WHAT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE LEARNING CONSULTANT?

The learning consultant is trained to determine the learning styles of children and to recommend specific teaching methods/materials which will best accommodate a child's needs. The learning consultant also determines whether a child who has been referred to the Child Study Team has the tools to learn, and what academic knowledge and skills the child has acquired. In addition, the learning consultant provides consultative services to the regular and special education teachers, and parents to develop strategies and techniques to enhance the students' academic performance.
