"I'm a 33 year-old divorced father of 4 children. I've been diagnosed with ADD. My math level is about grade 2 and my other subjects are grade 12. How can I overcome this?"

Contact the special services coordinator or sometimes called Office for Disabilities at your university. These services are offered throughout Canada and the United States on a university or college campus.

These are trained professionals who understand and work with learning disabilities. They can guide you to a variety of support services, tutoring, further testing and even set up someone to teach you some different math strategies based on your strengths.

Never give up; you are a model for your 4 children.
