EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT VERBAL AND NON-VERBAL LEARNING DISABILITIES
• "LEARNING DISABILITIES" IS AN UMBRELLA TERM, USED TO DESCRIBE AN ARRAY OF SPECIFIC LEARNING DISABILITIES, SUCH AS DYSLEXIA OR AUDITORY PROCESSING DISORDER. THESE DISABILITIES CAUSE NEUROLOGICALLY-BASED PROCESSING ISSUES THAT INTERFERE WITH AN INDIVIDUAL'S ABILITY TO DEVELOP HIGHER-LEVEL SKILLS. • GENERALLY SPEAKING, INDIVIDUALS WHO SHOWCASE LEARNING DISABILITIES ARE OF AVERAGE OR EVEN ABOVE AVERAGE INTELLIGENCE. THAT IS WHY IT'S CRITICAL AS A PARENT TO HELP YOUR CHILD BRIDGE THE GAP BETWEEN THEIR TRUE POTENTIAL AND ACTUAL LEVEL OF ACHIEVEMENT.
• LEARNING DISABILITIES ARE TYPICALLY ASSOCIATED WITH VERBAL SKILLS, SUCH AS READING AND WRITING. HOWEVER, IF YOUR CHILD HAS STRONG VERBAL SKILLS, YET APPEARS TO STRUGGLE IN OTHER KEY AREAS, PARTICULARLY THOSE INVOLVING COMPREHENSION AND SOCIAL CUES, THEIR CHALLENGES MAY BE RELATED TO A NON-VERBAL LEARNING DISABILITY.
• UNDERSTANDING THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THESE TWO LEARNING DISABILITIES CAN HELP YOU ENSURE THAT YOUR CHILD'S UNIQUE NEEDS ARE MET, SO THAT THEY CAN EXERCISE THEIR STRENGTHS AND IN TURN, EXCEL.
VERBAL VS NON-VERBAL LEARNING DISABILITIES • ISSUES WITH READING AND WRITING ARE TYPICALLY RECOGNIZED AND IDENTIFIED WHEN A CHILD GOES TO SCHOOL, AS THE SYMPTOMS OF VERBAL LEARNING DISABILITIES ARE MORE APPARENT.
• HOWEVER, NON-VERBAL LEARNING DISABILITIES ARE OFTEN UNDER- OR MISDIAGNOSED. THIS IS BECAUSE IN A CHILD'S EARLY YEARS, READING ABILITY TENDS TO BE THE MAIN INDICATOR OF ACADEMIC SUCCESS AND PROGRESS — AND IN SOME CASES, CHILDREN WITH A NON-VERBAL LEARNING DISABILITY DISPLAY SUPERIOR VERBAL ABILITIES.
• NON-VERBAL LEARNING DISABILITIES ARE OFTEN THOSE THAT DESCRIBE A CLUSTER OF CHALLENGES AND DEFICITS, MOST OFTEN ASSOCIATED WITH NON-LANGUAGE AREAS. IN THIS CASE, ISSUES WITH MATHEMATICS MAY APPEAR EARLY ON. ISSUES REGARDING NON-LINGUISTIC ASPECTS OF COMMUNICATION, INCLUDING FACIAL EXPRESSIONS, BODY LANGUAGE, AND TONE OF VOICE ARE ALSO OFTEN DEMONSTRATED.
