Bio About

I am a dedicated educator with extensive experience working with students who have a variety of learning and physical disabilities, including visual impairment, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), cerebral palsy, Dyslexia, Dysgraphia, Dyscalculia, Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD), and Global Developmental Delay.

I take pride in my proactive approach, which includes learning and implementing Braille for students with visual impairments. This adaptability reflects my commitment to continuously enhancing my skills to better support my students. My dedication to inclusive education is central to my teaching philosophy: "Every person has the potential to learn as long as the teaching is geared in the right manner." I strive to tailor my methods to meet each student's unique needs, which has greatly contributed to their academic progress and personal development. I am fortunate to be highly respected and well-liked by both students and colleagues. Known for my motivation, punctuality, and consistent availability, I am always ready to offer support and encouragement. I prioritize my students' best interests and work hard to build constructive, supportive relationships with their parents, providing valuable assistance and guidance.In 2023, I was honored with a nomination for the Outstanding SPED Teacher Award (OSTA), which I see as a testament to my dedication and excellence in the field of special education.
