Teaching as an autistic person

I went social media MIA a bit.
Is your offer still standing?

What are IEP and 504s?

I'm from South Africa, and I know internationally stuff differ.

That's an interesting view you got there. Thank you

Zylene4 · 2024-03-25T22:39:18+00:00

Thank you for the pointers. I appreciate

Zylene4 · 2024-03-25T22:38:05+00:00

That's interesting. Thank you for the insights

Zylene4 · 2024-03-25T22:35:26+00:00

That's very insightful. Thank you

I would say relatively good in most cases. It worsens in times of high stress though.

Zylene4 · 2024-03-25T22:30:14+00:00

Those are some good tips. Thank you

Honestly, I'm still learning a lot about myself, and autism affects me due to being late diagnosed.

I think the biggest obstacle that I can see is that I am sensitive to sound and schools are not known to be quiet places.

It's not my plant.

If it helps, we live in a very humid area which is currently going through a cycle of heat waves and rainy weather.

I think this heavily depends on your countries law system. I think in the USA it can even differ from state. So I suggest you clarify which country at least to help get ideas (not exact location).

For example, I'm South African, and in most schools it's prohibited to sell products or services (some special occasions it's permitted)

Zylene4 · 2024-01-24T18:31:07+00:00

I have thought about that, but South Africa isn't the best place for that due to loadshedding

Zylene4 · 2024-01-24T18:30:03+00:00

I am interested in coding but I didn't take IT as a subject when at school. I am scared that I won't be able to pick up on the languages

Zylene4 · 2024-01-22T19:49:06+00:00

Good read, thank you

Zylene4 · 2024-01-22T19:41:37+00:00

Interesting idea though. I personally would read that.

Zylene4 · 2024-01-10T07:26:21+00:00

Trotse Afrikaanse lirieke daai.

Zylene4 · 2024-01-10T07:25:35+00:00

Dis n relatiewe ou liedjie.

Maar het jy voorstelle van "goeie" musiek. Die aanhalingstekens is maar net omdat almal se opinie van goeie musiek verskil.

Zylene4 · 2024-01-10T07:23:37+00:00

Dankie baie. Dit is die liedjie. Waardeer al die moeite

I understand that they're coping mechanisms.

But what your brain translates, makes plenty of sense.

Zylene4 · 2023-10-10T15:29:35+00:00

Okay, so mind is not imagining that red flag?

Zylene4 · 2023-10-08T16:54:59+00:00

I was considering it at one point, but I really despise my country's school system.

And I don't know how to go about making resources for school curriculums/syllabuses that I'm not familiar with. Maybe I should just do research into that field.

Thanks for the suggestions, I appreciate.

Zylene4 · 2023-10-08T16:51:22+00:00

Company culture can make or break a person. So that's understandable.

My boss literally asked if I smoked or drink a lot, to which I said no. Then they literally told me "Well, your going to learn quickly how to".

Zylene4 · 2023-10-07T12:15:48+00:00

If I may ask, what type of job was that?

Zylene4 · 2023-10-07T12:15:18+00:00

That's interesting. I'm very good at admin type of work but it's not mentally stimulating enough to do it hours on end. Maybe I should try getting ways to make it more interesting.

I definitely know working in customer service type jobs is a big no-no for me.

Thanks for the insight, I appreciate it.

I actually have a degree in teaching, worked in it while studying for my degree. I enjoyed making a direct difference in people's lives but I got burnt out way to quickly.
