In the United States, the term learning disability (LD) refers to a group of disorders that affect
a broad range of academic and functional skills including the ability to speak, listen, read, write, math, spell, reason and
organize information.
A learning disability is not indicative of low intelligence. People with learning disabilities
sometimes have difficulty achieving at his or her intellectual level because of a deficit in one or more of the ways the brain
processes information.
