DYPRAXIC LEARNING DISABILITIES
https://www.mentalhealth.org.uk/learning-disabilities/a-to-z/d/dyspraxia
A disorder that is characterized by difficulty in muscle control, which causes problems with movement and coordination, language and speech, and can affect learning. Although not a learning disability, Dyspraxia often exists along with Dyslexia, Dyscalculia or ADHD.
(It's rare for an individual to be affected by a single learning difficulty. People will usually have two or more simultaneous conditions, ranging from mild to severe. For example, research suggests that 52% of children with dyslexia also have features of dyspraxia, and up to 50% of people with dyspraxia will also have ADHD.-SELF NOTES )
