BCBA available

[Guest guest]

Hello,

My name is Amy Sexton. I have a B.S. in Speech Pathology, a M.Ed.

and a BCBA. I have worked in many scool setting as well as teacher

in a communications classroom. For the last two years I have enjoyed

working one on one with children with autism privately.

I am now consulting but I am a teacher at heart. There is a slight

difference in the way I work. Most consultants come to meetings and

plan an write programs for other tutors to implement. I meet with

the children I see every week and have a full therapy session except

on meeting weeks. I prefere this schedule because I feel that I can

keep the child's program going at optimal speeds. One reason time

can be lost is because to much time can be spent relaying information

to someone who has not spent time with the child. Also, many times a

child may not respond to a new program exactly the way a consultant

plans and a therapist may not know how to make small changes to the

program. Again, time will be waisted in waiting to talk to the

consultant it may even take until the next meeting.

I feel that children's early years are precious when it comes to

learning language. I am extremely passionate and idealistic about my

chosen field and am always searching for the most effective way to

teach children.
