You ^
can
treat
an
in·fec·ted·
fin·ger·
by
gi·ving·
the
per·son·
an·ti·bi·o·tics· ,
but
if
you ^
don't
re·move· ^
the
splin·ter·
which
is
cau·sing·
the
pro·blem· ,
the
in·fec·tion·
will
just
come ^
back
a·gain· ^.
The
same
lo·gic·
a·pplies·
on
the
in·te·llec·tu·al·
le·vel·
-
em·bar·king·
on
a
co·a·ching·
pro·gram·
wi·thout·
un·co·ve·ring· ^
the
un·der·ly·ing·
rea·son·
for
a·ny· ^
pro·blems· ,
can
mean
that
you ^
spend
a
lot
of ^
time ,
mo·ney· ^
and
e·ffort·
hel·ping·
your
child ,
yet
make
li·ttle·
pro·gress·
with
the
o·ri·gi·nal·
pro·blem· .
Be·fore·
we
start
co·a·ching·
we
do ^
a
di·ag·no·stic·
a·sse·ssment·
to
a·scer·tain·
your
child's
le·vel·
of ^
pro·fi·cien·cy·
on
a
wide
range
of ^
di·ffe·rent·
skills .
We
then
ex·a·mine·
the
thin·king·
stra·te·gies·
your
child
u·ses·
to
learn
with
so
I
can
de·ter·mine·
the
cause
of ^
a·ny· ^
pro·blems·
and
pre·pare·
the
most
a·ppro·pri·ate·
pro·gram·
of ^
re·me·di·a·tion· .
In
this
way
we
can
fix
most
e·du·ca·tio·nal·
pro·blems·
qui·ckly·
and
e·ffec·tive·ly· .
In
fact ,
we
re·co·mmend·
that
all
chil·dren· ,
whe·ther·
they ^
a·ppear·
to
be
ha·ving·
pro·blems·
with
their ^
school
work
or
not ,
have
a
com·plete·
di·ag·no·stic·
a·sse·ssment·
by
the
age
of ^
10
or
11
to
en·sure· ^
that
they ^
have
ma·stered·
all
the
ba·sic·
skills
ne·ce·ssa·ry·
for
suc·cess·
in
ju·nior·
high
school .
There ^
are
ma·ny· ^
in·te·lli·gent·
stu·dents·
who ^
on·ly·
get
a·ve·rage·
grades
in
pri·ma·ry·
school
be·cause·
they ^
have
un·di·ag·nosed·
lear·ning·
pro·blems· ,
symp·toms·
of ^
which
o·ften·
don't
show
up
un·til·
high
school .
I
have
just
out·lined·
the
im·por·tance·
of ^
en·su·ring· ^
your

has
all
the
ba·sic·
lear·ning·
