Kids Do Not All Learn at the Same Pace.

You don’t need to be hit over the head with a sledgehammer to know that. They are all unique individuals wired differently. Students with high academic abilities learn quickly and retain most of the skills they learn. Academically less able students, for a variety of reasons, learn more slowly than high achievers.

Let us take a group of fifth and sixth graders for example. If you build a foundation of skills and challenges, they might have difficulty making application of information in other situations. In many cases, they have developed excellent abilities, but overcoming the factors that contribute to their learning difficulties have not been successfully addressed.

Dr. Steven Sussman, a noted child psychologist serving the Metropolitan area, is here to help. He has seen just about every behavior disorder in kids for 30 years. Why not give Dr. Sussman a call at his Mountainside, NJ office at (908) 217-8106 and discuss your child’s particular situation? For more information about Dr. Steve please visit sussmankids.com.
