Practice tests and NCFEs (with answers) will give the confidence you or your child need to excel in class. My students are more likely to compare me ... Read more

In the last few years, I have worked with many students with ADD and ADHD. Every student is different, and one thing that I have learned in my teaching is that a strategy that doesn't work for one child or adult might be a good solution for another.

As a 35 year English teacher in Michigan schools, I have multitudinous strategies and experiences. I have taught too many courses in literature and composition to list them all, but they range from grades 7-12 and college and vary from remedial summer school classes to AP Literature and Composition. From teaching the aliterate and illiterate through eventual English professors, I've seen the high and low, dealt with the motivated and apathetic, taught the workforce and college bound. On-li...
