I was a classroom teacher for children with special needs for many years. Most of my experience has been with children with multiple disabilities/medically complex. The children are challenging to work with. When they learn a concept they have been working on for a long time and you see their happiness and pride, it is quite rewarding for the child/children and me. I work toward having the child reach his/her potential. I taught mainly older children. I have an MA in Early Childhood Special Education and would like to work with a young child on a full-time basis.
