Today, Wesley talks to his very special guest, Michael Rotando (Mr. Mike) from Montreal, Quebec, Canada. He is a professional who spends his days working as special education teacher for children with autism. His poetry collection called, ‘Turn off the Lights,’ is available on amazon. See the link below.
Here are some of the topics Wesley and Mr. Mike covered:
- Did you choose to be in special education or did it pick you?
- How does your special education system work in Canada vs USA?
- How did you or are you meeting your students’ needs digitally during the lockdowns?
- How do you encourage your students to achieve their goals despite their learning disabilities?
- What is your book “Turn Off The Lights” about and what made you want to write it?
- Are you going to move forward with starting your own podcast?
But first, Wesley explains his four tips that worked well for him in working with special education students and discusses an article that addresses how to improve special education: https://charterschoolcenter.ed.gov/sites/default/files/files/field_publication_attachment/cst-assessing-improving-special-education.pdf
