When ADHD and Dyslexia Overlap

It’s not uncommon for a child to have both ADHD and dyslexia and when they do, it can create a unique set of challenges.

A student with dyslexia might struggle to decode words. Add ADHD, and that same student may also have trouble focusing, staying organized, or finishing assignments. One challenge can make the other harder and both can affect confidence, behavior, and motivation.

When both issues are recognized and supported, students can thrive.

The teachers at Cohasset Learning Studio take the time to understand the full picture: how your child learns, how they focus, and what tools will help them succeed. With patience, structure, and the right supports in place, we help students build skills and feel successful doing it.
