My Project

The students I work with require additional assistance in the classroom due to their diverse learning styles. In order to make school less challenging for them, I provide them with various tools and materials.

Equipping my students with class headphones enables them to work effectively on their Chromebooks without interrupting the class.

Additionally, some of my students perform better when using colored pencils and pens, so I provide them with these materials to help them excel in the classroom. Offering snacks to hungry students can improve their school performance, as hunger can hinder learning.
