School Placement Consultation
I help families identify school settings that best support their child’s learning profile and their family’s educational goals. Recommendations may include specialized public school programs, local private schools, therapeutic day schools, or independent learning environments. School placement consultation with me is a holistic process that includes a complete record review, honest conversations with the family and student, collaboration with the current school when desired, and input from other providers including therapists, counselors, and doctors. This service may include:
- Recommended school placement list with personalized rationale, including a transparent summary of each school’s pros and cons.
- Written summary of the student’s learning profile and desired outcomes
- Guidance through the school application process and/or supported transition to a new learning environment
Special Education Advocacy and IEP Support
I support families in navigating the special education process from referrals through annual reviews and re-evaluations. I review and interpret evaluations with an expert lens, help families prepare for IEP or 504 meetings, advocate for services that meet the child’s unique needs, and help school teams find the routes to child-centered solutions within their existing structures. My expertise, as both a teacher and a special education parent, provides a unique lens for student profiles, vision statements, and proposed goals. This service may include:
- Detailed summaries of student needs, recommended services, and proposed goals
- IEP meeting preparation and planning
- Optional attendance at school meetings
- Assistance drafting written communications with school-based teams
Academic Screening and Assessment
I have the experience, qualifications, and training necessary to administer standardized assessments commonly used to evaluate a student’s current academic functioning. Because it is common for students to be over-evaluated, this service often includes the initial use of common screeners to determine if further evaluation is warranted. Full academic testing provides families with a complete picture of a student’s strengths and areas in need of support. This service includes:
- Intake meeting to determine the most appropriate plan for screening and assessment
- Assessment report with score summary and interpretations
- Recommendations for support student needs or additional evaluation
- Parent meeting to ensure deep understanding of assessment results and next steps
Specialized Content Development for EdTech and Education Brands
I create and edit high-quality educational content, curriculum, and parent education solutions tailored to diverse learning needs, including special education audiences. I collaborate with teams to develop interactive resources, market-driven web content, evidence-based assessments, and more. This service may include:
- Website content and copy specialized for an audience of expert educators
- Differentiated curriculum aligned with educational standards
- Accessible curriculum for all learners paired with parent education and support materials
- Project management and editorial feedback as needed
