homeschool resources for middle schooler with dyslexia & memory problems

dfrecore Wrote:I am guessing that there probably isn't a country in the world where the public school system could help you very much. As much as we say that Sweden or Denmark or South Korea have better school systems than ours, they never talk about dealing with kids who have issues - only how much better they are via testing.

Not saying your system is good per se, just that I'm not sure anywhere is better at this point. Except probably homeschooling.

There are numerous differences between what the U.S. has to deal with in its school systems vs. most other developed nations. The U.S. is a lot more ethnically diverse, some European countries put lower performing students on a vocational tracks, and the U.S. has a relatively high child poverty rate for a developed nation. A lot of European countries are a lot smaller, have high taxes, and are much more socialist almost completely eradicating child poverty. The way they train, hire, and pay teachers would be opposed by most of our politicians. They're highly selective and pay very high salaries whereas the U.S. pays modest salaries and will accept almost anyone who can pass a set of tests out of desperation.

I'm not an education expert, but I believe the OP's daughter's problems may be beyond the help of an educator. There are possibly neurological problems that only medical professionals can gain insight into.
