Life Lessons

I have many different reasons why I choose Special Education as the field I would like to work in. I have family members that have different disabilities and I also have a learning disability as well. I feel fortunate that I am the first one is my family to have a disability because I have always been able to show my younger cousins, niece and nephew who have different disabilities that just because you have a disability does not mean you are a disabled person. Some people when they find out a person has a disability labels them disabled which is unfair. People should remember that a disability is only one aspect of that person. I personally feel that my learning disability is a blessing is disguise because I have learned so much about my self as well as many important life lessons. I embrace people's differences instead of judging a person for their differences. I have great empathy towards people.
These are some of the reasons why I want to work with people who have special needs. It is important for them to see that yes they may have limitations but what they can do with their life is limitless. I want to make a difference in their life.

specialized horseback riding lessons

After doing my product description which was about specialized horseback riding lessons, I found that I would love to do this. As a teacher I would inform parents about this program and encourage students to try this. I think for students who have any kind of disability it is important for them to try new things. By having programs like this one in particular, it helps people who have disabilities to improve their skills but their self esteem more importantly.
