Language disorders are classified into two types: expressive and expressive/receptive. If an individual’s expressive and receptive language skills are intact but they struggle with reading and written language, the general term for literacy difficulties used informally by professionals is a language-based learning disability.
Because language must first be mastered orally, expressively, and auditorily, these disabilities almost always have a negative impact on literacy development if left untreated.
Language disorders appear to be neurological and developmental disorders that impair the brain’s language processing functions. Individuals with language disorders have a strong genetic link.
The age at which language disorders are typically recognized is a significant factor in how they are diagnosed by professionals. Most learning disabilities are not recognized until the child reaches school age or older. Language disorders, on the other hand, tend to emerge earlier in toddlers and preschool children. During this period, there is a strong emphasis on learning to speak and process language, such as following instructions and understanding linguistic concepts. Whether the disorder is mild or severe, it will generally hinder a child’s ability to master literacy at some point during his or her time in school if not treated professionally.

Language disorders are diagnosed and treated by speech-language pathologists (SLPs) and neuropsychologists. An SLP will evaluate your child’s ability to listen, speak, read, and write. Children who are thought to be at risk of having significant difficulties with expressive or expressive and receptive language skills should work with a professional, state-licensed speech-language therapist.
Language and Auditory Processing Disorder Tutoring
Learning disabilities persist throughout an individual’s life, but it can be managed through the collaborative efforts of the child, parents, teachers, family, friends, and colleagues. These dеmаnd timеlу support аnd intеrvеntiоn that address the child’s unique needs and weaknesses. As he or she grows older and their learning environment changes, this process must adapt to the new challenges and situations that arise and must be understood by everyone involved.
