The Dyscalculia Support Group allows members to exchange viewpoints and share resources in a private safe space. The blog posts include moderated comment sections to further discussion on the topics of the day. Please join us in sharing your own experiences with dyscalculia or other maths learning differences.

I have known of my ADHD issues the last 20 yrs but just learned about Dyscalculia!
I am jumping up and down for joy…that my whole life NOW makes sense! Yet have many questions and looking for others who are struggling with making life work with our limitations.
Hi Leslie,
Thanks for the comment! I’m glad discovering dyscalculia has helped you, if you would like to talk to others with dyscalculia try our Dyscalculia Support Group on Facebook.
Looking forward to hearing from you soon.

I’ve struggled with this issue for many , many years. I had no idea there was a name for it. It’s really embarrassing but somehow I feel better knowing I’m not the only one with this issue.
My 14 yeas daughter has dyscalculia. It is very long and hard road for her and me. We do not have a lot support at school. Next month I have meeting with the school with her math teacher and learning support. I am looking for any advise how I can help her and how I should convince the teachers to give her the right support. For any advise I will be thankful.
Hi Jowita,
Thank you for your comment.
Has your daughter received a full diagnosis report from a specialist or pediatrician? Having this report can really help your case in gaining support for your child from the school, it can also help you and the maths teacher understand exactly what support she needs. This article, Dyscalculia: After The Diagnosis, should contain the information your after.
I hope this helped 🙂
Thank you for the great resources on this blog! I wish this LD was more commonly known when I was growing up. I’m glad if teachers and parents can learn about it now, to save lots of kids years of heartache and stress.
Hi Gaylene,
Thank you for the comment! We try our best and provide what we can with our blog 🙂
We’re hoping that we can spread the awareness as much as possible and one-day dyscalculia will be as widely acknowledged as dyslexia.
Hi I am mother of 14 year old diagnosed with mild dyscalculia and moderate dyslexia. My son is not able to do word problems pls share some tips
Hi Ruchi,
I would recommend joining our Dyscalculia Support Group on Facebook if you can as its full of professionals, teachers, parents and adults with dyscalculia who are full of amazing tips on how they have approached their dyscalculia.
It is also worth looking at the software from Dybuster – here https://dybuster.com – like Calcularis, as it promotes the development and coordination of areas of the brain responsible for processing numbers. Also they have Orthograph for those with Dyslexia 🙂
