"I am currently
working with students of all ages in an ABA intensive program at
a private school, as well as working with students who have been
identified as having other disabilities as well.
I do in-home service
as well with students who are autistic. I keep students with disabilities
overnight for parents that travel, or just want to get away. That
is a seperate price -- I do an assessment before the in-home services
are provided. I have started doing that with some of my former students,
and love it. I am able to see them in a different atmosphere than
while at school.
My strengths include
the ability to work with special needs students as well as general
education students.
I have been tutoring
for the past few years in my home, and the children I tutor have
benefited from my working with them a lot.
I earned my Masters
degree in Special Education from Longwood College in December of
2002.
I teach behavior skills
to students and study habit skills as well, if that is an area that
needs improvement.
I usually have all my
students set goals for themselves each week and when I meet with
them, we go over each goal and if it was met or not. This helps
the students care for themselves, and track their progress throughout
the week. It gives them responsibility as well, and that is what
is needed in all students.
My concentration is
working with Autistic students, and providing help for them not
only in the classroom but at home and in the community as well."
