[quote=Anonymous]My twice exceptional ex-preemie with ADHD, ASD, low processing speed and dyscalculia repeated a grade in elementary school, then got so bored he skipped back to his age group. Then in middle and high, we hired tutors for him, first in writing, because his ADHD made it very hard for him to overcome writer's block and organize his thoughts on paper; then in math, because he had been receiving math support from us all throughout his life, but it got a little burdensome and we were relieved to have tutors take over :-) Socially, it's a bit fraught to have him repeat a grade at his age. I would do intensive tutoring year round, even in the summer. I think it will be significantly more efficient, OP. His inattention means that any group learning in class will have its limits.
