HELLO THERE!
My name is Bella, and I am a certified teacher. I have taught in inclusive schools as well as behaviour schools for 20 years. I have always taught a variety of children with different disabilities, especially autistic and ADHD students. Teaching children direct strategies and techniques to manage their emotions has always been part of classroom management, and I used to do this at least once a day at circle time in my school.
I also hold a second degree in Social Work (2004) and a Level 3 Diploma in Children's Psychology (2019).
In addition, I have attended the following courses:
✨ Level 2 Diploma in Understanding Autism 2022
✨ Level 2 Diploma in Psychology 2019
✨ Mindfulness for Daily Living 2019
✨ Understanding Anxiety 2019
✨ Behaviour Management (in classroom) 2015
✨ NLP Diploma in Life Coaching 2014
✨ Effective Communication Techniques for Teachers (2014)
I have a daughter who is autistic, a husband who is dyslexic and has ADHD. I resigned from teaching in public schools two and a half years ago, and I started tutoring and doing interventions for autistic and ADHD children from my home and also online. I also teach ukulele and guitar on Outschool, which is my second passion.
My classes are fun, interactive, small groups of children where each child finds their voice and shines bright!
