Supporting Neurodiverse Students with Shane Saeed, Ed.D


Ever wonder how to create a classroom environment where students feel confident and ready to learn? Shane Saeed, a nationally recognized educator, shares her strategies for using consistent lesson structures to engage neurodiverse learners and build a more inclusive classroom.

Routines and predictability are not just ‘nice to have’—they’re essential. Research shows that structured environments reduce anxiety, especially for students with ADHD or executive function challenges. When students know what to expect, they can focus on mastering the content instead of figuring out what’s happening next.

In this interview, Shane explains how routines benefit both teachers and students:

  • Increased Engagement: Students thrive when they know how to “show up” every day.
  • Reduced Cognitive Load: Clear expectations let students focus on learning, not guessing.
  • Easier Planning for Teachers: Consistent lesson structures simplify preparation, saving time and reducing burnout.

Shane also delves into additional impactful topics, offering actionable advice on:

  • Incorporating movement into the classroom to boost focus and engagement.
  • Strategies for helping students complete and turn in homework effectively.
  • Tackling procrastination with manageable, practical interventions.
  • Leveraging AI tools and school portals to streamline student success.
  • Building meaningful relationships with parents through positive communication.

At Untapped Learning, we believe in equipping students with the skills to thrive in any environment, whether it’s breaking down complex projects into manageable steps or creating daily habits that lead to academic success. Shane’s approach aligns perfectly with these values, ensuring all students, regardless of ability, can shine in the classroom.
