Margdarsi's Approach
What is our Approach to SLDs.
-
Early intervention can reduce the effect & can develop ways to cope up with Specific Learning Disabilities.
-
There are no prescription medicines to cure learning disability.
-
The children affected by Specific learning disability can be managed effectively by proper rehabilitation.
-
A professional team consisting of clinical psychologists, special educators, audiologist and speech-language pathologists have to work with the specific disorders of the child to provide relief.
The Model Centre of Children with Special Needs (MCCWSN) is a response of Margdarsi to find a solution for Childhood disorders that cause disability. Our experts help to build on the child’s strengths and finding ways to compensate for the child’s weaknesses.
MCCWSN provides varieties of rehabilitation therapies to reduce SLD effects.
These include:
1. Occupational Therapy
2. Educational Therapy
3. Speech Therapy
4. Social Integration Therapy
5. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
6. Recreational Therapy: Art, Craft, Dance, Music
7. Biomedical Intervention
Our interventions vary depending on the nature and extent of the disability. We provide the least restrictive environment to a child for appropriate results. This means the teaching environment meets a child’s needs and skills while minimizing restrictions to typical learning experiences.
About Specific Learning Disability
What is Specific Learning Disability?
If your child struggles with listening, speaking, reading, writing, spelling, or math, take note of the specific issues you see. These can be the signs of Special Learning Disability (SLD).
A specific learning disability is a disorder that interferes with a student’s ability to listen, think, speak, write, spell, or do mathematical calculations.
If Specific Learning Disability is not identified early and managed, may result in the lifelong problem. These problems may increase risk of greater psychological distress, poorer mental health, dropping out of school and unemployment.
