About
I am a special education teacher with 8 years experience of designing, implementing and assessing IEPS, that are tailored to specific students needs. Through differentiation, I have been able to boost students' reading and maths levels. Expert in positive behavior management strategies. I use ABA principal, FBA and PBS frameworks to cut disruptions, I use visual schedules to map out the sequence of the day to reduce the anxiety of transition. I utilize visual token boards that allow students to earn tokens that can be cashed out for either an activity of choice or a movie. I create a calm corner that is equip students with noise canceling headphones, weighted lab pads and fidget tools for sensory cooldown. When giving instructions, I use short direct sentences and give the students ample time to process and respond. I train paraprofessionals and general educators these strutegies to ensure continuity of support that the students receive. I collaborate well with Colleagues, specialists and parents.
