Specific Types of Learning Disabilities

Reading Difficulty (Dyslexia): 

  • Dyslexia, normal or above normal intelligence, any sensory, physical, mental difficulties; It is a difficulty that causes inadequacy in one or more of the areas of reading, writing, mathematics, self-expression, thinking, orienting in time and space.

  • In addition to the marked weakness in the left hand, the slowness of the right hand draws attention. However, as age increases and motor performance is visually supported, those with dyslexia were found to be more proficient in some motor tasks.

  • They lack perspective and may have bigger problems when painting a bike or clock.

  • They confuse the terms up-down and right-left.

  • Late onset of speech, slow development of speech and inability to gain a full expression ability, clumsiness and defects in fine motor movements, difficulty in establishing hand dominance are in question.

  • Array memory has latency (such as counting the alphabet, months, days of the week) and visual memory sorting issues.

  • It is important that high intelligence, early recognition of problems, positive personality, intensive education and training, and stimulating environment are important. Using more than one language at home can be a disadvantage. Frequent school changes are also an important negative factor.

  • Reading problems improve with age; but they always lag behind their peers.

  • Many of them are quite unsuccessful in academic terms, but in the future, with special education, the ability to read correctly improves considerably.

Written Expression Difficulty (Dysgraphia)

  • Dysgraphia is a specific learning disability that affects how quickly children acquire written language and how well they can use written language to express their thoughts.

  • In dysgraphia, the mechanics of writing are disrupted; It can often be seen in the form of holding a wrong pencil and creating wrong letters.

  • Differential diagnosis includes attention problems such as short attention span and distraction, psychiatric problems such as inability to give oneself enough, school phobia and role playing. There are various forms of dysgraphia in children.
