Do you have a child with learning difficulties in your life? Then you already know there is no miracle cure, no one-solution-fits-all answer.
Perhaps you've already gone the healthy-diet route? Eliminated junk food, increased the fruit and vegetable intake... yet the child's concentration span is shorter than an eye blink? Ask yourself the following:
- does the child seem to concentrate better when chewing?
- is the child more sluggish after lunch?
- does he/she have an intolerance to salicylates which occur naturally in even wholesome food?
The first two points can be checked easily using the Learning Style Assessment tool.
To find out more about learning styles, have a look at this excellent video featuring Barbara Prashnig.

I agree with the notion that there is no 1 fits all solution. However there is always a solution and yes, sometimes it is a food allergy. But more than often it needs to be an educational solution. Please, turn to us, Jays' Education, if you need such a solution. To the author: we may cooperate, we would be happy to.

Thank you, Tom. We advocate the use of Learning Styles to determine the best learning conditions - physical and environmental - for the students. What's your solution?
