Dyslexia & Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder

What Is Dyslexia?

Dyslexia is a learning disorder which impacts reading, writing, and spelling. It has nothing to do with smartness; those suffering from it can be of varied IQ levels. Additionally, Dyspraxia (imbalance in coordination), Dyscalculia (difficulty in calculations), and Attention Deficit are issues related to being disoriented, wherein ears and eyes experience difficulty perceiving correctly. All these challenges stem from a sense of distortion or lack of equilibrium.

What is ADHD?

Those who have difficulty paying attention, act impulsively without considering the consequences, or seem to always be in motion with difficulty controlling their behavior could likely have Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). There are various signs and symptoms depending on the person's environment - be it school, playground, home, office, etc. - and it is important to properly diagnose ADHD as the behavior of an individual can stem from a number of causes.

Some of the problems faced by such children and adults are listed below:

  • Learning – Having trouble retaining information after learning
  • Reading – Inability to comprehend reading material, inability to follow semantic rules, inability to understand phonic rules.
  • Writing – Writing at a slow pace, omitting words or letters, reversing letters, being confused with letters, and trouble with written material in general.
  • Arithmetic – Reversal of numbers, inability to apply place value, inability to understand arithmetic terms.
  • Intellectual skills growth – A weak memory and poor exam skills.

My child was with Ms Vimla in Mind Skills Development Centre. During his period my son picked up on vocabulary, reading, writing and interacting with other kids. He improved a lot by the time he was school ready. She has been a mother to my child and her teaching style and method are impeccable. She uses various methods to develop a child and improve a child's cognition skills. Her doodle, drama and phonics class was amazing. My child is progressing today because of her.

Vimla Mam's class helped me because she told me to make things out of clay which improved my focus and always told me to check my tools. Her methodology helped me a lot in improving my subjects and now I can score better on my exam. Thank you very much Vimla Mam for all your support.

I noticed that my daughter is now a lot more confident and believes in herself. She gets her work done faster and there is a lot of change in her attitude towards her academic work. Challenging tasks are not a worrying factor. She assured me that she will do it. I’m really happy we found you and enrolled her into this program. She even seems happier as a person!

I had a fun time learning with Vimla Mam. She taught me how to read, write and syllabification of words and I also learnt the clay modelling method with her. It helped me in my further studies. You are such an amazing teacher who always motivated me. My teachers at school have noticed positive differences in my performance too. Thank you Vimla Mam.
