I am a retired special ed teacher and will tutor your child as part of the daily routine. I taught Behavior Disorder Students at a special school. I am familiar with ADD and ADHD students and will work with plans the parents use at home. I have worked with multidisabled, and offered personal care, mobility, community outings. I understand mobility issues and will assist as needed. I have dealt with medical issues such as seizures and tube feeding. I am fun loving and very flexible. I enjoy going out and participating in the community events based on the child's needs. I have a fully insured car and a fold up wheel chair fits in the back. I would love to work with a family with a disabled student and create memories for the family allowing the parents the freedom to go about their daily routine and not worry about their special needs student.
