How to Identify a Learning Challenge? And What Are The Causes?

We have very little knowledge about student learning processes and their struggles since we only get a glimpse when assessing students’ performances on tests. That is why these challenges are often called “hidden.”

It is not clear what causes learning difficulties, yet researchers believe genetic influences, brain development, and environmental factors have an impact.

If your child struggles in the following situations it may suggest they are dealing with a learning challenge:

• If they find homework to be a constant struggle

• Schoolwork takes longer for them than for other kids

• Having difficulty organizing spoken and written sentences

• They are falling behind their class

• They have many spelling mistakes

• Stressful with a headache or stomach ache before every test

• Have trouble following instructions

• Low self-esteem and the belief they are stupid

If you find one or more of these to resemble your child’s behavior, it’s time to seek more help for your child before it will go on affecting the rest of their lives.

Removing the Barriers, Solving the Problem

How to help a child with reading difficulties? The key to eliminating learning challenges is to identify the causes. After that, solutions can be offered and a program can be designed to assist the student to overcome his challenge.

In the program, different methods can be helpful and you must observe and study your child’s learning process to understand how he can achieve better learning. The solutions can be private lessons from a specialized instructor, occupational therapy, or assistive technology like the OrCam Learn, an advanced AI device that helps the student read and absorb knowledge while tracking their academic progress.

With a newly designed program and your support, your child can improve immensely in their studies within a few weeks. This will be the start of a new beginning for them, a journey to success and self-believing.
