I have a Bachelor's in education and I am K-8 certified. While earning my Bachelor's degree I was required to complete various classes on learning disabilities. One of the courses was, Teaching students with ADHD and other learning challenges. I completed the course with a 4.0 I also have a Master's in education with an emphasis in Counseling. It was while earning this degree that I took a course on how the ADHD brain works. I completed the course with a 4.0 Since then, while homeschooling my own ADHD child I participated in an online course called "Pay Attention" ADHD through the lifespan. I also completed an online course called, "Teaching Students with ADHD" through South Seattle Community College.
