Has anyone ever dealt with the condition dyscalculia? I’d never heard of it but a private maths tutor thinks my soon may have it.

college are great and getting him the support he needs in other areas.

you might like to have a look at my "Some PubMed Dyslexia Research Paper Collections" which includes a dyscalculia collection of research papers
And my be my "What is Dyslexia?" page has a description of dyslexia and some specific research paper links.
I have Auditory Processing Disorder which is the underlying cause of my dyslexia symptom., and possible dyscalculia issues, I had problems more with algebra, and statistics
If you believe your son has dyscalculia then you can see a GP and ask for a referral. This will be done by completing a test that shows how your brain processes numbers. It can be associated with other disabilities like @April2018mom has said, however this is not always the case.
Please do let us know how you get on and if there is anything we can do to help.
