You Don't Look Autistic! and Other Myths About Autism - Ages 14-18
Class experience
This is an interactive lecture-style class. I will be using a Google slide presentation to help me present the information and will give lots of opportunities for students to ask questions and share their experiences. Topics that will be covered "But you don't look autistic!" - Does autism have a "look?" (Spoiler alert: it doesn't!) What does it mean that autism is a spectrum? The tendency of the autistic community to prefer identity-first language (autistic instead of a person with...
I am autistic myself and have spent the last 10 years of my life working with autistic children as well as children with others disabilities in various capacities. I have been a pre-school teacher, a teacher's aid working one on one and in small groups with children who need extra help, a tutor, an in-home caregiver for a child with severe disabilities, and a community support worker for autistic tweens and teens. I also have an associate's degree in special education. In January 2020 I began leading social groups for autistic children on Outschool and now have many different age groups and options ranging from ages 3-18. I also teach several classes about autism and sensory issues all of which have received overwhelmingly positive feedback from parents and students alike. I have spent a lot of time learning about autism and how autistics tend to view the issues that will be discussed in this class. If you have any questions or concerns about my qualifications please message me or read the reviews of some of my others classes about autism.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
Disclaimer: This class was designed by an autistic adult (myself) and used feedback from other autistics as well. Although I am doing my best to present the views of the majority of the autistic community there are autistics with opposing opinions and I can not claim to speak for the entire autistic community.
https://www.altogetherautism.org.nz/autism-no-puzzle-nothing-wrong-with-us/ This link explains why most autistics are against the use of the puzzle piece symbol and do not want a "cure" for autism. Information for this class has mostly been gathered from years of interacting with the autistic community.
