• United States
• Primary and Secondary Education
• 1 - 100 Employee

• Special Education Paraeducator

  • Oct 2020 - Present

  I work with young children with a wide variety of special needs and abilities. I support students in both Special Education and general education environments, and work closely with teachers to meet IEP goals and track academic, behavior, and functional data. I have collaborated with case workers and the district BCBA to determine functions of behavior and implement intervention strategies across multiple environments. This direct role also allows me to consistently use alternative methods of communication, such as AACs and ASL with a young population to meet academic and behavior goals. My position requires a great deal of flexibility and adaptability, as I will fill any role that is required of me. Show less
