Psycho-Educational Evaluations
DOES YOUR CHILD STRUGGLE AT SCHOOL? LET’S FIND OUT WHY.
You child may have always struggled at school and you feel that he or she is different from other children. Or, perhaps, the academic problems started later on and now your child is underperforming. Maybe your teenager is not putting enough effort at school and you wonder whether the low grades reflect poor motivation or an underlying learning problem.
Each evaluation is carefully planned with children’s unique background in mind. Testing sessions take place in a friendly and accepting atmosphere. This ensures that children perform to the best of their abilities and feel comfortable during the testing process. I always try to understand each child’s unique talents and needs in order to help parents secure the best educational opportunities for their children.
