A few things to do:
1. Electronics are out of bounds. Not a single second of the week or he will have a relapse. Usually most kids these days have no appetite to learn because they get too high a dosage of dopamine from electronics. It takes the joy out of learning, out of chores and out of going outdoors.
2. Homeschooling is not school at home. Before homeschooling, always deschool for a couple of weeks and find out what type of homeschooling suits your family: Wildschooling, Natureschooling, Forestschooling, Gameschooling, Worldschooling, etc. the list goes on. My kids and I have settled for JesusSchooling where the Bible is the textbook and we go through the Bible from Gen to Rev each year with all subjects intertwined into it.
3. If he is not on electronics, you're done deschooling, and he is still having an issue, the problem is the curriculum (and yes, there are plenty of workbook curricula out there). So try Sonlight.
4. If you still have issues after all this, talk to me.
All the best
