At HOPE CDC The Remedial educator works with children who have lower intellectual ability for their age leading to difficulties in performing at class level as they have concerns in age-appropriate social maturity, analytical skills, or physical abilities. We use specific teaching strategies for children to achieve a normal level of functioning in academic area. We work with children who are diagnosed with Specific Learning Disorder (SLD/LD), Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Intellectual Difficulties (ID) and other such neurodevelopmental concerns.

A remedial therapist, on the other hand, works with a child who has average or higher intellectual ability but faces difficulty in specific academic areas.

Remedial programs are designed to meet the specific concern areas and to make sure the child is able to perform well in school.

A remedial therapist/special educator is different from a tutor. A tutor works on academics, whereas a remedial therapist/special educator works on specific skills in which a child shows concerns. For example, if a child is diagnosed with Dyscalculia or shows difficulty in mathematics, then a tutor will make him/her practice multiple times, but a remedial therapist/special educator will work on specific strategies to help the child understand numbers and facts and teach easier methods.

Areas we work on:

• Reading Skills (reading and understanding information)
• Writing Skills (spellings, handwriting, writing expression)
• Math Skills (basic and advance)
• Information Processing (perception and memory)
• Study Skills
• Social Skills
• Functional Academics.
