Learning Support
Why choose us?

Since 2012, our department offers the opportunity to support children who have disorders in their all-round development, within the framework of a multidimensional structure, such as the "AGIOS LOUKAS" Clinic, with direct access to any kind of additional medical service or specialization.


Specially designed area for children

The services are provided in a properly configured wing of the Clinic, away from the hospital wards, in places where children and parents are happy to be. The space has its own entrance and of course the free parking of the Clinic.

What does the department offer at the "AGIOS LOUKAS" Clinic?

The necessity of interdisciplinary cooperation

The existence of such a department within a Clinic has multiple benefits. 

On the one hand, we are given the opportunity to frame with the appropriate medical services every diagnosis. Many children who are labeled "lazy", "unreadable" or "late" by teachers, are because they do not see well. 


Even seizures, the so-called "subtractions", can be considered carelessness and remain undiagnosed.


Another typical example of the necessity of interdisciplinary cooperation is autism. Many times, parents attribute the social withdrawal and the lack of response of the toddler to audiological problems, wasting valuable time. In such a case, the ENT can help solve the puzzle. 


What is Special Education?

Special Education concerns the educational services provided to students with special educational needs, such as Dyslexia, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, etc. However, many children fail to meet school requirements, without being able to easily join a diagnostic category. Thus, children who experience school failure are candidates to be provided with special education.



When should one turn to a specialist?

It is not uncommon for parents to delay a visit to the specialist, because they hope that a difficulty is simply transient and will be overcome by itself. But if it is not overcome? The earlier one turns to the specialist, the better results he will have. In fact, if one considers the percentage of occurrence of learning difficulties, which can reach 20%, no parent should be complacent.


A few words about Mrs. Zoe Theodoridou, Special Educator
Head of the Department of Learning Support



The experience with children, in a well-equipped environment, constantly generates ideas that we try to explore, exchange, discuss with foreign colleagues. It is a cycle of perception and action. 


In this context, for example, we were invited to serve as Guest Editors in the special issue Perspectives in Neuroscience of Special Education by Frontiers in Human Neuroscience. Frontiers magazine's neurosciences branch climbed to first place, according to the Journal Citation Reports (JCR) provided by Thomson Reuters. 


This is the experience I pass on to the students, showing them how neurosciences are bridged with education, theory with practice. Our goal is to serve science, not in sterile laboratories and classrooms, but within society, which needs it now more than ever.
