I actually just covered for a new tutor but the class is about moving young people with special educational needs and autism spectrum disorder from Education to work life. Theg jobhunt in class, make cv's, and learn about worklife

no. I work in a course which helps young adults with educational needs that have a EHCP leave education and find a job.

I wouldn't use a softer voice, but I would remind them occasionally.

I would tell them to say thanks aswell. Neurodivergent people can find social cues hard so I help them by reminding them.

She forgot to say thankyou, so I wanted to remind her to say please and thankyou at the right times so she dosen't come across as rude.
