The Impact of a Special Education Teacher
When a former student approaches you after 25 years, thanking you for lessons long past, it hits in a way that words can't quite capture. That's the essence of the latest Sped Prep Academy podcast episode—stories that demonstrate the unforeseen and lasting impacts we special educators have on our students.
The focus of this episode are 3 heartwarming anecdotes from my personal journey in special education, each one underscoring the powerful connections and transformative influence we can have on the lives we touch. These stories brought my role as an educator full circle:
But these stories are not just mine. They belong to all special educators, serving as a collective celebration of the quiet yet profound victories we achieve on a daily basis.
So, from one special education teacher to another, I urge you to remember the power of your role. Even on the toughest days, when the paperwork piles up, when the challenges seem insurmountable, know that you are making a difference. It might not be evident today, tomorrow, or even this year. But one day, like in my stories, you'll see the fruits of your labor, and you'll realize just how significant your impact has been.
