Twice Exceptional

If your child is twice exceptional, you understand that it can be a challenge to find services that fit their needs. “Twice exceptional” means that a child is academically gifted, with the potential for high achievement, and also has one or more disabilities. Often the content isn’t challenging enough, or the facilitators don’t understand the unique needs of a gifted child on the Autism spectrum, and/or with a learning disability or behavioral challenge. I really enjoy finding ways to better serve students that are both intellectual, and need accommodations/modifications to access materials. I treat every child with respect, and hold them to a high standard of achievement based on their individual needs. Whether your family’s goal is to enrich your child’s academic skills, or support their social emotional development (or both!), Little Plum can meet your child’s unique needs.
