About Joel
Experience: 8 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I have experience with special needs kids (deaf, autistic, paraplegic, blind, cognitive impairment, emotional/behavioral impairment). I have been working with children of all ages as a substitute teacher for over half a decade, borrowing my methods from fellow educators, the Montessori method, and from The Supernanny. I have learned to be strict when necessary but at the end of the day if the kid is having fun, so am I. My educational and performance background allows me to infuse music, Greek mythology, and American Sign Language into creative play time.

Joel was our life saver. Our kids have PTSD and our son was diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder and ADHD, which is certainly difficult to manage on a daily basis, but hen Virtual School hit us. Joel, with his background in special needs kids, not only kept our son under control, but was instrumental in keeping him on track academically. Joel was very creative in advancing and enriching our son's experiences in many diverse areas. He would certainly not be at his academic and behavioral level without Joel. His mentor-ship for our son was far exceeding our expectations. We would hire him again in a blink, but understand Joel's wish to continue his steep career trajectory. We wish him all the best and sincerely hope to stay in touch. We would be happy to provide more details if requested. The H Family
