Kathy Poon is a former kindergarten teacher with over 20 years of experience in early childhood education and is currently a picture book instructor. She is the mother of an 11-year-old son with ADHD and has been actively learning about ADHD through her involvement with the Let’s Talk ADHD platform. Over the years, she has witnessed her son's continuous progress while also recognizing her own growth in the process.
As a picture book instructor, Kathy has taught children with special educational needs (SEN) of various ages. She firmly believes that every child possesses unique talents and abilities, though sometimes these potentials have yet to be fully discovered. She advocates that educators, instructors, and parents should use a variety of methods to help children find their own stage and guide them in developing a positive attitude toward life.
This year, Kathy has been invited again to host a talk during ADHD Awareness Week and is honored to be a guest speaker, sharing her experiences of the challenges and joys of raising a child with ADHD. The theme of this year's Awareness Week is "Empowering Families: Turning ADHD Challenges into Strengths," Kathy will speak about how encouragement, acceptance, and support from family members can empower children to face challenges and create a loving and harmonious family environment, laying a solid foundation for them to develop the right values in life.
Through this opportunity, Kathy hopes to collaborate with various sectors of society to gain a deeper understanding of the inner world of children with ADHD, ensuring they are no longer overlooked. Whether academically or emotionally, she hopes that these children will receive more attention and support to create a bright and meaningful life of their own.
