The Learning Associates of Montreal

The Learning Associates of Montreal WHAT IS A LEARNING DISABILITY? To describe these puzzling students, the term “learning disabilities” evolved. Adults usually self-refer.

LAM is a non-profit organization that empowers individuals with learning disabilities to discover their strengths, overcome their challenges and thrive in life. For close to a hundred years, psychologists and physicians have described people who were puzzling learners, who could master complex ideas, but seemed intractable in their ability to learn “simple” skills. Teachers were baffled by student

s who were obviously bright but who could not learn to read and spell and in some cases do arithmetic. Students or adults who experience difficulty learning are often frustrated and discouraged and so are their teachers. It is estimated that over 10% of the general population may be affected. Parents often refer their children for an assessment or evaluation on the recommendation of teachers or physicians, or on their own.
