A short and insightful course, delivered via Zoom
Whether you’re a parent or teacher, it’s tough knowing how to support a child with ADHD.
Being the parent of a child with ADHD can certainly be difficult. Often it’s hard to understand what’s going on for them and to know how to help them. It can be very frustrating.
And standard teacher training does not equip teachers to deal with children with ADHD. They can seem unruly and disruptive. It’s hard to figure out how to support them without disrupting the rest of the class.
If you feel lost in how to support a child with ADHD, it’s not your fault. You simply haven’t been given the information you need.
In this course, you’ll receive practical advice on how to support children with ADHD, not just to get by, but to thrive in school and in life.
During the course, you’ll be joined by other parents and teachers who are learning how to support children with challenges including ADHD, Hyperfixation, Autism Spectrum Disorder, Dyslexia and Dyspraxia. As people with ADHD often face one or more of these additional challenges, this will give you a broader perspective on your child’s ADHD.
In the course, you will:
- Understand how people with ADHD experience stressors in their lives, which are often very different from things that would stress ‘normal’ people.
- Understand how these stressors affect behavior and learning.
- Learn how to identify and manage the specific stress factors affecting a given child. In fact, being able to recognize these specific stressors is a key to understanding and supporting a child with ADHD.
- Learn how to recognize subtle signs of stress early, so that you can avoid crises – making life easier, for everyone!
- Learn neurodevelopmental activities that enhance focus, reduce stress and support learning. These are activities that you can use at home and in the classroom.
- Understand how environmental factors may also cause stress. And learn how to manage those environmental factors to make life easier for the child.
- In addition to receiving practical advice on how to support your own child, parents will receive guidance on how to explain what you learn to your child’s teachers, so they can better support your child in the classroom.
- Teachers will receive guidance on how to apply what they learn immediately in the classroom.
- At Oxford Specialist Tutors we use the HANDLE® Approach to support students with ADHD. This course will give you an overview of that approach.
The group interactions between parents and teachers provide a rich learning experience and a community of support.
