I had the pleasure of working with many wonderful people while teaching Special Education for 20 years. My years of experience have taught me to have patience, to be flexible and the importance of communication. I have truly appreciated the learning I have gained from each student and every family that I have worked with. Being flexible and getting to know each person is important. Everyone is different, so it is important to get to know each clients' interests, strengths, and weaknesses so I can find ways to encourage them to reach their dreams. Lifelong learning should be a fun journey of exploration and discovery. I love all kinds of animals and have reliable transportation.
