Dyscalculia Evaluation for Children and Teens
If your child struggles with math despite effort and support, it can be difficult to understand why.
A dyscalculia evaluation helps identify how your child processes numbers and math concepts so you can better support their learning and confidence.
When Parents
Start Asking Questions
Many parents reach out when math feels consistently harder than it should.
You may be noticing:
- difficulty understanding basic math concepts
- trouble remembering math facts or steps
- confusion with numbers, symbols, or sequences
- slow or effortful problem-solving
- frustration or avoidance when it comes to math
Sometimes these challenges appear early. Other times, they become more noticeable as math becomes more complex.
An evaluation helps determine whether dyscalculia or another learning difference may be contributing.
What this
Evaluation Looks At
Dyscalculia affects how a child understands numbers, patterns, and mathematical relationships.
This evaluation looks at:
- number sense and numerical understanding
- math calculation and problem-solving
- memory and processing related to math tasks
- ability to understand patterns and sequences
- overall learning profile
We use structured assessments and clinical interpretation to understand how your child approaches math and where challenges are occurring.
What You Get
From the Evaluation
The goal of this process is to provide clarity and direction.
After the evaluation, you’ll have:
- a clear understanding of whether dyscalculia is present
- insight into your child’s strengths and challenges with math
- recommendations for school support and accommodations
- strategies to help with math learning and problem-solving
- guidance on next steps
You’ll leave with a better understanding of how your child learns and how to support their progress.
