My teaching career includes more than twenty years of experience as a self-contained special education teacher, resource room teacher, and educational diagnostician. My classroom background, in New York City and my native Puerto Rico, includes ten years teaching emotionally disturbed behaviorally disordered students and four years teaching children with a learning disability or low cognitive functioning. I have a bachelor's degree in psychology (University of Puerto Rico) and a master's degree in special education with a specialization in emotional disturbances (Long Island University, Brooklyn NY). I also have extensive graduate training in psychology ( credits). Currently, I'm a full-time writer, focusing on alternative teaching procedures for low-achieving students and child guidance approaches for habitually disruptive students.
