LD,

The gist of your NPA is that your biggest struggle is a visual processing issue. Your visual memory and visual processing speed is below average. There may be some ways to improve these functions. Multi-sensory learning should be helpful. Using 'text to speech' on your computer with head phones or ear buds may help. This would allow you to listen to the text as you read it. The dual pathway will enhance your ability to remember the information.

In a classroom setting, sitting at the front of the class so there are minimal visual distractions may help. Taking notes may help if you can keep up with the information. Using a smart phone to keep track of information may be helpful.

I have memory struggles too. It can be frustrating. I used to have a very good memory. Learning new ways to remember has been a challenge.

The report is not detailed enough to say much more.

It will be interesting to see what your neuro says about the report. He may refer you to speech therapy to see if you can learn some memory enhancing techniques.

My best to you.
