A structured system to help teenagers with ADHD follow through
Many teenagers with ADHD already know what they need to do.
The challenge is getting started, staying on task, and following through consistently.
Pivot Eleven is designed to bridge that gap — by combining practical strategies, structured support, and real-time application.
The Pivot Eleven System
Pivot Eleven follows a clear, step-by-step process to help students move from understanding to action.
Step 1: Understand How You Learn
Students begin with an Executive Function Assessment to identify their strengths and challenges across key skills such as:
task initiation
organisation
time management
sustained attention
This creates a clear starting point and helps students understand: why school feels harder — and what to focus on first
Step 2: Learn Practical Strategies
Students access short, engaging video modules that explain each executive function in a way that is:
easy to understand
relevant to school
immediately usable
Each module is paired with a workbook to help students:
identify their own patterns
apply strategies to real situations
choose practical tools to trial
Step 3: Apply to Real Schoolwork
This is where change happens.
Rather than learning strategies in isolation, students apply them directly to:
homework
assignments
exam preparation
This ensures strategies are not just understood — but actually used.
Step 4: Build Consistency Through Structure
For many students, the biggest barrier is consistency.
Pivot Eleven provides structure through:
scheduled sessions
clear time boundaries
guided work periods
This helps students:
start tasks more easily
stay focused for longer
develop regular study habits
Step 5: Develop Independence Over Time
With repeated practice, students begin to rely less on external prompts and more on their own systems.
The goal is not ongoing support forever —
it is to help students build the skills to manage school independently.
What a Session Looks Like
Each session is designed to be focused, practical, and achievable.
15 MINS
Strategy & Discussion
Learn one practical skill (e.g. how to start an assignment or plan a task)
25 MINS
Focused Work Sprint
Students work on their own school tasks using a structured Pomodoro approach
5 MINS
Reflection & Reset
Identify what worked and set the next step
This structure helps students:
reduce overwhelm
build momentum
experience progress quickly
Why This Works for ADHD
ADHD is not a problem of intelligence or effort
It is a difficulty with executive functioning — the skills needed to:
