In this class, students will learn  what ADHD is,  techniques to channel those impulses from ADHD into positive classroom behaviors, developing a more positive self image by managing impulse control caused by frustration. I am a teacher who has had success with helping students with impulse control. My teaching style is interactive so that I can keep the kids' attention.
