Teen learners have a safe place to talk about learning disabilities/differences, issues that come up at school/home/work, self-advocacy, and compensations.

Class Experience

**As requested by "Real Talk" learners! New topic, more meetings, longer class!** In this class, teen learners will have a safe space to discuss what it's like to have a learning disability or difference, and the issues that come up for them personally, socially, in school, at home, and on the job. There will be one to two topics covered each week, with lots of discussion around these topics and how they affects the learners. 

Topics to be covered:
-Feelings - what emotions come up around...

Students will be able to discuss what it's like to have a learning disability or learning difference, and learn some compensatory strategies, self-advocacy skills, and how to deal with difficulties that arise around these differences.

As a professional speech-language pathologist since 2003, I have worked for years with teenagers, and have training to help discuss sensitive topics.
