The main content of the questionnaire was the teachers’ views on the cognition degree, teaching strategy and support measures of students with ADHD tendency. SPSS23.0 software was used to record and analyze the data.

At the same time, however, some teachers have adopted positive strategies, such as providing additional tutoring and support, and establishing clear rules and time management methods. These teachers have achieved some success in helping students improve their learning effectiveness and adaptability.

Conclusions
