Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

As a teacher with a master's degree in Special Ed., I use the knowledge from my education and over 20 years of experience supporting students with the Austism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). My primary responsibility is to develop an Individual Education Program (IEP) tailored around teaching and accommodating the needs of ESE and high functioning ASD children. I evaluate students’ skills and test their knowledge to organize lesson plans suitable for their abilities. Typically I work one-on-one or in small groups to ensure support for students who have been classified ESE or ASD. The student's learning and progress is assessed daily and monthly. I work closely with parents both in the traditional school setting and home school setting, Special Ed. support teams, school psychologists, Occupational therapist, Speech therapist and counselors to ensure IEP goals developed that will foster a clear path for the student to progress and monitor that the goals are met.

Great Teacher! We are all happy to have found her!

Ms. C is great at engaging my child, keeping her focused and coming up with lessons tailored to our needs. We have asked for help with note taking skills, writing narratives and basic writing skills. I’m so pleased with how connected she is with our kiddo and adaptable when our child is in need of some extra care. Highly recommend Candace she is a fresh friendly face for kiddo and very knowledgeable.

You're words warm my heart! I enjoy working with your son and seeing him focus on the lessons and progress in Math with every session! I'm glad he enjoys learning and his hard work pays off! Thank you so much!

So Kind & Patient

Ms. Riley was SUCH a joy! During our first session, my nephew was so uninterested. By the end, he was talking more and engaging with the work. I cannot wait to see him grow in math. I am confident that Ms. Riley will be a big help.

Tutor responded:

Your nephew is really engaged in each session! His confidence continues to rise with each as he builds upon his skills in reading and math. He loves the interactive games and is eager to show off his new skills during each session. Thank you so much!

So pleased!
