Special Needs Caregiver

I have worked a substitute teacher in special education classrooms in the public school systems in SC. While working, I have had the pleasure of working in a classroom of six boys with autism. I enjoyed working with them and I know that there are times where one has to redirect them in order to promote positive behavior.
