While I coach adults with ADD, not children, those adults often have children with Attention Deficit Disorder. ADD is the number 2 inherited genetic condition after height 80%. Hint to teachers, if a child has ADHD it's important the parents get screened for it too, if not for themselves for the benefit of their child. If mommy or daddy are in denial about their ADHD, their ADHD children will have worse outcomes at school and home, and it'll be harder for their teachers. Here's a quick Adult ADHD Screening test, and 10 ways to manage adult ADHD.

Here's a list of 40 practical articles and Ebooks to help teachers of students with Attention Deficit Disorder learn better, improve the whole classroom environment, reduce the teacher's stress, and the ADHD student's stress as well. As someone who used to be a teacher for 5 years, I prefer to focus on the practical vs. theoretical articles.

Keep in mind that while there are some commonalities, all students with Attention Deficit Disorder are unique. Some have many problems in schools, some have few, some struggle greatly and some do very well. I have ADHD and I made the dean's honours list in University and had one of my essays published (there was occasional struggle involved and lots of procrastination and stress). It would have been a much easier road for me if I were taught using some of these methods.

For example, there's a Mensa Special Interest Group on ADHD that has 530 members, and there's many adults with ADHD who have PhD's and teach in place like Harvard.

The American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry (AACAP) estimates that all teachers have in their classrooms at least one child with ADHD.
