I am currently completing my 8th year as an LBS1 (Special Education Teacher) and have obtained my ESL (English as a Second Language) Endorsement and TEFL 3, and am pursuing a Master's Degree in Curriculum & Instruction.
I have had the opportunity to work within a number of different settings and with a very wide range of age groups. I have experience working with individuals with special needs in the following grades: Pre-K, 1-5, 6-8, 9-12, Young Adult Programs, and Adult Care Facilities (Age 50+). Within schools, I have acted as an Academic Instructional Teacher, Self-Contained teacher, Case Manager, and Resource Teacher. I have specific experience with working with students with significant emotional and behavioral needs, Autism, OHI, Learning Disabilities, and so much more!
