What is spot diagnosis, and how does it work?

Spot diagnosis is a tool we provide to help educators and caregivers identify early signs of SLDs and ADHD. It is a simple, preliminary screening tool that suggests when further professional evaluation may be necessary.

How do I know if my child has a learning disability?

If you notice your child struggling with tasks such as reading, writing, or math, or if they exhibit unusual behavior, they may have an SLD or ADHD for more than 6 months. Our spot diagnosis tools can help you identify potential issues, but we recommend seeking a professional assessment for a definitive diagnosis.

How can I tell if my child’s struggles in school are due to a learning disability or something else?

Learning disabilities often manifest as consistent difficulties in specific areas like reading, writing, or math, despite normal intelligence. Behavioral signs may include frustration, avoiding schoolwork, or trouble focusing. While our spot diagnosis tools can help identify potential issues, we recommend seeking a comprehensive evaluation from a specialist for an accurate diagnosis.

What should I do if my child is diagnosed with a learning disability?

If your child is diagnosed with a learning disability, it's important to create a supportive environment both at home and in school. Work with their teachers to develop an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) and consider enrolling in our programs for additional strategies and resources to support your child's learning. Our courses equip teachers with the knowledge and skills that enable them to support interventions

Are your programs suitable for children with more severe disabilities?

We provide parents with the tools and strategies they need to effectively teach and support their children with learning disabilities at home.

How can I advocate for my child’s needs at school?

How do I know if the interventions are working?
