Tutors for ADHD
Tailored teaching methods, personalised strategies, and adapted learning environments can help manage distractions and optimise learning potential for those with ADD/ADHD symptoms.
Understanding ADHD
Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) are neurological conditions impacting attention, behaviour, and impulse control. Typically diagnosed in childhood, these disorders can persist into adulthood.
Symptoms of ADD/ADHD
The symptoms of ADD/ADHD include inattention, interactivity, and hyperactivity. Is your child easily distracted and disorganised, do they have difficulty concentrating, are they forgetful or appear not to be listening?
With impulsivity, they will find it difficult to take turns, might act without thinking, and interrupt frequently.
Children with ADHD often show signs of hyperactivity: excessive talking and physical movements and struggle to stay seated.


Would a one-to-one tutor help my child with ADHD?
Individualised attention from a tutor can significantly benefit those with ADD/ADHD symptoms. Tailored teaching methods, personalised strategies, and adapted learning environments can help manage distractions and optimise learning potential.

I strongly believe in the Maslow hierarchy of needs model and embrace the idea that basic needs need to be met before learning can take place.”

Understanding Violent Outbursts at Home: A Trauma‑Informed Guide for SEND Families
When violent outbursts happen at home, it can leave families feeling frightened, isolated, and unsure where to turn. But none of this means you’re failing. It means you’re carrying an extraordinary load, often without enough help.

School Culture, Autism, and the Changing Landscape of Neurodiversity
School culture around autism and neurodiversity is evolving, but it’s not finished. Young people are noticing the improvements, but they’re also feeling the gaps. Their voices remind us that inclusion isn’t a policy, it’s a lived experience.
