Teaching style

Structure and consistency are trademarks of good classroom management in any classroom - special education or general education. I "specially target" students with disabilities with teaching resources. I love my little friends and during the year they become a part of my heart and family. I believe strongly in data tracking, evidence based practices, and meeting children where they are in order to take them where they can go.
