In her message, Aviva says a kid needs TWO evaluations to get an oral
exam. This is slightly incorrect. In order to get an oral exam, the
evaluation must be done by an educational psychologist who does both
the didactic and the psychological evaluation. Therefore, if you
think a kid needs an oral test, you should suggest that the evaluation
be done by an educational psychologist who can give all types of
accommodations including an oral test. Most regular LD kids do not
need a psychological evaluation and the assessment done by a qualified
and licensed didactic tester is sufficient. Also, if a kid is ADD /
ADHD they may need to be evaluated by a neurologist as well.
