I graduated from Hudson County Community College in New Jersey in Business Management with honors. It was then that I realized that I wanted to pursue my dream of continuing my education to teach others. Teaching has been my most rewarding career.

I have successfully taught children and adults diagnosed with Autism. I have taught in ESE Schools, and I have worked with students of varying functional levels. I have read and researched extensively on this subject while I was teaching students with Autism.
ADD/ADHD
I have a B.A. in Elementary Education and a M.A. in Human Development. I graduated with a perfect 4.0. I have many years of experience teaching Special Education, specifically, students with ADD/ADHD. I utilize various strategies to compensate for the student's inability to concentrate and follow directions. I focus on the student's strengths and interests. I gauge progress incrementally, so that the student feels successful, and he wants to set goals and achieve greater success.

Deborah has been great with my child and talking with me every week about his progress. I am very happy with her and the WyzAnt selection process.

We've only had a couple of lessons with Deborah thus far, but I have to say she has really helped point us in the right direction with our homeschool studies. We sought out her help with our 10 year old daughter. She has dyslexia and often has a hard time sitting still and concentrating. She struggles with reading and writing in particular. Deborah has been patient with her and has had success in keeping her engaged and focused. I look forward to continued sessions and a successful partnership that will help our daughter succeed in many areas of study. Many thanks to Deborah for getting back to us so promptly and setting up sessions within days of contacting her.
