Dyslexics may experience problems with reading, maths, handwriting and may also have symptoms associated with ADD – Attention Deficit Disorder - such as staying focused or sitting still. The Davis Attention Mastery is a drug-free personalised programme for children and adults which acknowledges the ADD thinking style and works with it to enable a person to effectively address behavioural patterns which are negatively affecting their life.

It is common for ADD to be accompanied by other issues such as dyslexia, poor coordination or difficulties with maths. When this is the case, the Davis approach of tailoring programmes to meet individual needs and goals ensures that progress is made in the areas most meaningful to the student.

For clients with other learning problems, it may be recommended that they complete a Davis Dyslexia Correction programme and/or a Davis Math Mastery programme, after the Davis Attention Mastery Programme. The ideal approach would be fully discussed at the initial consultation.

The Davis Attention Mastery programme addresses issues relating to:

• Distractibility
• Tendency to excessive daydreaming
• Impulsivity
• Hyperactivity
• Behavioural issues
• Difficulty making friends
• Lack of awareness, or knowledge, of time
• Difficulty understanding instructions
• Difficulty with personal organisation and/or finishing things
