I can't really say. Special education is tailored to individual students' needs. Is there a level that you think would interest you the most?
I'd say there's a need in every division! Just remember to be flexible, because every kid will be different. It's important to remember that every kid will have different needs.
I've been looking into becoming a special education teacher. I'm doing research on what I need to get started. Good for you! Those students need a much different approach to learning. What types of disabilities do students have who receive care from a special education teacher? You'd probably be working with a lot of kids who have certain behavioral disorders, like ADHD or ADD, and maybe even some developmental disabilities, like autism. It sounds like a rewarding career! Is there a specific degree I would need to become a special education teacher? I'm not actually sure, but the teaching involves specialized teaching procedures and equipment and settings that are adapted to the situation. I would imagine with the rates of autism ever increasing, special education teachers are in demand. Do you think that's true? What else should I know about the profession? I have no idea how in demand special education teachers are. I can tell you that in addition to autism, you could be working with kids with physical disabilities and certain learning disabilities, like dyslexia. I can't wait to get started helping kids! Do you think there's more of a need in elementary schools, middle or high schools?
Special education (also known as special needs education, aided education, exceptional education or Special Ed) is the practice of educating students with special educational needs in a way that addresses their individual differences and needs.
