Graduate Student

Hi I am a graduate student getting ready to graduate in the fall and looking to help out families this summer. I have experience as a graduate student clinician in speech and language pathology working with many children of all ages and abilities and have worked as an ABA behavior tech and a one-one therapy support.
I honestly have never had true experience with children with "special needs", I am dyslexic and that has taught me I have to be patient with myself. I can be patient with others also. I am going to study Early Childhood Education this fall, and want to specifically get into "special needs".
