Learning Disabilities

A personalized program to promote inclusion and provide solutions for a diverse range of needs!

Personalised, inclusion driven program

Tailored support for your learning needs

TEMPERA Institute provides specific learning support for students enrolled in the MYP and IBDP programs, for students with diverse learning needs. Our approach is consistent with the IBO policy:

“Inclusion is an ongoing process that takes into consideration the uniqueness of each individual’s cognitive, social, emotional, and physical needs in order to provide them with best learning opportunities and to promote an education that develops life-long learner and active international minded citizens. Inclusion is the learner profile in action, an outcome of dynamic learning communities.” (SEN within the IB programs, 2010:3)

Our multidisciplinary team is prepared to offer the students the best academic support fit to their individual needs.

Some students face more challenges than others, therefore assessment and tailored intervention are a vital aspect of TEMPERA activity.

Some of the learning challenges we work with are:

Dyslexia & Dyscalculia

Learning disabilities that affect a student’s ability to read and process texts, as well as to understand numbers and learn mathematical facts, respectively. They are often inter-connected.

Reading Comprehension Deficit

This manifests in difficulties understanding what the student has read or spoken language and could also impact their verbal expression abilities.

Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD)

Includes difficulties regarding maintaining focus and attention, as well as reduced impulse control and hyperactivity.

Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)

Results in difficulties sustaining attention, following instructions, and completing tasks. The students diagnosed with ADHD can be easily distracted, forgetful, and disorganized.

Executive Functioning Difficulties

These affect short term memory, inhibitory control and cognitive flexibility. In short, planning, organization, strategizing, attention to detail and time management and space are affected.
