A whole new world

Having a student with autism in your classroom can be intimidating. No two people with autism are alike. Training is minimal, support is stretched to the limits and yet the expectations of parents and administration are high.

Often the teaching strategies that work for so many students are just not effective for students who have autism. 

You need the guidance of someone who 'gets it.' 

I want to help you to feel competent and confident in your role. Most of all I want you to be able to know the rich gifts that students with autism have to give you. I promise that the rewards will be far greater than you can imagine.
