About Will
Neurodevelopmental Disabilities
Intellectual Disabilities
WillTutor tutors students with intellectual disabilities (i.e., with intellectual developmental disorder). We tutor such clients whether they are just at the disorder’s onset, in the developmental period, or beyond the onset. This disorder impairs both intellectual and adaptive functioning in cognitive, social, and practical domains. WillTutor addresses these deficits with its tutoring method of providing rules in thinking and adhering to them. Deficits in intellectual functioning include reasoning, problem-solving, planning, abstract thinking, judgement, academic learning, and learning from experience. WillTutor’s approach concerns all these areas specifically and thus provides a kind of therapy for the intellectual deficits. The disorder also has deficits in adaptive functioning that result in failure to meet developmental and sociocultural standards for personal independence and social responsibility. WillTutor provides at least one kind of support for these deficits that limit functioning in many activities of daily life (such as communication, school participation, and independent living) and across multiple environments (such as school, home, work, and community). WillTutor helps those with this disorder - whether to individuals who are in the development of this disorder or are way advanced in it; since the disorder is diagnosed based
on its severity (mild, moderate, severe, profound), WillTutor addresses the needs of such students accordingly.
Language Disorder / Communication Disorders
WillTutor works with students who have communication disorders. One of these is language disorder (DSM-5 315.39, F80.9). Since this disorder involves “persistent difficulties in” language use across modalities (i.e., spoken, written) due to “deficits in comprehension or production”, WillTutor addresses these particular deficits - since vocabulary is deficient, vocabulary building is emphasized; since sentence structure and syntax are deficient, that too is noted. WillTutor generates lexical semantic entries for all of its students, regardless of their mental capacities and limitations. The goal is to correct by giving rules where there is no such order.
Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder
WillTutor has at least ten years of tutoring experience with ADHD students. ADHD, says the DSM-5, is “[a] persistent pattern of inattention and/or hyperactivity - impulsivity that interferes with functioning or development”. Because ADHD’s diagnosis requires at least two settings where functioning is compromised due to symptoms, WillTutor provides choices for tutoring settings. WillTutor can maximize the utility of tutoring by finding the setting that works best. In terms of psychotherapy, WillTutor is a tutor, not a therapist. Most of the clients that WillTutor has tutored have had some kind of cognitive deficit. We are familiar with the kinds of problems common to ADHD - sustaining focus, selectively focusing, poor concentration, inability to sustain attention, etc.
Autism Spectrum Disorder:
I have tutored clients with Autism Spectrum Disorder for fifteen years. I am familiar with the psychiatric diagnosis and I work around its symptoms. I tutor clients with intellectual disabilities (i.e., with intellectual developmental disorder). I tutor such clients whether they are just at the disorder’s onset, in the developmental period, or beyond the onset. This disorder impairs both intellectual and adaptive functioning in cognitive, social, and practical domains. I address these deficits with its tutoring method of providing rules in thinking and adhering to them. Deficits in intellectual functioning include reasoning, problem-solving, planning, abstract thinking, judgment, academic learning, and learning from experience. My approach concerns all these areas specifically and thus provides a kind of therapy for the intellectual deficits. The disorder also has deficits in adaptive functioning that result in failure to meet developmental and sociocultural standards for personal independence and social responsibility. I provide at least one kind of support for these deficits that limit functioning in many activities of daily life (such as communication, school participation, and independent living) and across multiple environments (such as school, home, work, and community). I help those with this disorder - whether to individuals who are in the development of this disorder or are way advanced in it; since the disorder is diagnosed based on its severity (mild, moderate, severe, profound), I address the needs of such students accordingly.

I generate lexical semantic entries for all of its students, regardless of their mental capacities and limitations. The goal is to correct by giving rules where there is no such order. (See my ADHD write-up for this kind of neurodevelopmental disability.) I am not trained in helping students with motor disabilities at this time.

Most of the clients that I have tutored have some kind of cognitive deficit. I am familiar with the kinds of problems common to ADHD - sustaining focus, selectively focusing, poor concentration, inability to sustain attention, etc. I am also familiar with the kinds of agents, that is, stimulants, that ADHD patients have. (There are actually lots of new medications available now for this disorder.) I can coach and counsel patients that have this disorder.
