By Reading & Language Learning Center (RLLC)

What is it? Central Auditory Processing Disorder is a deficit in the ability to process auditory information. This can negatively impact a child’s language and learning.

What causes it? The breakdown usually occurs in the central nervous system. It can be caused by a brain injury, but often the cause is unknown.

What are some difficulties: 

  • Understanding language 
  • Following directions 
  • Paying attention 
  • Reading and spelling

What can I do?

  • Maintain eye contact when giving directions 
  • Speak slowly 
  • Break down directions 
  • Check for understanding 
  • Reduce background noise
  • Use visuals such as a graphic organizer
