Dear Teacher,

In a recent ADDitude survey, less than half of educators said they receive formal training to help them understand and effectively teach students with ADHD and its comorbid conditions. This is unacceptable. So, as a first step, ADDitude has created this guided, curated email learning series to equip educators with accurate, up-to-date information about ADHD, plus realistic and effective solutions to the specific academic and behavioral challenges associated with ADHD in the classroom.

Your training will begin immediately with an introduction to ADHD and executive dysfunction, what these looks like in the classroom, and how a teacher can tranform the learning and happiness of neurodivergent students. Each week, you will receive a new lesson about effective accommodations, common learning differences associated with ADHD, effective teaching strategies for different learners, encouraging consistently positive behavior, and much more…

PART ONE: Understanding ADHD and Executive Function
PART TWO: Accommodations and the Parent Relationship
PART THREE: Learning Challenges
PART FOUR: Focusing and Following Directions
PART FIVE: Better Behavior
PART SIX: Organization and Time Management
PART SEVEN: Addressing Hyperactivity
PART EIGHT: Motivation, Emotions, and Self-Esteem
PART NINE: Homework and Studying
