Special Education is one of my top subjects! Extensive work with K-3rd grade students with special needs: OHI, LD, ED, AUT, SP/L, OT, PT, ODD, ADD/ ADHD

My greatest accomplishment as an educator is having made a difference in the lives of students by helping them achieve.... and by being available along the learning pathway to push, nudge, encourage, push some more - and then celebrate the learning accomplishments, large and small! I have many areas of expertise, and a wide degree of experiences from which to draw. I am now taking early retirement from full-time teaching, so I am available to work with students in small groups or 1:1 to continue to be a part of this amazing field of TEACHING!!
