Debrief Discussion
Tailored lessons are just like normal ones, with the only difference being that more attention is given to students with possible learning and physical disabilities. The locations are also wheelchair-friendly, with close parking.
Please let me know if you need a particular lesson plan or have any physical limitations regarding where we can meet. Zoom, face-to-face, or a combination of both are possible options. I can tailor a lesson to suit your individual needs.
