Given the wrong circumstances... ANYONE can have learning problems.
Given the right circumstances... ANYONE can learn.
Sydney SauberThank you for visiting my web site! I'm Sydney Sauber, and through NO SLIP Educational Solutions, LLC, I provide “Successful Learning Solutions” for parents, students and educators affected by issues related to Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and verbal and non-verbal learning difficulties.
I show young people, caregivers and educators how to use their individual strengths to compensate for weaknesses, succeeding in previously daunting tasks. My unique approach—the product of 18 years' experience in the field of education, and a personal history of ADHD—has been successful in enabling children who have done poorly in special education programs to achieve greater academic success, even in a regular education setting. On this site, you will find articles, personal case histories and testimonials from those I have worked with, as well as linked resources and personal advice for children dealing with ADHD, LD, or learning style differences. Please feel free to contact me if you feel that I might be able to make a difference.

parents and children working togetherWhile the most obvious aspect of my work takes place directly with young people, in one-on-one sessions or group activities, it's vital for successful learning solutions to become part of home life. That's why I devote as much time in my work to work alongside and collaborate with parents and caregivers, modeling how they can adapt everyday routines to support their chidren's learning style, improve organization, and tackle any difficulties that arise out of school work, or navigating the school system.

My work with young people is designed to help them discover and acknowledge their strengths outside a formal educational environment, then use those strengths to address their weaknesses.

For Professionals Teaching: out of the mainstream into the ocean
workshopAlthough my approach is idiosyncratic, it shouldn't be regarded as a one-person crusade to encourage better understanding of how to address learning difficulties. I offer seminars and workshops for education, mental health, and corporate professionals, as well as parent groups. It is important for me to share the fruits of my own work in the hope that it helps other educators in their attempts to create more inclusive classrooms. Read more...
