Tips from an autism school founder
Have you struggled with your child's education since the pandemic started - or you just don't live near a school or ECD that caters for children with autism? This course is for you! It will discuss all the things you need to take into account when setting up your home school and why you shouldn't fall into the "one size fits all" approach when it comes to your child's education.
Ilse Kilian-Ross went from an autism home school mom to opening an autism school in 2014 in Johannesburg, South Africa. In this course she shares advice on setting up the best home school environment as well as:
Assessing your child by a professional or by yourself
Physical age of a child vs Academic/Development age of a child
Core areas of development which determine your child's academic/development age
Why you should research and read to become an expert on autism
Teaching at development age - not physical age
Learning stages - mastering new skills - how it works
Children with autism learn differently - but you still need to teach them everything
Procuring a curriculum for your child based on their individual educational needs
Why you should be joining autism support groups
Your child's physical learning environment
Setting goals and a learning schedule for your child
Remember, every child with autism has their own unique needs – and even your home school should reflect this.
In this course Ilse will help you set up a space conducive to learning for children with autism based on her experience as founder of an autism school in Johannesburg, South Africa.
