Final Thoughts • The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990 (P.L. 101-336) • Focus on strategies to enhance learning - don’t focus on the student’s disability. • If the Tutee is having difficulties don’t assume it is the subject matter. • Set a goal for yourself - Focus on strategy or support…not just the “solution”.
