How can I be good in mathematics if I have ADHD?

In the classroom, the following strategies may help children with ADHD and math problems:

• rewriting problems in simpler language
• pointing out key words and concepts
• giving handouts so that children do not need to copy from the board
• explaining concepts in different ways, with links to "real-world" situations
• instructing children in specific problem-solving strategies
• helping children learn strategies with guided practice, review, feedback, and help
• giving children many chances to participate and be involved with lessons, such as small group learning or peer tutoring
• helping children express their understanding of concepts with guided questioning and support
