About Mckenzie

I am a speech language pathologist at Peck Elementary school. I have a M. A. in Speech Language Pathology from UNCG and a B. A. in Linguistics and Communication from UNC Chapel Hill. I am seeking part-time work as a tutor/SLP a couple afternoons a week. I have 3 years experience as a habilitation technician for children and teens with a variety of needs. I have experience working with individuals with autism, down-syndrome, and various developmental disabilities, along with typically developing children. My degrees have provided me experience in guided reading and language tutoring, and gives me the teaching skills to break down information in such a way to guide children through grade school subjects easily, as well as the communication skills to be kind and patient in the process. I also have training in behavior management, ABA training, and am CPR certified. Please see my childcare and special needs profiles for references to my responsibility and reliability.
