficulties\/disorders? The clue lies in for example genetic factors. For example, a learning disorder such as dyslexia often runs in families. So whether a child has had adequate access to learning might not apply when one of their parents or grandparents was diagnosed with a learning disability or has been experiencing tremendous learning difficulties now and in the past.<\/p>\n\n\n\nLearning Disorder vs Learning Difficulties<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
