Kivato Dysgraphia Tutoring Los Angeles Can Help With All Types of Dysgraphia

Many children often struggle with a learning disability that hinders their writing ability on a large scale. This learning disability is termed as Dysgraphia. Dysgraphia can seem like a daunting struggle to cope with, which is why Kivato Dysgraphia Tutoring Los Angeles will help you and your child overcome this obstacle together. Here at Kivato, we recognize that a student with poor handwriting may not immediately indicate Dysgraphia as it is a processing disorder (one in which the difficulties a student faces may not always stay constant). The principal types of Dysgraphia that can be identified are as follows:

• Type 1: Dyslexia Dysgraphia
  • Illegible writing, poor spelling, and finger tapping are all signs of Dyslexia Dysgraphia. It is important to note that a student with Dyslexia Dysgraphia may not always have Dyslexia.
• Type 2: Motor Dysgraphia
  • Students with Motor Dysgraphia often display signs of illegible or poor written work and difficulty with letter formation. However, letter construction can be largely improved with continuous effort.
• Type 3: Spatial Dysgraphia
  • Spatial Dysgraphia can be designated by issues with spatial awareness. Your child might struggle with writing within the lines of a piece of lined paper or with spacing words correctly. You may also recognize illegibility with your child’s written work. 
• Some additional dysgraphia types include Phonological Dysgraphia and Lexical Dysgraphia.
  • If your child struggles with spelling unfamiliar words or writing phonetically irregular words, they might have Phonological Dysgraphia. 
  • By contrast, if your child is able to spell but largely relies on sound-to-letter patterns when spelling, they might have Lexical Dysgraphia. 

How can Kivato Los Angeles Dysgraphia Tutors Help?

At Kivato Dysgraphia Tutoring Los Angeles, we implement an engaging and systematic teaching style in order to help your child develop expertise with writing. We ensure that each student is given comprehensive writing practice to help them overcome the struggles of writing. Students with Dysgraphia often espouse frustration with grammar, spelling, and punctuation, which is why the Kivato Los Angeles Dysgraphia Tutors place a high emphasis on these mechanics. 

Kivato Dysgraphia Tutoring Los Angeles recognizes the following as the most common systems of Dysgraphia:

• Reversals: when a student flips letters across the vertical axis (the letters are sideways)
• Inversions: when a student flips letters across the horizontal axis (the letter is upside down)
• Transpositions: when a student writes a sequence of letters in a word out of order

The Kivato Los Angeles Dysgraphia Tutors recognize the various difficulties that students with Dysgraphia are forced to contend with. Thus, we strive to understand each individual student in order to provide them with personalized tutoring.

We develop specialized instruction material which largely includes handwriting practice. At Kivato Dysgraphia Tutoring Los Angeles, we believe that it is never too late to start training your student’s skills.

Is Your Child Holding His Pencil the Right Way?

In order to truly help your student, we will provide special guidance on how to hold a pencil correctly. While perfect pencil grips do not always exude clear handwriting, we believe that the first step to creating legible handwriting is to find the grip that works best for them. If your child holds the pencil between their fingers or tucks their thumb under their first three fingers, their grasp is inept. The Kivato Los Angeles Dysgraphia Tutors will provide appropriate direction on the correct method to obtain a proper grasp in the way that is most comfortable for your student.
