Finding academic help for a child with ADHD can be challenging...
Identifying the right type of help a child might need, or the available resources can be overwhelming. It's difficult seeing a child struggle and even more difficult seeing solutions not work.
There is still a lot of misinformation and stigma surrounding attentional issues impacting academics, including ADHD and ADD, making it challenging to find accurate information and support. Educators can be overwhelmed and under-resourced with the learning needs of ADHD students in their classroom.

7 Questions that indicate if your child has potential learning challenges.
"From a therapeutic level, I understand how ADHD is directly tied to executive functions. I care about how my students think, not just what they need to know. That's a philosophical foundation for how we look at educational therapy with NILD."
"Today, kids brains are developing with a lot of instant gratification from technology, which doesn’t require much critical thinking. NILD educational therapies can help kids become critical thinkers."
