Life Changing
“I, Elcedia Awe, have never encountered such an impactful work shop, it’s life changing. Holistically for the first time, I have been blown away in awe. This course has made my career and my life easier and less stressful. It has given me answers to the unanswered for many years. I feel equipped with the wisdom, tools, understanding and matching the correct terminologies of situations that I face daily, especially in the classroom. I have gained extreme confidence to help my entire community and outside of it. I am so encouraged to keep educating myself in this area. I can now be that teacher who empathize, defend, protect and fight to see our country equip our Belizean people to satisfy their needs. I will stand and fight with programs like Autism Belize to make a difference. It is worth it.
Grateful
“At first, I didn’t know how to deal with my autistic student, and it was honestly a challenge. But this course taught me so much about children with disabilities, and I went back to my classroom and applied the different methods I’ve learned. Now, nobody is sweeter than my autistic student. I’ve come to realize that children with disabilities require a lot of patience and work, but what they truly need is someone or a group of people who will never give up on them. Disability doesn’t come with a manual; it comes with a mom, dad, family, friends, teachers, and a community willing to stand by them every step of the way. I’m so grateful for the lessons I’ve learned and the chance to make a difference in their lives.”
