About the course

Do you have a student who is “gifted but easily distracted”? Or perhaps you’re looking for effective ways to support children who struggle with attention and focus? This course is for you! Led by experienced educator Joanna Nienałtowska-Padło, this training offers hands-on guidance and practical strategies to help students with ADD succeed in the classroom.

Course Description

Attention deficits can affect students, parents, and teachers at every stage of education. Learners with ADD often face difficulties with focus, organization, and everyday functioning. These challenges can impact academic performance and peer relationships.

In this course, you’ll gain a clear understanding of what Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) is —how it manifests itself in school settings and how you, as an educator, can respond to it with empathy and effectiveness. You’ll explore concrete tools, teaching techniques, and simple exercises that make daily learning more manageable for students with attention difficulties.

This course is designed for teachers, classroom mentors, special educators, and school psychologists who want to work more purposefully and confidently with students who require focused support.

What You’ll Gain

A strong theoretical foundation of what exactly ADD and other attention-related challenges imply
An insight into the common symptoms and underlying mechanisms of attention deficits
