Is it really too much to ask the teacher to copy his own notes or something? I can't believe they are so unaccommodating even though he is diagnosed. I personally found it much easier to pay attention when teachers just handed out notes/sheets so that we didn't have to write at all (or just could take optional notes on the sheets). Today handwriting is so bad that I can't always read it afterwards.

This may also be worth checking out: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khan_Academy
It has courses in a lot of subjects that you can watch and practice online and it's completely free. It's also translated into Spanish. A lot of it is youtube videos so you can just start and stop at any time. It won't be a copy of the school's curriculum of course but it has quite a lot on the technical courses such as math.
