Philosophy of Special Education

My philosophy on the education of exceptional students is to provide each individual student instruction in a variety of areas that affect their academic success.Exceptional Education is not just for students with severe disabilities. A continuum of services from light intervention in the general classroom to intensive, separate classroom instruction should be provided according to each student's needs. Students with speech or language impairments, physical disabilities, or emotional needs can receive therapy in a variety of ways if they affect his/her successful performance in the classroom. I value each students involvement inside the classroom because this will allow me to see where the help is needed the most.
