Dysgraphia is a learning disability that affects writing, which requires a complex set of motor and information processing skills.
Dysgraphia makes the act of writing difficult. It can lead to problems with spelling, poor handwriting, and putting thoughts on paper.
People with dysgraphia can have trouble organizing letters, numbers, and words on a line or page. This can result partly from:

- Language processing difficulty: trouble processing and making sense of what the ear hears
