Slow learners need extra support from parents and educators alike. No

child deserves any less of a chance.

As parents, what we can do is maintain a positive attitude and

consistently support our children to be the best they can be without

limitations.

Providing students with a quiet place to work to reduce distractions

Give genuine praise frequently by emphasizing their strengths and

giving positive feedbacks

Developing short lessons by limiting the working time to several short

work periods rather than one long one

Varying their instructional technique by using active learning

experiences such as educational games, puzzles etc.

Allowing them to work on challenging learning materials; and gently

assure and correct them when they make occasional mistakes

Providing meaningful, concrete activities rather than abstract ones

Incorporating audio and visual materials – slow learners typically

learn better by seeing and hearing than by reading.

You too can help your child learn better through frequent study and practice.
