About
I am a teacher with a Masters degree in education and a special education certificate. I have been working with children/students for over 30 years in the Elementary setting. I am able to work with students with special needs to help develop learning tools to help them to learn.
I enjoy the challenges that come with working with students to help them to be able to succeed. When working with a student, I get to know them so that I can determine what type of learner they are. If one method does not work I will adjust my teaching to meet their needs.
