I am an elementary education/special education minor. I have experience in my coursework in dealing with all types of learners. I have found it to me even more fulfilling to work with children with special needs. It may take longer for these students to understand or make milestones but when they attain their goals its a rewarding experience to know that you helped to make a difference. I'm very passionate about working with these children because I am a firm believer that every child can learn despite any disability they may have.
