This is my 30th year as a special education teacher. I have taught the blind and visually impaired children for 6 years and still do contractual work as a certified orientation and mobility specialist. For the past 25 years I have been teaching children who are severely emotionally disturbed at the middle school level. I can honestly say that during my time teaching this population there have been very few children I have not had success with. The most important trait I bring to helping your child is what research has repeatedly said is the single best indicator for student's success: "having a MEANINGFUL relationship between the student and teacher." I am certified to work with blind and visually impaired children, as well as students with Learning Disabilities and Behavioral Disorders. I look forward to working with your child and help them reach their fullest potential. I have recently written a 150 page mannual for "teachers working with emotionally disturbed children." If you have a child who needs to improve their behavior in the classroom or at home I feel I bring a wealth of knowledge to this prevalent problem in today's classroom. I look forward to hearing from you.
