New
Techniques and approach to disconnective behaviors
such as autism, aspergers, ADD and ADHD
Christian
had symptoms of ADHD, and mild autism when he
enrolled in my therapeutic tutorial program. We
weren't making ample progress with my usual miracle-tutoring
techniques, so I knew what we had to do. We had
to bring him out from his separate world and into
ours. As predictably successful as the others,
Christian struggled through to eventual victory
over his symptoms without medication. Here is
a review of his 'focus program' as it unfolded:

Children
are Being Taught to Memorize
without
Understanding
Teaching a classroom has little
in common with individual tutoring. When teaching
a class, it isn't possible to know how one child
is really doing or to give the individual help
that is needed. Effective tutoring requires more
than just knowing ‘how' the student is doing;
it takes knowing what is
or isn' t
being understood and why, and what to do at any
given moment. More

Punishment
and Lying
Often parents
turn to me for help with this and my first step
is to provide the parents with understanding,
solutions, and roll-play with them before expecting
them to effectively help their child. Then it's
quite a simple task to bring about a sense of
honesty and integrity in all of their children.
