Film: Normal Isn't Real

Every educator, parent, or anyone who touches the lives of children, should see this film.   - Educational Blogger.


NORMAL ISN’T REAL: Succeeding with Learning Disabilities & ADHD features four successful young adults sharing their stories of coming to terms with their LD and ADHD issues. These candid portraits take the viewer into the subjects' daily lives, showcasing their talents, venting their frustrations, and employing the strategies they use to manage their challenges and utilize their strengths. They come from diverse backgrounds, and their journeys are as unique and varied as the careers they have developed. They have all become experts on themselves and what they need to succeed.
