Mild Intervention Licensure
I grew in my knowledge about students with disabilities and in the knowledge of how to write an effective IEP. I became much more proficient in helping students with disabilities, which is really what being a special education teacher is about.

My Taylor program gave me more opportunities than I ever thought would be possible. My classes or interactions with Taylor professors impacted my growth not only as a special education coordinator but also impacted me as an individual.
