Rick Lavoi does an excellent job in bringing awareness about Learning Disablities to those that do not have one or do not have a child with one. If you do not have one or a child with one, you won't ever understand until you see this video. This should be a required video to watch for any teacher. My daughter with a LD was thrilled after watching the video. She realized she was not stupid and realized some self discoveries.

This review is from: How Difficult Can This Be? Understanding Learning Disabilities (The F.A.T. City Workshop) (VHS Tape)

I was required to watch this in college (I am a teacher) and last year it was shown as a staff development workshop at my school. I am amazed each time I watch this video as I can relate to what students experience in school. I have a son who is now 22 and was identified as LD in 1st grade. I cried the first time I watched this not realizing how he looked at the world or vice versa. It really teaches adults what a learning disability is and how these students feel trying to overcome their obstacles. This is a must see for parents who have a child with a disability and should be required every few years for teachers to view or review.
