Hi! I'm so excited to meet your family. I love sharing the joy of learning with others. I am a board certified special education teacher with a master's degree in Special Education from Arizona State University. I previously taught full-time for 12 years, students in middle and high school. I love teaching kids to read and have a knack for helping those who think they can't. I can use AAC devices and am trained in PECS, BoardMaker, and Wilson. I have experience creating communication and schedule systems. Collaboration is my favorite part of teaching; I love to learn ways to improve too. Let me help you decrease the stress, pressure, and intensity that raising kids brings through a collaborative model of child care.
