As a teacher for the past 10 years, I've worked with students from age 5-17. I worked three years with preschoolers which I really enjoyed. The remainder of the time I worked with K-12. Also, throughout my practice for past 25 years I saw students. I work closely with the parents and I work hard to improve communication between parent and child.
