I found this wonderful Powerpoint slides by Dr. Hecker of Landmark College titled “Teaching foreign languages to students with learning differences”. It outlines what difficulties different LDs can cause and “Best practices top 12” list. It even has some articles citations that can serve as a brief bibliography. I enjoyed reading this a lot, and am definitely incorporating some of the tips into my presentations.

As always, I will put this on the website (https://learningdifferencesinesl.wordpress.com/), and it will be under Courses and Webinars (https://learningdifferencesinesl.wordpress.com/resources/courses/) .
