Have you noticed your child lacking behind in his school compared to peers? Does he have difficulty in solving simple math’s equations? Does she fumble with words or has particular dislike to writing?

Special education provides a range of services tailored to fit the learning styles of every individual child. It focuses on using their strengths to improve areas that they are having difficulty with. It provides them resources needed to enhance their learning. It is a customized instructional program targeted at integrating the child according to his needs when the learning needs cannot be met by a standard school curriculum.

Special educators curate lessons based on the unique capabilities of the child and provide a safe environment for the students to learn in. For example, visually impaired children may require reading materials in large print or braille; Hearing impaired children may need auditory training, lip reading, etc.

Usually the family, school, special educators and other healthcare providers make a collaborative approach to best develop the necessary academic skills in the child. They are the child’s best advocate in the school setting.

Special education plays an important role in providing your little one with the tools necessary for making learning engaging and fun!
