I have two friends who enrolled their kids in a Special Ed school. It’s a good thing that there are more schools catering to special education and I more thankful that there are events like this one to help the teachers become better educators.
Hi Jayne,
Have you heard of the upcoming ADHD Conference this September? You can be a big help to our advocacy by spreading the word to your friends. Just check our updates at https://www.facebook.com/pages/SpecialEducationPhilippines/132563736786068?ref=hl.
How did it go? The list of speakers seem diverse and not really focused on a specific topic.
This is a great endeavor as the needs of students changes with time so its good to have teachers updated.
Just saw Chinkee Tan last weekend. He’s a great speaker so I guess this event was a huge success !
I will have to refer my mute cousin to Brokenmindset.org. SPED needs popularity cuz the program is too underrated by the government.
I think it’s a good seminar for the educators. Nice to know they offer seminars like this.
I am an Education student from St Paul University Manila major in Preschool minor in SPED; and a KIDS volunteer at Victory Greenhills. I’d like to invite Ms. Malu Tiongson-Ortiz someday to our school (Education Department) to give us a talk about SPED and Down’s Syndrome. Thank you
Hello Neselle,
Special Education Philippines have forwarded your message and request to her including your contact details. I guess we’ll just have to wait for her response.
