@jordanbici
Special education teacher and educational leader focused on inclusive, student-centered learning.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated special education teacher and aspiring educational leader with six years of classroom experience across primary and secondary settings. I hold a Sixth-Year Degree in Advanced Educational Leadership and an MPS in Special Education, and I have a strong record of supporting diverse learners through teaching, tutoring, and mentoring.
My hands-on experience includes long-term substitute and permanent roles in K–12 special education, student teaching, and program leadership such as Lead Teacher of the Rise Program and Head Camp Counselor. I design and follow IEPs, conduct special education evaluations and PPT meetings, and develop youth-centered programs that blend leadership and creativity.
I seek to contribute to inclusive school communities where I can apply my leadership training, special education expertise, and commitment to student advocacy to improve outcomes and foster meaningful growth for students and staff.
