Beautiful story! i guess it would be hard for the professor to deal with that problem! But i'm glad he did!
I have a problem with numbers and it took me a life time to realize why my grades in maths were so bad!That and a memory problem! I know things ..i just can't remember them easily!

yep. its amazing how meny people who were 'jsut no good at XXX subject' or 'just a slow kid' in school of a learning disabilitie, but so few are tested. It causts the school money to test and to make changes for thoes students, and with thin budjects as it is they don't want to. The bit i had at the end, mandatory testing for it, is what I think should happen in 1st grade for every student (kindergarden is too early imo)

Yes i totally agree and more! I think all schools should teach gestual language,( i don't know the term in english) like french or german (and in my case english),I had a friend at school who had a deafness problem(she was almost deaf)and i could see how hard it was for her to get friends and how hard it was for us to sometimes communicate with her!we managed somehow but it was hard!

A lovely story - one that I am all too familiar with, as I am a special ed teacher myself, but it is always great to read about kids who are "different learners."

I, too, know what it's like to have difficulties to live with. Being hearing impaired impacts so much of my daily life. To this day, I still struggle accepting my challenges and the help of others, even those who know.

yea, i know what you mean. The reason i couldn't learn phonics (and hence can't spell) is because i have just enough hearing loss to make words sound drasticly diffrent to me, but not enough that i get a speach lisp from it.

imo, the best special ed teachers are the ones who are special needs themselfs.

A most moving and uplifting story. It made me cry at the beginning but I had a smile by the end of it.

This is really sweet! You know what? I've always wondered why Hogwarts doesnt have a guidence counsler or a psychologist like most schools. (Then again, I also wonder why they dont have any Humanities classes but thats a different topic all together..) So this fic really meant a lot to me in figuring out how some of those sorts of things could play out in Hogwarts.
PS. I think you are really brave
