This letter expresses my sincere intent to be the next employee for Inclusive Education department. I am confident that my professional qualifications meet and exceed those demanded of this position. More importantly, I am a patient and a flexible team player, yet firm in my communications and decisions. These qualifications make me ideally suited to work in this multi-faceted environment.
After my vast experiences in different firms and fields, it was very clear that I had a special bond with kids that have emotional and behavioral issues. Working with them comes naturally to me and gives me a deep sense of personal satisfaction. As a disciplinarian, coach and tutor, I open up in this setting. Undeniably, watching students make improvements and sharing positive praise with parents are my most rewarding moments of teaching.
My experience as a Special Education coordinator is what will ensure my success as program manager. I have worked with a diverse range of emotional, physical and cultural backgrounds and often I am experienced in being school psychologist. I have worked with different disabilities including ADHD, ADD, ODD, ASD, Tourette’s syndrome, Cerebral Palsy, Specific Learning Difficulty (Dyslexia, Dyscalculia, Dysgraphia, and Dyspraxia), and Gifted & Talented etc.
More importantly, because of my history in the previous school, I connect well with parents. I am able to relate to all circumstances because I am rarely shocked. Rather than become emotional, I take a proactive problem solving approach. Through this strong relationship with parents, I recognize quickly the accuracy and efficacy of assessments.
I am readily aware of the procedures and guidelines set forth by IDEA, as well as other codes and regulations, and relevant testing and assessment models shaping the way we educate today. My belief is that when we, as educators and administrators, are competent and confident, everyone walks away happy.
I am a true lifelong learner. I love to learn, especially from kids. As such, I was especially excited to be recently having RBT training. This training will further enhance my ability to be a bridge between students of determination and the successful academic careers they deserve.
