Tutoring for Everyone

When working with children with ADD/ADHD, all lessons will be presented in small segments with a lot of interaction in order to maximize the child's attention span. Activities and lessons will incorporate movement and strategies appropriate for keeping the child's attention. Your child will learn how to organize their thoughts and ideas, as well as their materials in order to be successful. I have spent the past twelve years working with ADD/ADHD children helping them focus their efforts on their academic classes and improving their grades. I have worked as an afterschool tutor for over 17 yea Read more


Ryan

Tutoring & Teaching Experience (12 yrs.) - Math, Physics, Reading

In addition to my Learning Disability research focus on Dyslexia at Western Washington University, I have extensive experience working with students with ADHD. The reason I have acquired this knowledge and experience is because ADHD is highly co-morbid with Reading Disability (dyslexia), and other language disabilities. In fact, children with language disabilities are often misdiagnosed with ADHD as a root disability, when it is secondary to their language disability. Read more


Renee

Patient and Skilled Language Arts Tutor in Palm Harbor

As a certified special and elementary education teacher, I have taught quite a few students with ADD/ADHD. In my experience, students with ADD/ADHD just need to be redirected and encouraged in a positive manner to stay on task. Also break things down into smaller parts and complete tasks a little at a time. It is also a good idea to limit the distractions around you as much as possible. Sometimes it helps to use a different kind of chair to sit on, like an exercise ball or allow them to stand at their desks if they need to. These are just a few of the methods that I have used when working with Read more

Matthew

Math Teacher/Professor (Certified in MI) with Masters Degree

I have great success for working with students with ADD and ADHD. Teaching high school I found these students to be generally well motivated by physical activity and consistently changing the modality of the students receiving the information. This is done by a well organized presentation that keeps the students knowing what to expect even though each lesson is different and only presented to the students specific needs. Parents of ADD / ADHD student will need to be more open to “unique methods” since the traditional setting is typically not a very good setting for the student to Read more


Tammey

Seasoned Michigan Tutor

I am a parent who has dealt with this diagnosis in my own sons for over 23 years. I also work in a Title I school and have had, for at least 20 of the teaching years, children with special needs in my classes who also have this diagnosis (some with medication, and some without prescribed medication). It is a balance between teaching styles that I use and students work to attain the necessary skills within the subject matter through the use of those methods. Some methods used are "hands-on" projects, computerized lessons, one-to-one lessons/basic skills, and some with paper/pencil tactics. Read more

30 years experience Writing Reading English All Ages

As the mother of a son diagnosed with ADHD-Pi in 5th grade, and having struggled through the failure of several medications and a school system overwhelmed with special needs students' responsibilities, I took it upon myself to educate my family and my son's teachers on his executive dysfunction challenges and help him develop coping mechanisms and study skills as well as self-advocacy leading to his successful completion of high school. As a result, I have tutored other students with ADD/ADHD and supported the families and the schools with these students. First-hand experience and a relations Read more
