Guest guest Posted October 25, 2010 Report Share Posted October 25, 2010 Hey all of you experts out there. I am starting to plan to train my son. He was diagnosed with a Nonverbal Learning Disability and has Tourettes which is now in remission. He is doing amazingly well which is why I have not treated him yet but his disability is now starting to cause issues. Where in the brain would you find Visual Memory? At this time, this is his biggest issue. He has Visual Spatial issues but can score in the 98th percentile with Visual Spatial skills if given enough time. (It takes him much time to compensate). I know P4 is visual spatial but was wondering where visual memory lies. His memory is very good when remembering language and words. His biggest issue lies in Math. My understanding that Visual Memory sets up a memory system to access pieces of memory. He does not have the memory system. When prompted, he can do math. When just looking at a problem, he does not have a clue. The prompts get him to the information in his brain. So, I want to give him the memory system. Thanks in advance for anything you can add. Backchannel me if you'd like. Thanks, Connie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 25, 2010 Report Share Posted October 25, 2010 Connie, out of curiosity what protocols did you use for the Tourettes? The 411 (how long, adjustments, montage, protocol switching if any, etc) ? Thank you, TroyFrom: Connie <conniewelsh@...> Sent: Mon, October 25, 2010 9:48:15 AMSubject: Visual memory Hey all of you experts out there. I am starting to plan to train my son.
