I am currently certified in New York State to teach General Education and Students with Disabilities for students from birth through 9th grade. I have worked in a school district for the past 8 years with students with Autism, Intellectual Disabilities, ADD/ADHD and Learning Disabilities. I am familiar with the Barbara Wilson program which helps students with Autism learn the alphabet sounds. I also use a modified version of the ABA program which allows the students to practice their skills throughout their school day. The students I have worked with are in an inclusion setting in elementary school. They are able to participate in most lessons with support and prompting. However, each student I have worked with had their own IEP goals that also had to be met throughout the school year. We worked on academics as well as social skills training and kept records of their progress towards their IEP goals.
