Summary

I am a well-trained and certified special educational English teacher successful at providing classroom and emotional structure for special needs children to flourish in academic settings. I have over twenty years of experience teaching English to students in primary 2 through senior secondary level in both special educational and main stream schools. My experience in mentoring students and modernizing curriculum makes me an excellent candidate to coordinate well with classroom teachers with supportive strategies for behaviour management and lesson accommodations for students.
