Hello, everyone! My name is Tanya. I am originally from Ajax, ON but I am currently working abroad for SUF (Syracuse University Florence, Italy) as Field Studies Lecturer.

Hi everyone, my name is Domenica pronounced Doh-men-ih-cah. I graduated from the University of Guelph last December with a BA in Classics, Studio Art, and a minor in Italian and am currently in the process of applying to teachers college at UBC. I applied to this program because I had a lot of difficulty when I was in school and feel that having personal experience always helps you understand better so, I am going into education and would like to be able to help individuals with varying abilities. Eventually I would also like to complete a graduate certificate in Autism Spectrum Disorder but, one thing at a time! I currently sit on a board of directors for my local Community Living and am very interested in educational pathways and success. I have been working with individuals with both physical and intellectual disabilities since I was in high school and have a huge passion for their advocacy.

Fun facts: I love cooking and travelling, last winter I remodeled a work van and camped my way out west to Tofino and back!

Hello, my name is Shlomit. I have a journalism degree and an early childhood education diploma, and I also took some courses on autism, expressive arts therapy, and arts education. Throughout my varied work experience, I have most enjoyed being involved with a program or organization that’s supporting, inspiring, or empowering others in some way. Most recently, I supplied as an ECE in kindergarten classes at TDSB schools, and I also volunteered in a few special education classes. I'm interested in exploring how I could further support those with learning exceptionalities so they can reach their full potential.

My passion for the arts began when I was a young child, and I’ve created songs, poems, short stories, and visual art pieces. I’m working on making some of my arts pieces available in combination with various products through an online marketplace.

Hello, my name is Sydnye! Since I was sixteen I was working with individuals with exceptionalities, it has always been a passion of mine. My educational background started in pre-health science at George Brown, I then went to school to be an Early Childhood Educator at Sheridan. After working in the field I found a passion to learn more about ABA, which brought me to Humber for my Honours Bachelor of Behavioural Science, graduating in 2021. People think I'm crazy for jumping back into school after doing seven years of it, but I'm here again!
I love watching crime documentaries, I think I've watched every single one off of every streaming service, but I can't get into crime podcasts for some reason.

Good Evening my all classmates I'm Kanwal, a mother of three working as a technical support consultant at Rogers communication, Living in Ajax, Ontario. I hold a Master's Degree in psychology with a diploma in child educational psychology and counseling from my hometown. I also hold the Office Administration Executive Diploma from Seneca College with Honors

I worked as a school teacher and academic coordinator too. I want to pursue my career in the school field again because I know how difficult is this to handle and manage kids with learning difficulties. So I want to get some sound knowledge in this field to serve again with a better understanding of certain skills and software.
I love to spend quality time with my kids, do their chores, and understand their needs. My great desire is to go Skydiving.
