As a child Sebastian was diagnosed with ADHD. The reading specialist in his school taught him the Five-Part Reading System. He learned to highlight main ideas, summarize, and review his notes for optimal understanding and retention. He also learned how to incorporate frequent breaks and set goals to increase motivation. He has decided to go to school to become a school psychologist. As he takes psychology courses, he faces a new challenge in interpreting research and data beyond recall. He works with a tutor in the learning center, but he cannot rely on his tutor to come up with critical thought and analysis, which must be his own. His usual strategies are not producing the intense focus he needs in this type of coursework. He knew college would be more challenging, but he is starting to
