There can be challenges in learning skills in Mathematics as well. Students could also experience issues in written work, be it drawing\/ drawing or any written based work. Based on these different kinds of challenges, we can categorise Learning Disability into 4 types – Dyslexia, Dysgraphia, Dyscalculia and Specific Learning Disability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dyslexia is a learning challenge in reading and writing. Dyscalculia is a learning challenge associated with mathematical skills and concepts. Dysgraphia are challenges in writing on a given space\/sheet. Specific Learning Disability can be a combination of two or all three types of learning disabilities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
