I graduated from the University of Akron, where I got my bachelor's and master's in speech-language pathology and audiology. I have an additional certification in Augmentative and Alternative Communication; I specialize in giving a voice to everyone.

I have worked in the schools for 2 years now as a speech-language pathologist, where I gained many skills: intercollaborative teamwork, thorough lesson plans, excellent verbal communication, and parent education. It's important to view each child through a holistic lense, encompassing all of their strengths and needs.

I have taught K-12 students, ranging from articulation therapy, functional communication skills, AAC device caregiver training, language, and social skills, 1:1 and in small groups. I have cured students of inaccurate articulatory productions through multisensory cues, positive reinforcement, modeling, etc. I have enjoyed working with students and figured I'd help out more through Wyzant!

Approved Subjects

Grammar

Grammar

I have provided treatment for many students with language impairments. I have taught various grammar skills including: homophones, subordinating and coordinating conjunctions, subject-verb agreement, etc. I also conduct language evaluations, using standardized tests, and analyze them when determining which specific skills to target in language therapy.
Special Needs

Special Needs

As an SLP, I constantly work with students who require specialized education, ranging from numerous disabilities, including but not limited to: autism, down syndrome, fragile X syndrome, OBD, etc. Being a speech therapist in special education requires a high degree of patience, care, parent support, and compassion, which are all traits I have acquired from working with those who have special needs.
Vocabulary

Vocabulary

As a speech-language pathologist, I have taught various tier 1 and tier 2 vocabulary strategies to students. These include: context clues, graphic organizers, word-picture association, semantic mapping, dual coding, etc. I have provided vocabulary instruction for a variety of ages ranging from 5 to 18.
