ADD/ADHD
During my tenure as a tutor, five children and adults have been under my tutelage for extended periods of time. I have studied ADD/ADHD as an undergraduate and as a graduate student. This disorder has three subtypes; namely, predominantly hyperactive-impulsive with six or more symptoms in the hyperactivity-impulsivity category, predominantly inattentive with six or more symptoms in the inattention category, and combined hyperactive-impulsive and inattentive with six or more symptoms from each of the two categories aforementioned. Some children with this disorder also have comorbid conditions, such as learning disability, conduct disorder, bipolar disorder, and anxiety and depression.
Aspergers
I have an undergraduate and a graduate degree in psychology and I have formally studied Asperger disorder. Asperger disorder is an autism spectrum disorder. Individuals with this disorder have social impairment, communication difficulties, and restrictive, repetitive, and stereotyped patterns of behavior. I have taught math and English to several children with this disorder.
