Jennifer Matticola says
April 4, 2013 at 4:56 PMI am a school teacher. I have taught three different children with Autism in the past three years. All of the kids were completely different and had different levels of autism. Since I was there first teacher in school (kindergarten) I really got to make a HUGE impact on their lives and schooling. I have watched each one of them grow and learn new things. I am so amazed everyday at how well each child is doing in school and it makes my heart so happy to know I made a difference in their lives. From the first day of school to the last they grew so much. They are amazing kids and yes they do require a little extra help but the reward when they try a new food or make friends just melts my heart.
Stephanie L. says
