I have a degree in psychology and have taken many courses on child development and child psychology as well as abnormal psychology. I myself have also grown up with ADHD which has given me direct experience and a unique insight into the subject. Through my life I have consistently taken every opportunity to learn more about ADHD and the different coping strategies which exist. I have attended many workshops about ADHD and have completed certifications such as mental health first aid and mental health first aid for children. I also have created multiple recreation programs for children with exceptionalities.

45 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.
