Slow learners also need to study differently.
Reality Coaching: What Parents and Teachers Must Know

Slow learners are children who need a long period of time to learn with someone on hand to help them.
While some assistance may be provided to children as they learn, there may be areas where they can study on their own, but for the most part, children need adult assistance for long periods of time.
However, in these times when classes are being conducted online, parents need to be present at home to watch and provide assistance for their children to keep up with the class.
This is because 'slow learners' have significantly lower concentration levels.
In cases where children have many siblings or both parents work and cannot be there to help, it is difficult to properly conduct online classes.


Schools, education offices, and other institutions are recognizing the urgency of this problem and are considering how to help slow learners, while also working to train professionals to assist students.
This book was written to assist schools and education offices in researching learning support methods for slow learners, and to assist homeroom teachers and other professionals in learning instructional methods.
It is also a book designed to be a reference for parents who are concerned about helping their children who lack basic learning skills at home.


A realistic guide to raising a late-onset child.
Developing basic cognitive skills and understanding learning ability assessments

Children with borderline intelligence and learning disabilities have a greater desire to learn than anyone else, but they are often misunderstood by their parents, teachers, and peers as "children who don't like to study."
How can we help students with borderline intelligence and learning disabilities who don't feel appreciated for their passion and effort? Since these individuals aren't considered special education students, they can be helped without special education training.


This book concretizes the challenges faced by students with borderline intelligence and learning disabilities and suggests practical ways to overcome them.
By providing ordinary teachers and parents with hints on how to help students with borderline intelligence and learning disabilities, this book aims to help students learn as they wish and strive.
For example, you can specifically identify the signals that slow learners send, such as lack of concentration, slow language development, and difficulty learning to count or calculate, and you can identify which areas they are lacking by referring to their intelligence quotients from intelligence tests.


It helps to distinguish between the cognitive characteristics of borderline intelligence and learning disabilities, and to learn training to strengthen 'basic cognitive abilities' based on these characteristics.
In particular, Part 4 provides a practical guide with specific methods for identifying the difficulties of slow learners using tools to assess learning ability and how to develop a learning plan based on the assessment results.
To help slow learners, it is important to first understand what each student struggles with and what they excel at.


Korean, reading, math…
Providing effective learning methods for slow learners

As a child psychology expert who has taught slow learners for over 10 years, the author has met many teachers who complain that teaching Korean to slow learners is extremely difficult.
Part 5 introduces teaching methods that can be used in conjunction with school and home, from the principles of Hangul teaching to the correct method and order of Hangul teaching, memorizing letter-sound correspondences, practicing phonological awareness, and teaching writing.
One of the unfortunate characteristics of slow learners is that they can read sentences without hesitation, but cannot express what they have read.
Part 6 covers basic attention training, comprehending meaning through paused reading, reading aloud, and reading visually to help slow learners effectively understand the content of the text.


For slow learners, 'math' is a subject that is much more difficult to learn than reading.
It's basically because they lack a sense of numbers.
Even if you count the numbers, you just memorize them without understanding the rules by which the numbers change.
Slow learners need to build a solid foundation in mathematics by sufficiently acquiring number sense and developing an understanding and memory of number rules.
Part 7 explains effective math teaching methods for slow learners, from basic number concepts to the use of operation tools and specific practical plans for counting from 1 to 6.


A book for adults who guide children who are slow learners.
Understanding a child's psychology is more difficult than teaching them to study.

While it is certainly important to examine the characteristics of slow learners and effective study guidance methods for them, it is also crucial to understand their psychology.
The final part delves into the psychology of children, which is more difficult to teach than studying.
You can see into the psychology of slow learners in various situations and identify the cause of the problem.
The teacher provides detailed and meticulous guidance on how to teach children who cry out of fear and who have poor stamina, as well as how to identify the causes of impulsive behavior and how to select appropriate teaching materials.
This is a must-read for any adult interested in children's speech and behavior, including parents, education professionals, teachers, and child psychologists.
I hope that through this book, readers will understand the difference between borderline intelligence and learning disabilities and learn basic learning guidance methods.
I also hope that students will be able to overcome difficulties on their own through appropriate guidance methods.
