My Students

Do you know that a child with Autism learns differently, many times their receptive hearing comes across much louder than ours. Therefore when the class becomes disruptive they have a hard time remaining calm. The music and audio books help them learn and relax at the same time.

I am an education specialist who works with a variety of children with special needs.

Each child is different and unique in their own ways. I teach children with Autism,other health impaired, those who are mentally challenge,and those with speech and language difficulties.

My Project

These MP3 Players will allow the children to feel at ease knowing that the benefits of music are right around the corner. Those who are auditory learners will be successful learning through music and audio books. Music makes the life of a child's mind open up and expand. This technology should be in all schools but I can only hope that you help make it possible at ours.

I hope that I have come across as a teacher of students who deserve everything in life.

These children are empowered by the giving attitudes of others. We could not teach and they could not learn without the support from donors like you.
