Many teachers and parents are well aware of the difficulties some children of
normal to superior intelligence experience in trying to learn to read, write,
and spell or to express themselves in speech and writing. Often a student's
motivation and desire to learn are strong, but if the difficulties go
untreated, the child usually falls behind in academic achievement resulting
in loss of self-image and emotional distress. A loss of self-confidence and
experience of failure can change personality and alter negatively the course
of life for SLD children. Their potential for intellectual advancement and
successful achievement in careers are blocked by inadequate command of the
language skills needed for independent learning.
It is my desire as an educator to help each child with such learning
differences to reach their full potential. Through educational therapy and
intervention techniques, students can learn to be successful in the classroom
and the community.
