Students who have specific learning difficulties such as dyslexia, dyspraxia, dyscalculia, as well as autism and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) can face many challenges whilst studying.
A learning needs assessment will help to identify effective tools, strategies and support through a thorough assessment using robust tools and knowledge. Working with the student, the assessor will explain and demonstrate a range of tools and support strategies, including coaching or tuition as well as assistive technology software or equipment. Some of these can incur costs, although some technological strategies are free or low cost.
A detailed report will be compiled, describing the recommended strategies and how these will benefit the student’s learning. Cymorth Addysg can also provide training in how to use suggested software and provide any coaching or tuition which would aid the student to develop effective study skills strategies.
