My Project

I am an exceptional education teacher for 25-plus years. I teach the intensive support autism class. I absolutely love my students and see the magic within each individual student. There is still a stigma about nonverbal students....my students may not be able to communicate like everyone else does not mean my students are not smart. In fact, my students are brilliant!

With the right technology, the iPad, I am able to create a safe environment where my students can flourish, demonstrate their abilities and knowledge, and feel successful within themselves.
