What is Dyscalculia?

Dyscalculia is a specific learning disability that affects an individual's ability to understand and work with numbers.

People with dyscalculia may struggle with basic arithmetic operations, understanding mathematical concepts, learning and remembering math facts, and grasping numerical relationships.

Symptoms of dyscalculia can include challenges in counting, recognizing numerical symbols, understanding mathematical concepts, and performing calculations.

Multi-sensory learning strategies can be implemented to help individuals with dyscalculia overcome these challenges.

Just like dyslexia is a specific learning disability related to reading, dyscalculia is a specific learning disability related to mathematics. Although underdiagnosed, dyscalculia is believed to exist with a similar frequency to dyslexia.
