About Allison

I have experience in many educational settings. Some have been teaching dance, summer camps, aftercare, tutoring, and after my B. A., I was a teacher for elementary children with autism. I'd describe my personality as empathetic, creative, and extremely patient. I like working with kids because I am able to help them evolve into kind and independent humans! I'm looking for a job that offers flexibility doing what I love - helping others; and that offers a positive work environment. I started working with kids when I was 17 years old. I began by teaching dance and most recently was as a special education teacher for a group of elementary children with autism for MDCPS. In my spare time, I like to practice yoga and cook. One thing you should know about me is I am patient and kind with children. My #1 priority is teaching children to express their concerns, needs, and feelings. My skills include behavioral development, independent living skills, communication and compassion.
