Currently, a Special Education Teacher for high schoolers with amazing minds and talents. The majority of my experience comes from working with students with Autism (ASD). I also have experience coaching and leading professional development within the district.
I believe that learning should be fun and engaging & that standards and real life should intertwine as much as possible.
