How To Tell If Your Child Is A Visual Learner
As parents, we have a vested interest in understanding the nuances of left and right-brain thinking. A child’s ability to learn is directly affected by the way their brain sees and processes information. Knowing if your child is an auditory, visual or kinesthetic learner will enable you to choose activities that support their learning needs, while working to develop their weaker areas.

ADD and ADHD: Visual Learners Being Misdiagnosed
After a long summer filled with a variety of activities, it’s time for kids to head back to the classroom. Unfortunately, for many kids this means a lot of time sitting in chairs and listening.

It extremely important to find out what’s distracting them, but rest assured, it may have nothing to do with ADD.
