I love teaching students of all ages and abilities. My first teaching experience was in high school, during which I taught children of all ages to swim. Then, beginning in 1999, I began working with people on the autism spectrum. I have taught children with various disabilities, primarily autism, in homes and in schools in the South and abroad. In 2005, I completed my MEd in Early Childhood Special Education with a focus on autism at Vanderbilt and became a certified special education teacher in Tennessee. Since then, I taught two weekend-long GRE courses at colleges and three college level courses. These courses, taught at Emory University, all had a heavy focus on writing and so I provided a lot of instruction on how to research, develop, and complete a college-level paper. I am currently writing my dissertation, which is on how culture influences autism, for Emory University. I have a fairly flexible schedule and am comfortable teaching a variety of subjects and skills. My special education training has prepared me to be flexible and well versed in multiple teaching methods. I also believe that humor can be used to make students comfortable and create a trusting teaching environment. Finally, I always aim to prepare students to proceed in their educational careers with more independence and so am a strong believer in teaching students how to learn, rather than how to simply memorize and repeat.
