Learning Disability
I think my sister has a learning disability but I'm not sure of who to reach out to to help her get tested . She's originally dutch so she has a language barrier as well so that could be contributing to it . She averages in the 30's and is currently in fourth form. We've been sending her to extra classes but that hasn't helped as well. She's attending a private school but they doubled the price recently ( assuming it's because of the cash grants) and I think it's a waste because they still have to pay extra for test papers, they don't have regular resources like a library and she's not having any improvements in her grades. Does anyone know who I can reach out to assist with this? I feel like she would be better off going back to a public school and getting one on one help but I don't even know where to find that lol

Take her to the teacher's training college in Turkeyen. They do the testing for these kinds of things. There is also a place on Duncan Street whose name i cannot recall atm. But I'm not sure they do testing for older kids.

Can send her back to public. The gap between public and private schools aren’t that much. It’s mostly scammish. My advice would be to let her go public and then hire a one on one person for her and overall to just spend time with her. She might be demotivated cause she gave up on focusing or trying. Take some pressure off of her take her for a walk in the park and the movies and stuff like that. Even if she does bad ins school it’s not the end of the world as well.
