Learning Disability Testing

Learning Assessments

 

A learning disability is determined when a person has a learning function (such as reading and math) that is significantly below average compared to the general population.

A learning disability, learning disorder, or learning difficulty is characterized by difficulties comprehending or processing information and can be caused by several different factors. An assessment can assist in creating learning plans at school.
