What is Dyscalculia? Dyscalculia is a mathematical disability in which a learner finds it difficult to solve arithmetic problems and have trouble grasping other math concepts.

Some are easily distracted while others find fact memorization particularly difficult.

Children with Dyscalculia may exhibit
