iSEN MULTISENSORY CENTER

Have you ever wondered how a child feels while sitting in a classroom full of friends and realizing that he/she cannot do what the others are capable of doing?

It is tremendously unsettling for the child and the amount of stress experienced can take a toll not only on the academic aspect but also on other areas of life.

Gone are those days when Learning Difficulties (LD) were something that was hushed and only talked about behind closed doors. In the 21st century, it is of utmost importance to promote learning of reflective strategies and alter our teaching methods as per the needs of the child.

Weak basic skills should not become a barrier that affects the child’s ability to reach his/her academic goals. In case of any learning difficulties, early intervention is considered critical in order to improve long-term outcomes as well as helps in preventing self-esteem issues in the future.

We, at ISEN, promote the idea of designing an individualized intervention program, keeping in mind the child’s strengths and weaknesses. Our aim is to nurture kids with learning difficulties to become independent life-long learners, who strive and continue to grow in any field they choose to.
