June Akers loves working with kids. Whether it’s instructing in the classroom, teaching private piano lessons, or helping her own four children navigate through life, helping kids learn and grow is a sweet spot in her life. While working with students she has come to realize that paying attention, focusing, and learning to stay on task is a real struggle for children, especially in today’s over-stimulating, tech-savvy world.
After 15 years of parenting a daughter with ADHD and having three very active sons, she and her daughter, Riley, have had some breakthrough discoveries. They have been life-changing in helping her very own Riley Madison learn important skills to tackle everyday life with an overstimulated brain. Can you guess who inspired her first book... the one and only Riley Madison herself!
June has a Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education and a Master's degree in Instructional Leadership, and is available for virtual author visits for elementary teachers or book clubs. She and her husband and four children live outside of Atlanta, Georgia.
