We had a very positive experience with Alissa as a tutor for our pod of 5th grade boys from January - June 2020. She cared a lot about the boys and worked hard to create meaningful activities for them. The pod experience was invaluable … More for all of our families during a difficult year and we were so grateful to have found this partnership! We also want to appreciate Craig for helping to match us with a tutor on very short notice after we had cycled through a few folks who were not able to see the commitment through. Thanks for sticking with us!

As an adult student diagnosed with a learning disability during grad school, I knew I needed help dealing with my Master's program's demanding workload.

We were introduced to a wonderful tutor: Mcedwyn. He and our son, a freshman in college, worked well together. As a result, our son’s grades significantly improved.

Cailin made Math accessible and understandable to her in a way that even her teachers had not been able to do. She differentiated reading, writing and math tasks and assignments to tailor them to my daughter’s unique learning differences. Not only did it have an effect on her grades and her work efficiency, but she finally could do her work with less anxiety. Even my daughter’s teachers used Cailin’s guidance to modify their work with her. But most importantly, she became my daughter’s favorite resource. I can’t say how invaluable Cailin has been to my daughter’s progress and well-being. I’d recommend her a million times over. She is a gem. -

UNLOCKING YOUR POTENTIAL WITH EXPERT ADHD COACHING
The Value of Expert ADHD Coaching in Unlocking School Success
ADHD coaching has developed as a significant resource for children with ADHD who want to thrive academically. By addressing the unique challenges faced by these students, our ADHD coaches can significantly enhance their school success.
Understanding ADHD: Symptoms and Challenges Faced by Students
ADHD is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects students and is characterized by symptoms such as inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. These symptoms can significantly impact a student’s ability to succeed in school and meet academic expectations. Let’s take a closer look at the most common signs and symptoms that students with ADHD typically face:
- Inattention: Students with ADHD may have difficulty sustaining attention and staying focused on tasks. They may struggle with completing assignments, following instructions, and staying engaged during classroom activities.
- Hyperactivity: Hyperactivity manifests as excessive restlessness, fidgeting, and difficulty staying still. Students with ADHD may have trouble sitting quietly, which can disrupt their own learning and distract their peers.
- Impulsivity: Impulsivity refers to acting without thinking or considering the consequences. Students with ADHD may blurt out answers, interrupt others, or have difficulty waiting their turn. These impulsive behaviors can disrupt classroom routines and hinder effective communication.
- Challenges with Organization: Many students with ADHD struggle with organization skills. They may have difficulty keeping track of assignments, managing their materials, and staying organized with their time and belongings. These challenges can lead to missed deadlines, lost assignments, and increased stress.
- Time Management Difficulties: Managing time effectively can be a significant challenge for students with ADHD. They may struggle with prioritizing tasks, estimating how long activities will take, and staying on schedule. This can result in rushing through assignments, incomplete work, and difficulties meeting deadlines.
It’s important to recognize that these symptoms and challenges do not indicate laziness or lack of intelligence. ADHD is a neurobiological condition that requires understanding and appropriate support to help students overcome these obstacles and reach their full potential.
At Themba Tutors, we understand the unique needs of students with ADHD and offer expert coaching to help them navigate these challenges successfully. Our ADHD coaches provide individualized strategies, support, and tools to empower students to thrive academically and overcome the hurdles associated with ADHD.

Benefits of Coaching: Improved Focus, Organization, and Time Management
Expert ADHD coaching provides students with a variety of benefits that directly contribute to their success in school. Our coaches offer individualized support, assisting students in enhancing their focus, organization, and time management skills. Here are some specific ways in which coaching can benefit students:
- Improved Focus: Our coaches work closely with students to develop strategies that help them stay focused and attentive during class. Through techniques such as mindfulness exercises and attention-building activities, students learn to control their impulses better and maintain concentration on tasks.
- Enhanced Organization: Many students with ADHD struggle with staying organized, leading to missed assignments, misplaced materials, and difficulty keeping track of deadlines. Our coaches guide students in developing organizational systems tailored to their needs, including creating schedules, organizing study materials, and using tools such as planners or digital apps.
- Effective Time Management: Academic success requires the ability to manage one’s time effectively. Our coaches teach students practical techniques for managing their time effectively, such as breaking tasks into smaller, manageable steps, prioritizing assignments, and using timers or schedules to allocate time for different activities.
By addressing these key areas of focus, organization, and time management, our expert ADHD coaching equips students with the necessary tools to navigate the academic challenges they face. With personalized support and strategies, students can overcome obstacles, improve their academic performance, and develop lifelong skills that extend beyond the classroom.
