ADHD is a common condition, affecting 6.4 million school-aged children in the United States alone. Children with ADHD are likely to have a hard time focusing, remembering directions, and paying attention, while, at the same time, displaying hyperactive and impulsive behavior. This behavior can interfere with learning, leading to a poor academic performance.
Children that have ADHD can suffer for several years before their parents and teachers realize that something is standing in their way to success. If your child has recently been diagnosed with ADHD, you are probably wondering what you can do to help them reach their full potential. Luckily, once your child’s learning challenges have been identified, there are some very effective tools and therapies to assist children and teens learn successfully with ADHD. |
An educational therapist is a professional that can provide students with the skills they need to help improve their academic performance. They are trained to understand learning challenges, patterns, and behaviors that a child has created to hide their shortcomings. Some examples of these patterns can include avoidance, tantrums, acting out, oppositional behavior, skipping class, hiding homework, and so on. There are many effective interventions and strategies that educational therapists use to address the skills the student is missing and build on their strengths. At the Bay Area Center for ADHD, our clinicians implement individual plans to help students develop the underlying skills that are essential for learning and succeeding in school. |
