My experience working with special needs children includes: Worked individually with struggling students ranging from first through sixth grade. Struggles included behavioral(autism, ADD, ADHD, Bi-polar, developmental and learning issues), reading, math and writing challenges. Prepared lesson plans, error correction techniques, and data collection of student 's progress. Along with behavior management procedures for class and individual students. Provided students with the support and materials needed to achieve their set IEP goals. The following are quotes from supervisors regarding my performance: "Your help has been phenomenal. You have a gentle and kind manner, yet students always know what to expect them to do. They respond well to you, and have made much progress with your guidance." - 2nd grade teacher "Alicia was dependable and very pleasant to work with. She treated students with the respect they deserve and had excellent rapport with the faculty. I highly recommend Alicia for employment to work with young children." - Principal "Alicia had a calm demeanor, patience and built a positive relationship with her students.... and sought out every opportunity to further her skill through observation and district classes. If you desire to hire an aide who cares about children, who is a team player, who is willing to take direction, then you will want to highly consider Alicia." - Social Worker
