My dd (aged 10) has been struggling at school. We went to see a private tutor last night. During the discussion she asked if my dd uses her knife in the wrong hands which she does and that she tilts her head to one side when working. She also gets lost in her times tables and really does not like art. When she handed her a tube to look through she took it in her left (she is left handed) and looked through it with her right eye. The tutor said she thought she was bilateral which meant information taken into one side of her brain had to travel to the other side to be 'de-coded'.
Does anyone know anything more about this? Is the tutor right with what she is saying? How can I help my dd?
Advice/experience very welcome - thanks.
