Understanding Learning Difficulties
At UMEED, we understand that learning challenges can significantly impact a person’s learning capacity. These difficulties are not a measure of intelligence but rather variations in the assimilation and retention of knowledge. Our team of skilled psychologists and psychiatrists is committed to offering people with these difficulties all-encompassing support to succeed personally and intellectually.
Common Signs of Learning Difficulties
Early detection of learning difficulties can have a significant impact. Here are four typical indicators to watch out for:
Difficulty Reading and Writing
Need help with literacy skills like spelling, word decoding, and intelligible writing.
Problems with Maths
Mathematical difficulties include difficulties comprehending concepts, operations, and numbers.
Short Attention Span
Inability to concentrate on work and adhere to instructions due to short attention span.
Poor Memory
Having problems recalling details, guidelines, or academic content.
What are Learning Difficulties?
Learning difficulties include a variety of disorders that impair one’s capacity to comprehend or utilize spoken or written language, perform mathematical calculations, coordinate motions, or focus attention. Auditory processing disorders, dyslexia, dyscalculia, and dysgraphia are common kinds. With the appropriate assistance and intervention, each kind offers particular difficulties that can be handled successfully.
What causes Learning Difficulties?
Learning difficulties can have many different and intricate causes. They could be brought on by environmental factors, neurological disorders, prenatal and neonatal problems, or genetic factors. Identifying the underlying cause is essential to creating workable plans to support individuals impacted. At UMEED, we conduct in-depth evaluations to pinpoint these underlying causes and customize our strategy to each person’s unique requirements.

Learning Difficulties in Adults and Students
Even though learning disabilities are most noticeable during the school years, they can linger into adulthood and impact both personal and professional lives. Our programs are designed with adults and students in mind, offering practical advice for many phases of life.
Difference between Learning Difficulties and Learning Disabilities
It is crucial to distinguish between learning difficulties and learning disabilities. As a subgroup of learning difficulties, learning disabilities are neurological diseases that, in spite of average or above-average intelligence, make it difficult for a person to acquire specific academic skills. On the other hand, learning issues include various difficulties, such as those brought on by outside influences.
