Here are some ways people with ADHD can improve their listening skills:
- Reward yourself for focusing - set yourself a time limit, like 10-15 minutes, and really pay attention. Find a little reward you like, such as a Hershey's 'Kiss" or a special sticker, and give yourself one each time you succeed at listening for the whole time! Soon, you will be able to listen for longer and longer.
- Write down the important things you hear - listen for terms that are defined, and for sentences that the teacher repeats or stresses.
- Find some way to make what you are listening to mean something to you -- if the teacher is going to be talking about plants, before they start listening, think of all you know about plants, how plants are important to you, and what plants you like best (like vegetables or fruit to eat, or flowers to look at and smell)
