In essence, dyslexia treatment is about providing the right tools and strategies to empower individuals to learn and thrive, despite the challenges associated with the condition.

The term "slow learner" describes a student who learns at his own pace. They are not intellectually disabled. These students may exhibit challenges in academic performance, but they can still learn and are perfectly capable of succeeding. The key is patience and strategy. It's about breaking down big ideas into small, manageable bites. Repetition is a powerful tool for building a strong foundation.

Common Characteristics:

• Slower pace of learning.
• Difficulty with abstract concepts.
• Challenges with multi-step directions.
• Short attention span.
• Need for repetition and reinforcement.
• Immature for their age.

Our Interventions:

• Repetition and reinforcement.
• Tutoring and individualized instruction.
• Development of study skills.
• Hands-on activities.
• Positive reinforcement and encouragement.
• Adapting teaching strategies.

The above interventions along with Personalized Education Plans (IEP), will help honour the child's individual pace. It helps celebrate small victories and focus on mastery, not speed, ensuring that learning is a positive and a rewarding experience.

Children often don't have the words to express what's bothering them. They may exhibit emotions like anxiety, behavioral issues, family conflicts etc. Child counseling is a valuable tool for supporting children's mental health and well-being. It’s not about "fixing" a problem; it's about giving children the tools to understand their own feelings and navigate the world with confidence.

When to seek help:

• Struggling with persistent sadness, anxiety, anger, or low self-esteem.
• Experiencing changes in behavior, sleep patterns, or appetite.
• Having difficulty coping with a stressful situation.
• Having trouble making friends or interacting with others.
• Facing academic or family problems.

What & how it does:

• Provides a safe and supportive space for children to explore their feelings.
• It helps children improve their emotional well-being, social skills, and overall mental health & build resilience.
• Usage of age-appropriate techniques and interventions to help children express themselves and develop coping strategies.
• A tailored treatment plan suiting your child's specific needs.
• Parental counseling may also be part of the process to provide support and guidance to the child's family.

Our Parental Counselling is a partnership designed to empower your entire family. We provide:

• A confidential space to discuss your challenges and celebrate successes.
• Practical, positive strategies to manage behaviour and support learning at home.
• Deeper insights into your child's unique world to strengthen your family bond.

Behaviour is communication. A tantrum, a defiant "no," or constant fidgeting is often a child's way of telling us something important. Behaviour management isn't about control or punishment; it's about understanding the "why" behind the action and teaching a better way to communicate.

Positive strategies are the most effective:

• Clear Boundaries: Children feel safer when they know the rules and what to expect.
• Consistent Routines: Predictability helps reduce anxiety and power struggles.
• Positive Reinforcement: Praising good behaviour is far more powerful than punishing negative behaviour.
• Empathy: Try to understand the feeling behind the behaviour. "I can see you're very angry that playtime is over."

Counselling helps decode this behaviour, uncovering underlying issues like anxiety, frustration with schoolwork, or social difficulties.

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects a child's ability to pay attention, control impulsive behaviours, and manage their energy levels. A child with ADHD isn't being "naughty" or "lazy"; their brain works differently.

Their mind can be like a web browser with too many tabs open at once—all are interesting, making it hard to focus on just one. While they may struggle with tasks that require quiet focus, they often possess incredible strengths:

• Creativity: They see the world from unique angles.
• High Energy: They can be passionate and driven when an interest is sparked.
• Resilience: They are used to overcoming challenges.

Effective strategies involve creating structure, breaking tasks into short bursts, using visual aids, and channelling their energy into productive outlets. With understanding and the right support system, this boundless energy can be transformed into a superpower.

Akshardhaan Learning Centre embraces the concept of neurodiversity, recognising that variations in learning, thinking, and processing are natural aspects of human development. Each child brings unique strengths and challenges. By fostering an inclusive environment and adopting evidence-based strategies, we empower learners to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally while nurturing their individuality.

In our digital world, it's easy to overlook the importance of handwriting. However, writing by hand is a complex skill that connects the brain and the body. It develops fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, and memory. When a child struggles with handwriting, it can affect their confidence and their ability to express their ideas on paper.

Difficulties like an awkward pencil grip, messy or slow writing, or trouble forming letters (sometimes a sign of dysgraphia) can be improved. Occupational therapy and targeted exercises can strengthen the necessary muscles and improve coordination. Fun activities like playing with clay, drawing, and using tweezers to pick up small objects can make a huge difference, turning a frustrating task into an enjoyable one.
