Summary:
Every child learns in unique ways, and understanding how your child takes in and processes information is key to supporting their success. This interactive workshop is designed for parents and caregivers of secondary school students who want to better understand their child’s learning profile.
Together, we will explore how attention, memory, and language shape a student’s ability to read, write, and learn effectively. You’ll gain practical insights into why some children struggle with certain tasks and how to recognize the specific points where learning may break down.
Most importantly, you’ll leave with strategies you can use at home to support homework and study time.
