I have worked with many students who had ADD/ADHD. I mostly work with dyslexic students, and 50% of dyslexics also have ADD/ADHD. The learning strategies have to be more hands-on, because sitting still and focusing for long periods of time is very challenging for these students.

Also, there is, many times, another problem such as dyslexia or dysgraphia, in addition, which is causing difficulty in school. Sometimes, there is not, but it's important to look at these Read more

Reading, Writing, Public Speaking, Study Skills and Stress Reduction

I am someone who has ADD/ADHD, and utilized some valuable subject and time-management techniques from URI's Student Services office during my matriculation. My techniques involves condensing study material to key words and concepts, tracking yourself as you are working on math problem to avoid skipping Algebraic terms or mistakes, and modifying time schedule to increase number of studying sessions while being effective. I have been a Rhode Island certified substitute teacher since January 2014, and demonstrate these techniques when possible in my classes! I was working on my teaching certif Read more
