I believe that there are individual differences among students. I appreciate sharing your feedback in terms of how we can deal with very slow learners (slow comprehension).
The teacher must find the appropriate way to communicate the information to all pupils without exception and do his best in it using various methods and methods of simplification, clarification and desire, even if one of the pupils did not understand or absorb the teacher must repeat the attempt with him, and effective teaching is that type of teaching that The role of the student in learning is activated not only the recipient of information, but a participant and researcher of information by various means possible, and in more precise words is a type of teaching based on self-activity and positive participation of the learner through which he may do research using a range of activities Scientific processes and Kalmlahzh hypotheses, measurement and read the data and the conclusion, which help him to reach the required information by himself and under the supervision of the teacher and guidance and evaluation.
"Effective teaching is expected to educate pupils to exercise self-conscious ability that does not ultimately touch the degree, nor a personal ambition under which all other ambitions stand," says Neville Johnson. This requires him to be able to analyze, crystallize and understand not only through educational but continuous stages that are expected to be created and developed by the educational stages through which the individual passes. “Effective teaching teaches learners to attack ideas, not to attack people,” he said. And this j I mean that effective teaching transforms the learning process into a partnership between the teacher and the learner.
Effective teaching can be defined as the type of teaching that actually leads to the desired change, ie, the achievement of the objectives set for the material, whether cognitive, emotional or skill, and works to build a balanced personality of the student.

Dear Maysaa,
Thank you very much for this comprehensive answer. I agree with you that the teacher should be more patient and to do his best in " using various methods and methods of simplification, clarification, and desire". However, the issue becomes much complicated because of inadequate brain development.
Dear Dr. Mohammad
This is true that the process of education will become complicated by the growth of their brain, but slow understanding of students are at different levels of slow, and the education of these needs to cadre specialized in dealing with these students in addition to preparing the appropriate books for them and other things they need
The need to inform the academic dean to make a teacher change.
The continuos training and education of teachers about teaching skills is responsibilty of the institutes. May be the slow learner need more training to become good learner.
Thank you for your question. This question is usually raised during the site visits of those who measures quality of teaching in universities.In general, slow learners in classrooms need a great deal of stimulation, guidance to the main points of lessons. Teacher is better to try to use real-life examples and utilize audio and visual aids .
Dear Gamal and Mahfuz,
Thanks for sharing your feedback.
Teachers who do not have sufficient experience will find it difficult to deal with such kind of students. I agree with all of that slow learners should be given much attention.
The most important thing in my opinion is to be patient and consistent.
In all the colleges and universities in the United States, as required by Federal Law, anyone with a documented disability including learning disorders can enroll in the Special Services program of the university (also called Accessibility Resources) whereby, depending on the diagnosis, the student may take advantage of additional time for testing, perhaps using a note taker, possible use of visual cues during testing as well as quiet environment for test taking. All states have their own state run vocational rehabilitation services in which eligible students may enroll and have other services provided for including tuition, books and adaptive aids as needed. In addition to all of these, if a professor observes that the student appears to have difficulties due to slow learning process, the professor may talk to the person one-on-one outside of classroom and bring the student's attention to possible services as well as be patient with the student encouraging the student to come to office hours as necessary with questions, attending tutoring services on campus, etc.
Thanks Rajaa and Sirni for sharing your experience. Unfortunately there are no such special services program here to support such students. I believe that these programs have great advantages
