Kittie asked:


I will soon be tutoring a child that has ADHD and feel that this will pose a huge issue since the child will have a lack of interest to learn. Please give me advice on how I could control such a student while helping him in school as well. Thank you!
I am so sorry, thanks for clearing it up for me that children with ADHD just have a short attention span, not a disinterest in learning. I will be tutoring a twelve year old boy and do not think he is on medication. Thank you for everyone’s advice. So I will be sure to make lessons fun and exciting, keep it brief with breaks and rewards, and teach in small sections.

First of all he runs around like crazy. All the time. If he’s awake he’s running around. He’s also got a habit of climbing everything. I mean people, tables, chairs, on the counters, dishwasher, stove, he love to climb and I’m afraid he’s going to get hurt. Not only does he like to climb but he likes to jump. He will just get on the bed and jump in the floor. He will laugh and do it again. I can’t keep him interested i anything more than 5 minutes. He won’t watch tv, he won’t play a game unless it involves wreslting around and even if it don’t, he adds it in with pushing and grabbing, and he seems so hyper. He is also whiny. He will fuss over everything. He hardly eats. I think he may have milk allergy o lactose prblem, but still looking in to it. Does it sound like e has an add problem? It’s jsut that I read things online about it and he fits like every line of the toddler add/ Any advice?
he can say uh huh, yeah, dad, choo choo, grammy, and god. he won’t say mom or anything else.
his diet is not the problem. He is more or less a vegetarian meaning he will rarely eat meat. He loves fruits and thats just about all he eats along with potatoes. He dosn’t get a lot of sugars his fruit is al natural. He doesn’t get junk food or candy on a regular basis.
