Meet Ellen
- Comfortable with pets
I have actually been a personal care attendant in adult foster care for over four years. As well as an aspiring chef. My current position has left me with some free time. I would love to use the skills I've acquired from taking care special needs adults(who had often times reached their full potential or were regressing) and apply it to youngsters who are curious and excited to grow and learn. I would be happy to be as involved or as hands off when it comes to guidance as you see fit. I would be comfortable tutoring any subject up to Jr.high level. As well as equally excited to help your special needs child reach their full potential.
