    Hello,

    I was wondering if anyone has looked into anger management classes or therapy for a student with autism. A teenager that I work with is having difficulties with his temper and the family and I are trying to find different ways to address it.

    Please send e-mail to patti@myjansen.com to reply to this post. Thanks.

    WANTED: MATH AND CHEMISTRY TUTOR FOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT WITH ASPERGER'S SYNDROME

    We are looking for a mature, self-motivated individual to help a Grade 11 student with his math and chemistry school work. He is a bright and funny young man who likes video games, manga and sports, and is easy to work with.

    The student takes regular classes like his peers, but needs extra support in understanding and applying the materials since he learns differently. He memorizes information quickly, but needs extra support in understanding the material in order to apply it. He needs concepts broken down into smaller steps and segments for him, and support in practicing them. He also needs his tutor to help support him in the learning and practicing effective study habits and organizational skills other support team members put in place.

    We have two amazing consultants who work with him: Shelley Davis, M.A., J.D. from the United States and Alaknanda Majumdar, M.A., B.Ed., M. Ed. who is our local consultant.

    We are looking for someone who is reliable, able to think on their feet, and willing to stick with a minimum 1 year commitment. You should be comfortable teaching high school level math and science (especially chemistry) and be prepared to teach study skills, social skills and life skills as well. Prior experience working with students with autism is an asset but not required. Paid training will be provided.
    The tutor should be available to commit to 2 regular sessions per week, 2-3 hours each session. Paid Team meetings are held on the first Monday evening of each month, and meetings with Shelley Davis are held every 3 months on a Saturday afternoon. You must be able to attend all meetings.

    For more information, or to apply for the position, please send an e-mail to janken9294@hotmail.com. Please include your resume, a cover letter and 2
    references.
