Consulting With Special Needs Teachers
Preparing Special Need Students For The Adult World
Service Description
Michael uses his own personal experiences overcoming the challenges of being labelled disabled and having Cerebral Palsy. He welcomes the opportunity to work with you in supporting your special need(s) student's to learn, grow, and succeed while going through school and entering into the adult working world. He also wants to provide you with insightful perspectives on why entrepreneurialism and small business ventures maybe a more liberating and viable option for special needs student's who want to pursue a career and ways to achieve economic freedom. The goal of Michael's consulting service is designed and meant to support school, career, and employment counselors, teachers, educational assistants, and parents through the following two initiatives: 1) Liberating Special Needs Youth Using Entrepreneurism. * Take on a self-leadership role in creating and implementing a business venture that could lead to economic prosperity. * Break down barriers preventing career aspirations, by using entrepreneurism to change able-bodied person’s perspectives of a person with a disability, from non-productive to productive. * Use entrepreneurism as a vehicle, to create and access future career opportunities to work in the world. * Develop the Positive Rebel’s mindset, so the student can raise and build stronger self-esteem, self-worth, confidence, and belief in themselves. 2) Supporting Special Needs Students To Succeed. * Use personal first-hand successes and failures experiences, which allowed me to grow and achieve while going through public school. * Explain why being a proactive and effective thinker with vision is key to breaking beyond prohibiting academic challenges and social barriers. * Promote outside-the-box creativity, while encouraging the student to expand their comfort zone so they can explore the potential of endless possibilities. * Consult on different strategies to develop common-sense thinking, so students will and can have the foresight to eliminate unnecessary time-consuming challenges. * Take on the Positive Rebel’s frame of mind to play a major role in supporting a student with a disability to conquer own challenges, move beyond limiting obstacles created by life and rise above prohibiting barriers erected by society.
