I have worked with children since the age of 19 years. 15+ years with students, presently, 9 years with mentally challenged and behavioral challenged students. My first one-on-one has "Prader Willi" disorder. I have learned to have lots of patience and compassion for her, working along with her parents, whom entrusted me with their daughter. Of all the disorders, this was one most challenging. Learning, as well understanding it helped. I am working as a one-one still within the classroom. I have worked as a youth counselor as well within a residential population.
