Introduction
Learning disabilities are neurologically-based processing problems.
These processing problems can interfere with learning basic skills such as reading,
writing and/or math. They can also interfere with higher level skills such as
organization, time planning, abstract reasoning, long or short term memory and
attention. It is important to realize that learning disabilities can affect an
individuals life beyond academics and can impact relationships with family,
friends and in the workplace.

writing, spelling, and sometimes speech and can exist along with other
related disorders. Dyslexia is sometimes referred to as a Language-Based
Learning Disability.
Education of Dyslexic Children (Role of the Teacher): With proper help,
many people with dyslexia can learn to read and write well. Early
identification and treatment is the key to helping dyslexic achieve in school
and in life. The following are some of the assistance that the teacher can
extend for the dyslexic students in the class:
1. Help the dyslexic students discover their personal learning style
(auditory, visual or kinesthetic) and teach them how to use their strongest
sense to process information and perform new skills with greater
understanding.
2. Adopt a systematic, explicit, multi-sensory method that involves several
senses (hearing, seeing, touching) at the same time.
3. Utilize demonstrations, observations, and experimentations. Expand
lessons beyond visual and auditory learning. Incorporate kinetic or
sensory learning experiences. Provide hands-on learning activities.

Conclusion
A learning disability is not a disorder that a student outgrows. It
is a permanent disorder affecting how students with normal or aboveaverage intelligence process incoming information, outgoing information,
and/or categorization of information in memo. Learning disabilities should
not be equated with intellectual disabilities or psychiatric disabilities,
