Tons of people with "learning disabilities" just aren't being taught in a way that stimulates them. People with ADHD often have the ability to absorb and process information super quickly, which means that in a classroom setting you could get all the required information in a compressed 5 minute session instead of having to sit through the entire boring lecture.
I, myself, learn my best by visually watching something. Watching the entire process flow from above helps me visualize every step, and I usually perform the action or task with great success afterwards.
When It comes to more mundane paperwork such as math, or history, often putting things into a game or puzzle for your mind helps the information stick once its inside instead of in one ear and out the other.
As a mathematician this triggers me, queue reee.

As someone who sucks at higher level math, the way most classes teach doesn’t work for me. I do best with visual representations of WHY certain things happen, not just cramming numbers into my head and being told only THAT it happens. Like rolling a circle over 3.14 diameter lengths to show why pi is what it is. I was well out of college before I saw a random internet gif demonstrate that, and it makes sense finally.
