Sylvia S. - New York Special Needs Caregiver

Profile of Sylvia S.

Part-Time, 1 Year of Experience

I interned at the Special Educational Needs Counseling and Drama Therapy Center in Accra, Ghana for a semester when I studied abroad there. I am studying Psychology and Child and Adolescent Mental Health at NYU, and hope to teach special education before continuing on to graduate school for counseling or clinical psychology to do therapy with children.
Related Hobbies and Interests
I am passionate about the arts (including music, theater, and photography) and love to integrate them into my teaching. I have experience tutoring and baby-sitting, and was a counselor for several different camps.
