ADHD Coaching for K-12

Are you struggling to find the right support for your child with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)? Do you wonder how specialized 1:1 coaching could transform their educational experience from elementary through high school?

According to the CDC National Survey of Parents, ADHD diagnosis rates in the U.S. show significant variations by gender, race, and state. Boys are diagnosed more frequently (13%) compared to girls (6%). Racial disparities exist, with Black and White non-Hispanic children having higher diagnosis rates (12% and 10%, respectively) than Hispanic (8%) and Asian non-Hispanic children (3%). Across different states, the prevalence of ADHD in children aged 3–17 years ranges from 6% to 16%. Treatment approaches also vary widely by state, with 58% to 92% of children with ADHD receiving some form of treatment, 38% to 81% being treated with medication, and 39% to 62% receiving behavioral treatments.

ADHD coaching addresses these concerns through personalized support tailored to harness the 12 ADHD superpowers and tackle challenges like hyperfocus and differences in the ADHD brain vs. normal brain. ADHD coaching provides strategies for enhancing study skills and managing ADHD in school-aged girls. It’s essential to recognize and adapt to the unique aspects of ADHD, such as the differences between ADHD and ADD and the 4 ADHD symptoms that can lead to perfectionism.

By focusing on everything you need to know about ADHD, ADHD coaching equips students with 8 strategies to help a child with ADHD do schoolwork and top 6 homework tips for kids with ADHD. Coaches also teach how to create the best homework station for a child with ADHD and use tools like school planners, which are vital for keeping track. Beyond academics, they address behavioral aspects by showing ways to build good habits, break bad habits, develop strategies for ADHD and boredom, and ensure a comprehensive approach to managing ADHD at school.

TESTIMONIALS

I own a tutoring / educational consulting company myself.. I called to ask for help with my daughter who has sensory, adhd related issues. The woman on the phone was very honest with me and really guided me in the right direction. Most of the other companies I had called didn’t seem to understand what “multisensory” learning style means which is fine, but I’m assuming they wouldn’t understand my daughter’ learning needs. I wound up getting better services through my daughter’s school, but I’d recommend Themba to any parent with a child with special education needs.

Dr. Tamara provided great support to my 11 year old son with ADHD. She worked with him on morning and evening routines. She was professional and relatable and he bonded with her, allowing her to use their relationship to teach him “en vivo” as well as additional tools to help my son work through some socialization issues. He learned a lot and has benefited from her support. We may reach out at a next developmental stage if needed and hope she is available, but trust that Craig would find another good fit for our child if not. Craig listened carefully at intake, asking the right questions and later checked in to ensure things were going alright. A positive experience, highly recommend Themba Tutors.

Jacob has been such an integral part of Maya’s success with improving her organization and executive functioning. He partnered with us when Maya was just diagnosed with ADHD in 7th grade. Jacob gave us the support Maya needed through middle school and the application process for high school. Jacob is was very patient, creative, and encouraging to Maya. Without his help, we would have had a much more difficult road ahead of us. Maya is now transitioning to high school in person as a freshman.

Qi did a great job with my 14-year-old with ADHD. She helped her prioritize and pace herself to avoid becoming overwhelmed. Without her, my daughter probably would not have turned in some big pieces of homework at the end of the school year. I wish we had started with her earlier. Qi was calm and upbeat, and had lots of different strategies to try.
