Learning Disabilities: There Is a Cure, A guide for Parents, Educators and Physicians
For years educators have been taught that learning disabled students, that is, students with an average to superior IQ but with serious learning skill deficiencies, were not able to learn like other children. Addie Cusimano in her book Learning Disabilities: There is a Cure shares her findings on how students with learning disabilities, ADD or ADHD, can be taught to overcome their learning deficiencies. She describes her findings in regard to the teaching of reading, writing, mathematics, foreign languages, thinking and study skills, and, most importantly, the development of the basic learning skills of visual and auditory perception and memory. She discusses how weaknesses in these areas affect students’ ability to learn just like any other child and offers a multitude of techniques to help students overcome their deficiencies. Her preface is that learning disabled students can and should be cured at an elementary level, and that the best approach for all students would be one that incorporates more facets of learning than are presently taught. Ms. Cusimano’s book offers a refreshing and assured method for the solution to present day academic concerns.
