Active but slow mind
Hi,
The problem is related to my brother. He is 11 year old studying in class 4. At the age of 9 or 10 due some problems he faced an year of gap in studies due to which he forgot almost everything regarding studies. Since, he was not getting a proper learning enviro at his age, he became dull. Then finally he got admission on school and steadily got active and normal but he is now not able to match up to the level of the standard he is in rite now in studies. Je is much sincere and mature as compare to the age but not able to concentrate properly in studies and hence failed. Is that because of the gap he had or something else. Should we give him more time to recover and give him classes or we should consult a child development doctor first.
Kindly suggest.

Definitely one year gap may impact ,but this should have recovered , needs check for developmental milestones, learning issues.
But whatever may be with supervised teaching he will pick up.

Hi, Greetings of the day.
A years gap would certainly have had an impact on him, but he should have been able to recover most of it by one year of schooling. I think he can recover by remedial education. You should get his reading and comprehension skills checked as these form the basis for studies. If you want to know the best ways to get faster results for him, consult a psychologist specialising in learning matters or an educational psychologist.
