After first grade she had continued to fall behind. School work overwhelmed her and was often brought home to be completed along with her assigned homework. It took her hours to do everything even with help and she was frustrated every evening. Then we had her tested at LearningRx. At the beginning of 5th grade. She has completed the Read program. Her dyslexia always made reading difficult for her, although she loved to be read to and had great comprehension skills when she listened to this story.
Having ADHD can make it difficult to focus and concentrate, ignore distractions, and control impulses. The good news? Attention skills can be strengthened with the right kind of training.
Interventions for ADHD need to target more than attention, though. In fact, those that focus only on attention are missing the boat! Research shows working memory, long-term memory, and processing speed are also problematic for those with ADHD.
At LearningRx, we strengthen all the cognitive skills needed to help kids with ADHD make the most of their unique talents!
