Fun Facts
One passion people quickly learn about me is that I love to talk! I am a school speech language pathologist so talking is a part of the job! I also love to work out, travel and spend time with my family and friends.
About Me
I am currently a school speech language pathologist for the public schools. I have been working for the public schools as a speech - language pathologist for about 11 years.
Experience
I have extensive experience working with children who have speech and language impairments/ communication delays. I have worked with children who have Autism, Developmental Delays, Learning Disabilities and have experience with children in preschool through high school. I have a strong background with English/ Language Arts, Reading/Language Comprehension, Writing and working with children who struggle with phonics and sound development.
Approach
I love working with children and do my best to make learning fun. I provide positive reinforcement to children and find that a reward system can be beneficial to children who struggle with following directions and behavior difficulty. I find that persistence and determination can help anyone overcome any learning struggles they may have. I also think breaking down the lessons/ assignments will help children attend to task and grasp the concept.
