I am a Sped Teacher working for Hawaii DOE. I work in a self-contained classroom devoted to students that need extra attention due to behavioral or cognitive concerns. I am to make academics relevant to students who have shown little or no interest in academics.
As a Special Education Teacher I am specifically employed to work with children or young adults who need extra support or require an advanced programme of education in order to compete their learning successfully.
I work with individuals who are physically disabled, sensory impaired (for example deaf or blind), have speech and language difficulties such as dyslexia, have mental disabilities such as autism, are emotionally vulnerable, have behavior difficulties or a combination of these disabilities. I also work with gifted and talented individuals.
A key aspect of my work is identifying individual needs and being responsible for creating a safe, stimulating, and supportive learning environment.
