Purchase options and add-ons

Most teachers will at some point come across a child with nonverbal learning disabilities, and this practical and informative book will be invaluable in helping them to help such children to achieve their full potential in the classroom.

Topics such as finding the right school, curriculum modifications, and social and emotional issues experienced by children with NLD are covered. However, the bulk of the book outlines specific teaching strategies, from how to deal with essay questions, to tips on helping the student master long division and ideas for improving reading comprehension. The author defines and discusses concepts such as frontloading and a cooperative learning environment, and discusses how they benefit the student with NLD.

Editorial Reviews

Review

[this book] will undoubtedly be of interest and of use to parent and teachers of children with NLD and/or other disorders. The content provides an interesting and informative insight into one mother's devoted work on her child's disorder. -- British Journal of Educational Psychology

Pamela Tanquay writes from the heart (she too is a parent of a child with NvLD) though she clearly grasps the subtle, complex and challenging features of NvLD. It describes the most practical of approaches to the debilitating syndrome. This is an excellent companion to her other text: Nonverbal Learning Disabilities at Home: a Parent's guide, with a forword by Byron Rourke FRSC. Both are highly readable, practical texts on NvLD. This book should be on the shelf of every Senco, teacher of specific needs and diagnostician. -- Assessment Matters

Book Description

A teachers guide to helping children with Nonverbal Learning Disabilities achieve their full potential in the classroom

5.0 out of 5 stars EVERY TEACHER SHOULD READ
Reviewed in the United States on May 8, 2023

Every Teacher should really read this book! There are students like my amazing Granddaughter who has this disability. The Teachers at the Private school she goes to could learn a lot if they read it. They do not offer any type of help for children who have disabilities and being a school whose religious background is supposed to help those in need. Very said. The Parent version is great for the family. Great Book!!!

I am so happy with this book. It totally describes my daughter to a "T" and has been so helpful to me and all of her educators.

I always have it close at hand to refer to when we are struggling with homework or learning something new in school. I have taken all of the ideas on how to teach certain subjects, photocopied them and made a handy desk refrence for all of her teachers.

I also bought one for her school to have.

I wish though, that it had more insight on how to teach multiplication to these kids. This is one area that my 7th grader just can not get a handle on!

This book is great, it is easy to read, and it clearly tells the world that your child or student with NVld can learn everything if it is just taught the best way for them and the disability is all encompassing in their lives not just academically. The social issues are a huge part of it all!

Thank you so much for such a great refrence through every step of our lives!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent resource for parent's with an NLD child.
Reviewed in the United States on March 18, 2006

If you are struggling with how to help your NLD child, then this book will be an excellent resource. The author uses clear, concise illustrations to help the reader understand the disorder and more importantly, what it's like to be a kid with NLD.

Included are some very practical and easy to implement suggestions to help the NLD child with math and writing. We've used a couple of the suggestions and had incredible results. Not only did our son complete the work correctly, but his success with these tools made him realize that he can do the work; he just needs the material presented to him in a way that he can understand. The cost of the book < $30...having your child realize they are capable...PRICELESS!

Very informative and easy to understand explanations of what is going on neurological that impacts an NLD child's functioning in an academic environment with practical and easy to implement suggestions of small adjustments that will greatly impact the child's ability to reach his or her full potential! I gave a copy to the special ed department at my daughter's school, & I highly recommend the companion book for caregivers at home too. Both should be required reading!

A great resource for teachers and parents alike. The best thing you can do is educate yourself to advocate for these kids. NVLD is an uphill battle and very much misunderstood. Educate those around you!

It was very evident that the author had a lot of experience dealing with a NVLD child. I read both of her books and found that I was not so alone in figuring out my child. A must read for parents of kids that are underperforming in school yet putting in so much effort!

Enjoyed the book and found educational tips useful. All of the basics are useful. However, when reading on this subject keep in mind that research is being done every day and some of it will be dated by the time the book goes to press.
