Learning anxiety, low self-esteem, resistance to learning and learned
helplessness can be a direct result of learning difficulties. Educational
therapy is an intensive, interactive, one-to-one therapeutic process
that allows for the healing of emotional and educational wounds. A
strong relationship between the student and learning specialist provides
the security needed for students to be willing to learn. Each session
involves remediation of underlying perceptual deficits and the development
of academic and intellectual skills. The willingness to learn and take
educational risks is renewed as students experience success. |
