Remedial / Special Education

Our Service Details

The word 'remedy' literally means 'to heal or to fix'. Similarly, remedial education is intended to help children catch up to the level of learning competency that is expected of them at their age.
Remedial education is the concept of re-teaching and reinforcing the taught basic skills to improve a child's outcomes in current or future coursework. It is an intervention program to target basic skills such as phonics, reading, writing and number sense with the goal of raising the child's ability to the standard expected of their age (to 'remediate' the problem before it becomes worse). Alternatively, "learning gaps" are bridged.

It assists children to achieve expected competencies in core academic skills such as literacy and numeracy. Children who are struggling with a particular subject or skill may feel discouraged and overwhelmed, which can lead to a lack of motivation and a decrease in their academic performance, affecting the child’s overall personality.
Our team focuses on offering academic assistance to children who have social, learning, focus or physical difficulties and may need academic content supplements to traditional schooling. The educators help in promoting lifelong learning among children to understand their own learning styles and equip them with techniques to overcome their difficulties. This self-awareness fosters a positive attitude towards learning and encourages them to become enduring learners.
With an RCI – certified (Rehabilitation Council of India) team, we firmly believe in ensuring that challenges become opportunities and trials turn into triumphs!

Frequently Asked Questions

If you are unsure of whether your child would benefit from therapy, we would recommend calling us at 9004053414 or 9892283414.
We also offer a free 15-20 minute consultation & visit to the Centre where you can see the physical setup & talk to one of our therapists about your concerns. The therapist will ask questions about your child's development, briefly address any concerns you may have and recommend the next step forward.

It is called Occupational Therapy as it helps a child perform what is appropriate for their age or life stage, ie. their 'occupation'. For example, a baby's occupation is to eat, play, sleep, crawl & walk. Older children will be occupied with tasks such as writing, typing, focusing on schoolwork & participating in extracurricular activities.
Occupation therapy helps especially when difficulties with things like strength, coordination, dexterity, attention or sensory issues prevent a child from independently performing 'occupational' activities for their age.

Not every child who shows a delay of some kind requires early intervention, but if a child needs intervention it's important to start as soon as possible. Because every life skill builds on the one before it, waiting will cause any gaps in development to grow and it could take a lot more time & therapy to close the gap.

Absolutely not. Speech therapy is broken up into 2 parts - which is typical speech therapy & language therapy. Typical Speech Therapy is used to help develop sounds & vocabulary of the child, while language therapy helps develop higher order language skills, listening comprehension & reading comprehension. So there is no age limit - our job is to help the child reach an age appropriate level of speech & language.

Feeding therapy uses a play-based, child-directed exploratory feeding approach to increasing a child's palette. Our therapy helps reduce the stress & anxiety around feeding for our children & their families. This helps overcome the struggles of meal time - which restrict family & social dinner gatherings & even school lunch breaks.

Tutions are extra classes for supplementing regular school education while remedial education is specifically focused towards overcoming individual learning challenges or needs of a child. As just one example, a regular tution teacher would not be able to deal with focus issues or a lack of motivation towards learning, but our remedial teachers specifically build visual, play-based teaching programs to help overcome the same.

Multidisciplinary therapy is effectively working in collaboration between all therapy departments, leading to quicker diagnoses & solutions. This holistic approach offers versatility and real world problem solving.

An evaluation allows the therapist the opportunity to assess your child's development and set a baseline for measuring future progress. This assessment may include a standardised test, observation through play, medical history information and / or parent report. The evaluation is necessary to see what type of therapy is necessary & to determine the frequency of the therapy.

Yes. Once an evaluation has been scheduled, our office will ask you to fill out the online client registration form before arriving which asks for a brief history of the child. You can also share any previous therapy reports if you have any by e-mail or whatsapp.

We provide pediatric services for children from 6 months to 18 years old.

Yes. The Power Learning Centre believes that a collaborative & multidisciplinary effort between the child, their family & the centre helps to achieve results & reach a high level of success. Treatment of children with autism and working closely with their families is one of our specialities.

Parents are a very important part of our functioning and are often invited into the therapy rooms to observe sessions. Furthermore, parent education is an integral part of every therapy session. Small home programs are also provided to the parent to increase carryover in all settings and help the child be more successful in reaching their goals.
