HI, My name is Sandy Cook, and I’m the creator of Learning Abled Kids. I’ve helped hundreds of moms and teachers find learning success for their kids. I’m also an Instructional Designer, Learning Solutions Architect, Special Education Advocate, and a veteran Homeschooling Mom.

In addition to my degree and consulting, I’ve acquired a LOT of knowledge about how to help kids overcome learning struggles. I’m honored to help you and our child too.

4 Keys to learning success you’ll want to LOOK FOR to help overcome your child’s ADHD, Aspergers, Dyslexia, and other LDs:

1st Key

Look for information specific to your child’s specific learning disability. It’s critical to understand the neurological issues your child has, so you can work effectively with your child. This information will also help you separate your child’s disability related behaviors from ordinary childhood behaviors. Understanding the difference is important when it comes to both discipline and education.

2nd Key

Look for information about your child’s learning style(s). Learning styles show the best WAY to teach your child. Teaching by your child’s learning style can make both teaching and learning more effective. You won’t have to repeat yourself as much. Learning will also be more FUN for your child!

3rd Key

Pay attention to the teaching methods and programs that are most effective for helping your child. There are numerous programs listed on the Learning Abled Kids website that are proven to work for ADHD, aspergers, dyslexia and various learning disabilities. Try to combine teaching based on your child’s learning style with proven programs. By doing that, you’ll have the beginning of a recipe for educational success. 😉

4th Key

Look for assistive technologies that can improve your child’s access to educational information. For example, if your child can’t yet read, then audiobooks, text-to-speech and speech-to-text tools are important. They will help you teach and reach your child.

Here are Three Paths you can take to meet your child’s ADHD, Aspergers, Dyslexia, or other LD needs, and avoid retention for your child:

1) ADVOCATE:

Seek the learning support your child needs. Use the IDEA Laws to make sure your child’s school provides an appropriate education. Research shows that being held back does LITTLE to address a child’s ADHD, Aspergers, dyslexia and other LDs. Therefore, if your child is in public school on an IEP or EIP, you might find it helpful to go through the Free IEP Training here on Learning Abled Kids.

(By the way, did you know grade retention is proven by research to be INEFFECTIVE? It doesn’t help most children, and continuing to move forward is PROVEN to be more effective. 😉 ).

2) ADVOCATE & EDUCATE:

You can hire private providers to fill in learning gaps to keep your child from being held back. Those providers might be tutors, therapists, learning coaches, private schools, etc. Even if you take the private, paid route for educating your child, you’ll still serve as an advocate for your child. Your child can make great educational progress IF the programs are provided properly. Therefore, you’ll also want to understand the programs your child needs. It will help you advocate more effectively for your child if you go through the steps to understand your child’s ADHD, Aspergers, Dyslexia, and other LDs.

3) EDUCATE:

You can teach your child (it isn’t as difficult as you may think). When you have the right information and proven programs, you CAN effectively educate your child at home. If you have major doubts, reading Overcome Your Fear of Homeschooling will help a lot. You can homeschool around learning disabilities, just like lots of other moms have done, including US! It is NOT as hard as it might seem. It doesn’t matter if your child has ADHD, Aspergers, Dyslexia, or other LDs, you can teach your child.

I have followed all three paths. We did end up having to school our boys ourselves. I went through the Georgia Advocacy Office’s Parent Leadership Support Program to learn about special education advocacy. I advocated at my child’s school. We hired professionals to provide instruction I didn’t think I could handle. Ultimately I ended up teaching my boys myself in spite of their ADHD, dyslexia, dysgraphia, executive dysfunction, and more.

YOU CAN TEACH YOUR CHILD!

Your child may be struggling with dyslexia (reading decoding), dysgraphia (writing and written expression), and/or have dyscalculia (math facts and math reasoning). It can be frustrating. It’s scary when you think about the long-term issues your child may have if he never learns the basics. I have been there and I have worried that!

If you’d like to know more about why we pulled our boys out of school, read our story of how we overcame learning disabilities through homeschooling. I helped my sons overcome their adhd, dyslexia and learning disabilities by designing well-planned, individualized education programs. Although our results are not typical, I am fully confident your child can learn when provided carefully chosen, one-on-one instruction.
