This episode explains slow processing speed, defining it as the time it takes to take in and respond to information, and emphasizing that it is unrelated to intelligence. 

The podcast explores the challenges that individuals with slower processing speeds may face both in the classroom and at home, such as difficulty with timed assignments and fast-paced conversations.

However, it also highlights the strengths associated with slow processing speed, including strong critical thinking skills, creativity, and empathy. The episode then moves to the science behind slow processing speed, highlighting its neurological components. 

Finally, the podcast gives helpful support strategies to help students and those around them create structure and depth to learning and other activities to help students with slow processing speeds excel.
