Learning disabilities affect how a person learns new things at any time in his life, not just during the school period. In the following article you can find out how learning disabilities can affect people and who can help.
Learning disabilities affect how information is understood and how it communicates with the environment. About 1.5 million people in Britain suffer from a learning disability.
This means that they have difficulty in one or more of the following:
- Understand new or complex information.
- Learn new skills.
- Self-reliance.
"In general terms, we mean learning disabilities that a child's ability to learn, understand and communicate is more difficult than that of peers," says Leslie Campbell of the Society for Learning Disabilities.
