I have worked in an inclusive classroom as a teaching assistant for 6 years providing for children with special needs. I have cared for children that are mildly to severely disabled as well as children who have autism. I am currently in school hoping to earn my degree and certification so that I can work as a special education teacher for my career because I am that passionate and enthusiastic towards all children, regardless of need.
