Traumatic Brain Injuries

What new studies have been done to help our Vets with TBI?

Hi Grant, Thanks for your question. I have no personal experience with TBI but this is a link to a Government site :

Is it possible that PTSD affected vets may have their learning styles altered?

Hi Jeremy, That's an interesting question. I know that studies have shown PTSD can affect memory and attention span which could possibly affect how the student learns. Best wishes for continued success in your teaching career.

I teach students that about 70% are returning Vets.I believe the answer to that question is
an emphatic yes.
Many of my students tell me they learn more and
retain more if they are shown how to do a task.
In many cases you may have to show them again after a few weeks.
