[quote=Anonymous]I have an ADHD/executive function issues sophomore who is still struggling with high school.  He struggles both with the classes (good at English, crap at everything else including electives) and midterms/finals.  We got him a tutor for math since that seems to be his weakest subject but he still bombed his mid-terms for all classes even with a set study schedule and study guides.  I am pretty much at the end of my rope with him and trying to figure out his needs.  He is at a private school (but has an IEP)  already so he is in small classes with teachers giving support.  He is generally a B/C student, so I am not looking for As for him but am hoping to get him to need less hand holding and work on study skills.

I am just not sure what to do any longer.  I think we need a tutor who will work with him on all subjects each week. Does a person like that exist?

He is very happy at the school and has great friends.  Hasn't fallen in with a bad crowd.  Not doing drugs or drinking and generally a happy kid.  He actually likes going to school so I am hesitant to move him plus not even sure where to move him if we were going to since he is already in private.

Any ideas?[/quote]
