go and see a bahavioural optometrist they will lead you in the right dirction otherwise occupational therapis or even a paedatrician.good luck

i live in aus so i dont no the schools but a small school is the best school your child could go to,unless there is extra help..children with auditory processing need one on one learning or with head phones and specific instructions written down for them..use lots of visual pix and give them as much home help as you can...good luck

I am looking for the best person to give my child a screening for a possible auditory processing issue. Can you share your experiece? I am having trouble locating a physician who specialized is this in Atlanta.

The Schenk School

Just wanted to say that LD resources posted a very accurate review of my son's school. But like anything, I would urge you to check it out for yourself. Go on a tour, speak with administration and parents.

Good luck!

Thanks for your help!

There are more discussions at www.schwablearning.org there for archives. Schwab is now part of greatschools. Go to the schwab site, hit connect to go to the parent message boards and search them for the other schools. Lots of past discussions.

You might want to try posting on the site that I have provided a link to below:
