Misunderstood Minds Case Study Nathan Vanhoy

According to the Misunderstood Minds, the first case study shows about Nathan Vanhoy with phonemic awareness which innate inability to distinguish among the different sounds that together creates words. He was a Leader and great athletic among his friend. Even Though, Nathan was really good at expressing himself but he gets stuck while reading and writing. His parents thought he was very functional and active at home however, he was given tests by his teacher to show his parents what was really going on. So, Nathan repeated the first grade.

She draw pics instead of doing hws. Writing poems are her creativity and strength. She barge in to others conversation which lacks discipline. She needed a coach to teach her discipline and to be organize which her parents got her. She was prescribed the medicine Ritalin by the Doctor which would make her dopamin recharged and restore focus. However, her father avoid risking her daughter’s life and looked for another solution which was moving her to a Charter School, a new environment. Putting her into a new environment helped for a while but then the old came back. One of the important thing that bothered her the most just like before was peer pressure which was not having any friends, loneliness.

This is exactly, how Adam felt. He was expelled from school and felt that he can’t do anything or nothing can be done by him. He was ashamed of his deficiency which made him turn into alcohol and drugs. When he needed money, he stole from his house. At last, he was arrested for breaking in and attempting murder which led him stay in the jail until he became an adult. Psychiatric court, if he is guilty he is going to be custody of the state until he is an adult. While staying at jail, he was put in two special Education classroom where he was number one student who understood texts and concepts better than others. One of his strength was the environment because if his High school environment was supportive of his deficiency then he wouldn't had to be in jail. After returning from jail, he went back to school but after a while he was expelled from the school because of his poor behavior. I think one approaches that would help is motivation and a learning environment where he won’t have to feel that he is dumb and stupid. Which
