Diagnostic/Prescriptive Teaching

      Maximize your students success by taking a diagnostic/prescriptive approach to
      placement and to teaching students with language-based learning disabilities. 
      The first step in concluding what type of program or teaching method to prescribe is

      to use evaluation techniques to determine a student's learning style and individual
      strengths and weaknesses. Once a program has been established, diagnosing and

      prescribing verifies which remedial approaches/strategies a student should be taught.

      No one remedial approach is suitable for every student and the constant use

      of diagnostic/prescriptive procedures must be in place to assure the on-going

      appropriateness of program placement and teaching strategies.
