Learning Solutions
Before the birth of my child, I received a degree in psychology and a certificate in teaching. In the
course of my life I have worked in both regular and special education, both private and public schools,
designed curriculum for the classroom, was director at a private school, and home-schooled my own
child.
Some children collect trading cards or marbles. My child collected labels, and the list of learning
disabilities seemed endless at times. In addition, he was diagnosed with several medical conditions.
We sought help through the public school system as well as private means. He had a wonderful speech
therapist, but progressed slowly in many other areas. We had put together some pieces of the puzzle,
but no one seemed to know where the rest of the pieces were.

I will always have hope! Psalm 71:14

As time passed, I knocked on every door, asked every professional I could find, and continued to
research and educate myself. I began to discover programs and therapies that were not available in
the public school system or offered locally by private therapists. I became trained and certified in
different areas of learning disabilities and therapeutic approaches. My child began to experience
marked improvement with the introduction of each program. I found that with integrated therapies,
the puzzle finally started coming together.
Why did I really begin HANDS ON LEARNING SOLUTIONS?
Because my learning disabled child turned to me one day and said, “Mom, you need to go help other
children and their moms and dads, like you helped me.”
Learning challenges can become learning successes.
There is hope and there is help!
Terms such as ADD and LD lump too many diverse
children into one deceptively simple category. Labels
are not particularly helpful and are often misleading.
