Class experience
This class is designed for autistic students by me, an autistic teacher, along with feedback from other autistics. I was undiagnosed until age 21 but I always knew I was different and didn't know why. Once I found out I was autistic, it was life-changing for me because I was able to understand not only why I was different but also that I wasn't broken and that were others like me. Being able to reach out to the autistic community has been an amazing resource for me and many other autistics...
I am an autistic adult who has been working with autistic children and children with other disabilities for 13 years. I have my associate's degree in special education and am passionate about helping children reach their full potential. Every autistic person is different so it is important to add that, aside from my own experience as an autistic adult, I have worked with over 500 autistic children, both in-person and online; all of whom are in different places on the spectrum and have unique strengths and challenges.
Students do not need to have an official diagnosis to join. However, I do ask that they are aware of being autistic or aware of the possibility of being autistic. If you need help explaining autism to your student, check out my "What is Autism?" class which is available for ages 4-7, 8-12, and 13-18. Some students may require supervision during our more active games such as freeze dance, Simon says, and other active games.
