What Are Learning Disabilities?

Learning Disabilities (LDs) are neurological differences that affect how a child receives, processes, or expresses information. They are not related to intelligence—many children with LDs are bright and capable—but they learn in ways that differ from traditional teaching methods.

Common types of LD include:

  • Dyslexia: Difficulty with reading, spelling, and decoding words
  • Dyscalculia: Challenges with math concepts and number sense
  • Dysgraphia: Trouble with handwriting, spelling, and written expression

Children with LDs may also struggle with attention, memory, time management, and executive functioning skills.

Quick Facts:

  • Affects 5–15% of school-aged children
  • Early signs include trouble with reading, writing, or following directions
  • Early intervention and specialized instruction lead to the best outcomes
