ADHD Focus with David Pomeroy, MD Creating a collaborative relationship with your child’s teachers
As a parent advocating for your ADHD/neurodivergent child at their school, have you found it difficult to jump through all the hoops required by our school systems in order to get help? If there was a way to develop and maintain a collaborative approach with your child’s teachers, with the goal of helping your child succeed in school, would you want to know how to do it? Great! You are in the right place! My guest Frances Coppa, an ADHD Coach, parent of a child with ADHD, a person with ADHD herself, a former SpEd teacher and school principal, has developed a model which leads parents and teachers through the process of working together in creating a supportive environment and structure to enable your child to succeed in school, not simply in academics but in the social aspects of personal development as well.
