I completed 2 years of EEC courses, was top of my class and received an award for my practical on field skill. I thrive in child development Read more and education. During my work within early education classrooms, I developed a concentration in special needs. Having a compassionate, patience, positive and creative mind set, I found that I had an innate ability and understanding for all children.
