Teacher expertise and credentials
Having personal experience with ADHD has given me valuable insight into the challenges of managing attention, emotional regulation, and focus. This lived experience enables me to understand the unique needs of neurodiverse learners deeply and develop strategies that are both practical and empathetic. My compassionate teaching approach ensures that students feel supported while they build essential skills in emotional recognition, communication, and focus.
In addition to my personal experience, I have extensive training in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) as a Behavioral Interventionist, where I’ve worked closely with young children during their critical developmental years, starting from ages 2-3. I understand the importance of early intervention and am committed to supporting your child in thriving.
By combining my lived experiences with my professional training, I aim to create a comprehensive and nurturing environment that fosters growth and development for all learners. Together, we can work towards achieving their full potential in emotional recognition, communication, and social skills.Reviews
