Dyscalculia is a difficulty with mathematics which interferes
noticeably with school performance although there is neither
intellectual nor sensorial deficiency.
This is a specific learning disability, just as dyslexia is,
which it can moreover be associated with to varying degrees.
Children suffering from dyspraxia are also affected by
dyscalculia.The
Tomatis method provides a means of considerably counteracting
this disability through a precise action on fine motor skills,
laterality and short term verbal memory, in particular by
working on establishing correspondences between numbers as
figures and the naming of numbers.
