 * About Me: **

My name is Alyssa Thompson. I attended East Stroudsburg University where I received my bachelors in special education. Since graduating from ESU I have been teaching in an autistic support classroom at Lehman intermediate school in East Stroudsburg. I am also working on my masters degree in instructional technology. I hope to continue teaching once I finish my masters and help incorporate more technology into the special education classroom.


 * Teaching Philosophy: **

My philosophy of teaching is different from many teachers. With my background in Special Education, I believe that teaching should be done in the natural environment, whether that be a classroom or out in the community; that the education is on the ability level of the child, and contrary to most, not on age. I also believe that a child should be included within the regular education program as much as that child is able to handle without behaviors interfering with the learning process.
