A Special Education Teacher is an educator who works with students who have a variety of learning disabilities or special needs. They create tailored lesson plans and teaching strategies to help these students succeed academically and socially. Their goal is to provide a supportive learning environment that accommodates each student's unique challenges. In addition to teaching, Special Education Teachers often collaborate with other professionals, such as speech therapists and school psychologists, to develop individualized education programs (IEPs). They also communicate with parents to ensure that students receive the necessary support both at school and at home.
