Auditory Processing Disorder is a disability that affects how the brain processes spoken language. This results in children having difficulty interpreting and storing information, despite having normal hearing acuity. Areas of training will be in some or all of the following: auditory memory, auditory discrimination, auditory sequencing, and phonological awareness skills (the ability to identify the sounds in words). These are the underpinnings of reading, writing, listening comprehension and reading comprehension.
