My comments on tutoring ADD/ADHD : Play attention provider.Play attention is a biofeedback, computer-based program for children with attention problems. It is designed to improve attention and teach skills necessary to engage and attend. There is built in fun to compare and try to beat previous game scores. Each session consist of 5 biofeedback successive games that are engaging, minimum of 2-3 times per week for one hour each day, which includes behavior interventions and coaching. In each game the child gets to see how his/her attention (or distracting behaviors) affect the characters on the screen and thus scores. As they see their progress they learn to recognize the relationship between distracting behaviors and their ability to focus. It takes an average of 40-60 hours to complete the program.
My success with the program has shown changes begin in just four weeks training . Also, Incredible long-term results like finishing homework on-time, ignoring distractions, less day dreaming, better grades, and better behavior are some of the long term payoff.
