Learning Disabilities

learning disabilities (LD) are neurological disorders that often impede the ability for individuals, adolescent or adult, to acquire academic skills and interact socially. Some people mistakenly think LD is the result of laziness or low intelligence, but this couldn't be further from the truth. In addition, terms learning disability and learning disorder are often used interchangeably, but they are quite different. Learning disorder is an official clinical diagnosis, as determined by a professional (doctor, psychologist, etc.) Learning disability describes a group of disorders what are characterized by underdevelopment of specific language, speech and academic skills. Dyslexia, for example, is a common reading disability, characterized by difficulty with learning to read fluently and with accurate comprehension despite normal, or above normal intelligence.
