Psychologists specializing in learning difficulties can help children with educational problems to improve their abilities”

Learning difficulties are a global problem that has become one of the great battles for psychologists, who have to apply complementary and innovative therapies to improve student performance. The advanced master’s degree in Therapeutic Pedagogy and Learning Difficulties aims to help professionals combine the main diagnostic tools for these problems with the most appropriate techniques to combat them.

The professors on the program are teachers specialized in Therapeutic Pedagogy and Learning Difficulties, who face the realities of students with functional diversity every day. They are knowledgeable not only of the theory, but also have experience in providing appropriate responses to the demands of students both individually and in the processes of inclusion in the real world.

This is a unique advanced master’s degree that combines the management of common diagnostic classifications within multiprofessional teams and their involvement in daily practice. This combination allows students to address the real demands within the within the field of work they practice.

Diversity is understood as the differences that students present in school learning, differences in terms of aptitudes, interests, motivations, abilities, maturity rates, learning styles, previous experiences and knowledge, social and cultural environments, etc. These aspects make up student typologies and profiles that should largely determine educational planning and action.

The perspective from the emerging educational paradigm must be inclusive and must be based on a biopsychosocial model that contemplates attention to diversity from a comprehensive approach aimed at the entire educational community. Psychologists, in the different educational stages, need to know the characteristics of these students, how to identify their needs and have the knowledge and tools to intervene at a personal, socio-familial and, above all, educational level.

This training program includes comprehensive knowledge on learning difficulties, incorporating new advances in educational psychology, clinical and pedagogic, as well as aspects regarding new technologies that can help to work with this population of students.
