A learning disability is a neurological condition that affects how individuals process information. This can impact skills such as reading, writing, and math, making it challenging for them to learn in traditional ways. People with learning disabilities may have average or above-average intelligence but struggle with specific academic tasks. Common types of learning disabilities include dyslexia, which affects reading, and dyscalculia, which impacts math skills. These disabilities are not indicative of a person's overall intelligence or potential. Early identification and tailored educational strategies can help individuals with learning disabilities succeed in their academic and personal lives.
