“Why can’t they just sit still and focus?!”

As you know all too well, your child with ADHD can be a handful. They just can’t seem to sit still and stay focused.

Other parents judge you without understanding what you’re dealing with.

You’ve followed the traditional, well-intentioned advice for improving their behavior. People tell you, “Just give them consequences, set boundaries, ground them, medicate them.” Which makes sense… but often just doesn’t work.

Your child is just as frustrated as you are.

Nobody seems to understand them. It may not look like it but they are probably fighting to get good grades, fit in, and “be normal”, but it just doesn’t work like that.

It’s not your fault.

You’ve been doing all you can to help them.

You may have tried behavioral solutions, a change in diet or medications, and you may have seen improvement in function. However, if your child is not thriving, perhaps what you tried so far is not enough.

Here’s the reality…

They not only need to learn how to fit in with the expectations of other people, but to discover the strengths of their special abilities and how to use them to their advantage.

And the only way to achieve this is to get personal guidance from a specialist who actually understands how to help with ADHD, how to manage it, and most importantly, how to work with your child to find what will work best for them.

They may have struggled with learning not so much because various methods didn’t help them fit in, but because they have different learning styles that need to be accommodated.

For those with ADHD, there are specific secrets to succeeding in school… and in life.

Think about it. ADHD is a genetic trait that has evolved over millions of years and appears in every country around the world. So it must have an evolutionary advantage, or it would have died out. Your child just needs to learn what that evolutionary advantage is and how to use it to their benefit.

Here are some of the secrets to success:

They need to move in order to learn.
Most people with ADHD benefit from recording their lectures and listening to them while taking a walk or working out.
Some benefit from using noise-cancelling headphones or playing white noise, music and nature sounds to increase their focus. Others do better with loud rhythmic sound tracks to keep them focused.
Rather than seeing ADHD as a lack of attention, it is a need and ability to take things in quickly and move on. They learn best in short bursts, and multitasking actually improves their focus!

What is it that we do?

The understanding of ADHD is constantly evolving. Our approach is not medical. We support the individual to make the most from the gifts they have been given: help them use their differences as strengths! We also work to help them understand and mitigate the challenges they face. This is appropriate whether or not they are using medication.

We don’t teach the kind of subject matter than you can look up in a book. We’re here to teach your child how to learn more efficiently: taking in and processing information, and communicating and applying their insights effectively. We teach them to adapt what they’ve learned as their courses get progressively more complex. Our purpose is to help them become independent life-long learners.

Even a little bit of success often has an immediate impact on the quality of life at home.

All their life, they have been told that their ADHD is a problem. We can show them how to turn it into a superpower.

We suggest you use these four steps to achieve success with your child with ADHD:

Investigate with us what’s really going on.
Develop your child’s true learning potential through an individualized neurodevelopmental home program.
Work with a specialist ADHD tutor who actually understands what ADHD is, to develop strategies for effective learning
Apply what you’ve learned to help your child become an effective, independent lifelong learner.
