Definition

Specific Learning Disorder is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by persistent difficulties in learning and using academic skills. These difficulties manifest in areas such as reading, writing, or mathematics, and are not attributable to intellectual disabilities, sensory impairments, or inadequate educational opportunities. It affects an individual's ability to process and comprehend information, leading to difficulties in reading, writing, math, or other cognitive skills essential for academic performance. These disabilities are lifelong conditions that can vary in severity and often require specialized teaching methods and accommodations to support learning.
