Homeschooling the Child with ADD
(or Other Special Needs): Your Complete
Guide to Successfully Homeschooling the
Child with Learning Differences by Lenore
C.Hayes
Reviewer:
A reader from Torrance, CA
United States
I wish I had Hayes's book when my son
was floundering in a public school
Independent Study Program. All the
"experts" told me he probably
had ADD, and that putting him in regular
school would take care of it. Hayes
explains in a clear, non-jargon way, what
is really going on with some children who
seem unable to learn in a regular
setting. Her advice is obviously
distilled from many years of practice.
Even though I now have a diagnosis of my
son's learning disorder, I learned more
still from this book. It has been helpful
not just in homeschooling my child with
special needs, but in homeschooling my
other son. After all, each child had his
or her unique way of learning.
