A Lifestyle on the Path to Success
As a teacher in the public schools, I found that the system neglects diversity in the way students learn, motivate, self-regulate, and communicate.
In 2010, I started to work in the world of Cognitive Behavioral Health, ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis) and play therapy. I learned instructional strategies and developed my own strategies on how to discretely measure the success of my students. I was given the tools I needed to provide rapid skill acquisition based on learning styles, strengths, and needs of each of my students.
In 2012, I started using those same instructional strategies designed for learners with cognitive needs, like Autism, ADHD, and language delays, with students who were considered to be typically developing. This was my first learning pod experience. Within months, I had improved the learning of these students by nearly a full grade-level.
By tailoring instruction coupled with evidence based learning practices, I found that using creative, engaging, and real-world learning helped to increase intrinsic motivation and concrete conceptualization. I was able to reach and help students who did not love to learn to find their superpowers, build confidence and change their trajectory towards success.
