  • Peer Tutoring Peer tutoring is one of the more effective strategies for students with ADHD, because it provides many of the same supports as one-to-one instruction. It facilitates the acquisition of both academic and social skills. Peer tutoring is most effective when training is provided to participating students (Piffner, 2011). Tutors need to be taught how to be prepared with materials needed for the session and how to give positive and corrective feedback to their partner (Greenwood & Delquadri, 1995).

Number of Directions: Give a minimal number of directions or steps at a time. If necessary, have students repeat the directions to the teacher or a peer partner. Form of Directions: Provide written directions or steps, or a visual model of a completed project. Teach students how to refer to these items as reminders of process steps to complete tasks. This strategy is particularly helpful for long-term projects.
