This class was so helpful! The book is accessible and organized in a good way. You have to realize the book is not one size fits all and your students have unique factors that could impact how ADHD shows up for them. The facilitator had original and creative ways that you could show your learning. This class helped me think of structures, scaffolds, and how to connect with my ADHD students in ways that show their assets and build their confidence. Highly recommend!

This course was amazing! The book read more like a novel rather than a textbook, which made is much easier to read after a full day's work. The assignments were all meaningful and can easily be translated into the classroom. I also loved how the instructor gave multiple options in how we could present our assignments. Highly recommend!

This class is a guided read through the book ADHD is awesome. It gives teachers an opportunity to apply adjustments to instruction and their classroom environments to benefit students with ADHD (and as a result all learners). Reccommend!
