I have volunteer with adults and young children with disabilities ranging from 5-80 years of age. I was a teacher's assistant for special kids for 4 years when attending high school. I was also part of the Special Olympics, showing children how to swim. I also attended a camp for the disabled and was an assistant camp counselor. I am a swim instructor and teach kids with and without disabilities on how to swim. I have a passion for the people I work with and want to continue in this major to become a teacher for special needs.

    Candy is a swim instructor for Sandpiper Swim School. She works with children with and without special needs and is one of our top instructors. She is punctual and takes initiative to take care of tasks when she sees they need to be done. She has received several compliments from our parents on how well she handles and instructs their children. She has a positive attitude and is a pleasure to work with. She is very caring and thoughtful. I would highly recommend her for caring for people. Fawn
