Does your child have trouble concentrating in class or act out for no apparent reason? Does she struggle to accomplish basic tasks or have trouble changing from task to task? Does he lack coordination, fatigue easily, or is he accident prone? Believe it or not, these can all be red flags indicating a larger problem that is making it hard for your child to learn. Since signs and symptoms of learning difficulties and differences often look similar, or even harmless, proper diagnosis and treatment by an occupational therapist might be critical to your child's success.

Many factors work together to enable a student to receive, process and produce at school. If one area is delayed in development, it can interfere with the whole process of learning. If your child appears not to hear you, but you have had his hearing checked, then maybe he hasan auditory processingproblem. If your child has difficulty reading body language or maintaining eye contact, then she may not understand the pragmatics, or social part of language. If you see signs of tension during your child's recitation or out-loud reading, or if stuttering runs in your family, then your child may need fluency therapy. Summit now offers on-campus comprehensive speech/language evaluations and speech therapy with Laura L. Cronin, MS, CCC/SLP, our speech therapist. Laura L.
