As a dedicated special education teacher with a Master's degree and over 10 years of classroom experience, I specialize in creating personalized learning experiences that help students overcome challenges and reach their full potential. My approach combines data-driven assessment, differentiated instruction, and positive reinforcement to build both academic skills and student confidence. I have extensive experience developing and implementing IEPs, providing reading interventions, and teaching across multiple elementary subjects. Having worked with students from grades 1-10 in both traditional and alternative education settings, I understand that every learner is unique and requires individualized strategies for success. I'm passionate about helping students who struggle with traditional learning methods discover their strengths and develop effective study strategies, while maintaining clear communication with families to ensure consistent progress toward educational goals.
