D. conducts cognitive assessments of children and adults who have difficulties learning and who may struggle with aspects of everyday functioning. Parents are often the first to notice learning differences in a child. A person's learning profile is unique. No single symptom is common to all indviduals with learning difficulties.

None of this would have been possible without your insight and assistance.
