Special Needs Children

With the rise in the number of kids with learning difficulties, what can we, as the member of the community do to help?

An article in Utusan Online explains in detail.

“Bukan sesuatu yang mustahil bagi kanak-kanak atau individu bermasalah seperti ini untuk menjalani kehidupan normal seperti orang lain. Mereka berupaya belajar, berpasangan dan bekerjaya. Apa yang mereka perlukan ialah sokongan semua pihak dan pendekatan yang khusus dengan kaedah strategik dalam membimbing dan mendidik mereka sehingga berjaya.”

TIM Preschool started our Special Learning Needs program in 2013 to:

  • Help our special learning needs kids acquire skills so they can live independently in the community.
  • Increase awareness among the typical kids and the society as a whole.

Please pray and support our cause. Don’t forget to spread the word!

We started our Autism Movement Therapy (AMT) session in 2015. These sessions involve music, dance moves and loads of fun!

“There’s a bridge between the left and right hemisphere that transmits information. What happens with our kids is that the transmission of the information is not going through. Dance and music forces the brain to reorganize itself. Through the music and the movement the child is being asked to hear the music, process the sequence and the patterns, and then dance, it takes both sides of the brain to dance.“
