Three of the best treatments for ADD are one-to-one tutoring, high motivation, and novelty. People with ADD typically can focus in a one-to-one setting while they become distractible in a group setting such as a classroom, the workplace, or a party. Also in settings where the individual is highly motivated, the symptoms of ADD often disappear. And novel settings—unusual or new places—can stimulate the person with ADD to such a degree that their attention becomes focused.
