REVIEW:

Working in a school district, especially during COVID, we see a lot of students that struggled. Grades are lower than normal and we are even hiring interventionists to help students bring scores up in Math and English. I really enjoyed reading Pamela's book and saw how her techniques could be applied across the board to help students bring their grades up. Unfortunately I have not been able to put these techniques into play, but look forward to trying them this upcoming school year.

Once I am able to do this I will come back and update this post with the results. But I expect them to work very well.

Meet the Author:

A former educator and owner/operator of learning centers, Pam Johnson was diagnosed ADHD and had most of the same problems in school that her students were having. She had learned over the years how to compensate for her different learning style and lack of organization, and knew what would work for her students .These compensation techniques were incorporated into her Centers. Her students went from D’s and F’s to A’s and B’s within 4-6 weeks. These compensation techniques were incorporated successfully into her Centers using her “Study Quick" System. Mrs. Johnson also started the first ADHD Support Group for Parents in Hixson, Tennessee to help parents learn to help their children quickly learn routines and structure at home without having to constantly remind them. Every parent who used these techniques and was consistent had immediate success!
