Be patient and praise your child's efforts. Remember that learning-disabled children learn best when material is presented in a variety of ways. Information gained from your child's assessment will guide you in helping your child with schoolwork. Tips for developing self-esteem in children are available from the Employee Consultation Service. The ECS will discuss your concerns about your child, assist in arranging evaluations and help you develop helping strategies.
All consultations are confidential.
The ECS is in Washington, D.C., at State Annex l, Columbia Plaza, Room H246.
