Episode notes

Early academic challenges in subjects like math can initially lead to a lack of motivation and general apathy towards school. Negative experiences in one subject can cascade into disinterest in all areas of learning. However, seeking external support, such as tutoring, can help overcome these obstacles and foster success in other subjects. Ultimately, finding a passion in education can transform one's perspective and lead to a fulfilling career, highlighting the importance of perseverance and support in academic journeys.

Ann Dolin, M.Ed., explains what a sustainable system looks like and how it can be a game changer for a student with ADHD, plus proven strategies to help your child effectively use a calendar system, maintain organizational routines, and more.
