Reviews

Many secondary teachers do not get the necessary training to really understand and engage their students with ADHD, but this book addresses all their questions and gives practical answers as to how we can help ADHD students to learn and to thrive. Teachers can dip into it for help time and time again. * Lynn McCann, Autism, ADHD and PDA specialist teacher, trainer and author *
This book will be warmly welcomed by education professionals. Jannine has provided a thorough and well researched framework through which teachers can understand some of the challenges for learners with ADHD. Packed with practical strategies, underpinned by neuroscience, this is a must read for busy teachers who also see beyond the challenges and embrace children and young people with ADHD with all of their wonderful energy, creativity and potential. Highly recommend. * Colin Foley, National Training Director, ADHD Foundation, The Neurodiversity Charity *
