Special Education is one of my top subjects! I have a mild/moderate special education credential, multiple subject credential since 2000, Masters in special education, autism authorization, and have worked both as a Resource Specialist and an SDC teacher creating, monitoring and updating IEP programs and goals. I work on study skills, work habits, fine motor skills, organization, social skills and cuing as they pertain to academics and every day interactions, as well as interest/career direction testing.
