I am currently attending the University of Rhode Island studying special education. I have had the awesome opportunity to work one on one with Special needs students in classroom settings teaching them carries skills and knowledge as well as promoting integration of these students into regular classes. In addition I have worked with early aged adults with special needs in a program called next step where I worked with these individuals at different job sites to help them learn and develop both life and work skills. Also, as an education major at school I have had the opportunity to teach preschool aged children in a diverse area where I got to work with all different types of learners. I am currently taking classes on campus, my schedule will be a little different each day but I am flexible and willing to work things out!
I do not like writing reviews like this but I have to considering what type of work this is. Amanda and I had a great initial phone conversation. I asked her if she wanted the job and she accepted. Then I told her I would call her so we could meet and discuss the preliminary stuff before her first day. Well, I called and called several times. I texted her multiple times and even sent her an e-mail from this sight. Basically Amanda ghosted me or blew me off without any response to my attempts at communication. My frustration is that I past over 2 other candidates and selected Amanda. When I tried to contact the other candidates they were no longer available. I would be very careful when selecting Amanda she is not reliable.
