5. Students with specific learning difficulties

There are many different teaching strategies, according to specific issues and needs of the pupil. Some of the most frequent are:

  • Breaking long tasks into smaller segments
  • Present limited amounts of information on a page
  • Gradually increasing the amount of time a student must attend to a task or lecture
  • Use prompts and cues to draw attention to important information. 
  • Giving the pupil more time to read and finish the task
  • Tolerating specific mistakes of the student, etc.
