Psycho-Educational Assessments

A lot of parents are unsure as to what exactly a psycho-educational assessment entails and when it is necessary for a child to have one. A psycho-educational assessment is primarily focused on diagnosing learning problems and/or determining the child’s emotional and academic strengths and weaknesses in order to design effective intervention strategies. I have a special interest in the following learning difficulties:

Dyslexia is a learning disability in reading. People with dyslexia have trouble reading at a good pace and without mistakes. They may also have a hard time with reading comprehension, spelling, and writing. But these challenges aren’t a problem with intelligence. The Stark Griffin Dyslexia Test is utilized. The Stark Griffin Junior Dyslexia test are utilised for children grade R-2 to identify and address risk factors.

Dyscalculia is a term referring to a wide range of difficulties with maths, including weaknesses in understanding the meaning of numbers, and difficulty applying mathematical principles to solve problems. The Stark Griffin Dyscalculia Test is utilized.

Dysgraphia refers to a specific set of writing challenges. It impacts writing skills like handwriting, typing, and spelling. The Stark Griffin Dysgraphia test is utilised.
