What is a learning difficulty?

Learning difficulty is a very broad name because it covers lots of different difficulties that people have with learning. It can cover finding it difficult to read, finding it difficult to write; having difficulty with spellings, or in processing information when people are trying to teach you, and having difficulty understanding exactly what they're saying and applying it to what you're learning. So, learning difficulties really do cover a huge range of difficulties that children might have in their normal learning.
