ADD/ADHD
I have more than 10 years experience working with ADD/ADHD individuals. Most of my experience has been with elementary-age students who required special assistance because of the diagnosis. I have learned various techniques to help keep them engaged and focused, and I am a very calm and patient instructor. Much of my session is hands-on and allows a positive outlet for their energy. I also like to incorporate games, puzzles, art projects, computer time and other tactile lessons to keep them interested and learning. I currently tutor a 6-year-old recently diagnosed by ADD and have a great relationship with him and his family. I think it takes a very kind, caring and intuitive person to truly help individuals with this disorder. I feel I am one of the people, and I love seeing the positive results and the difference I've made.
