Bachelor of Science in Special Education
Towson University
Towson, MD
I completed my leveling courses at the University of Eastern New Mexico. Here, I was able to apply my knowledge and skills in the online world and become one step closer to applying to graduate school for SLP. I completed all of the required leveling courses in order to continue to persue my goal of entering Speech Language Pathology Graduate school.
During my undergraduate studies at Towson University, I obtained a bachelor's degree in Special Eduction. I delivered a virtual presentation known as EdTPA, a recording that took place between myself, my coordinating teacher, and an autistic student. This was a requirement in order to graduate. During my undergraduate studies, I have gained an abundance of knowledge on the Special Education world, as well as individuals who require extensive needs.
