With a lot of patience and love.
Every learner is different, and each will need a slightly different approach to ensure they get the best from their lesson. I take the same approach with ALL my learners, including those with Learning Disabilities. It is important to find out what makes the learner comfortable and what they know already before we move forward and develop a learning plan.
The most important thing is to understand them and make them feel comfortable. Then learning will become easier.
