Since then he has worked with dozens of children of all ages, with diverse characteristics and needs, anywhere in the world. Although she would like that there was no need of the services that place, he loves his job and is excited about the opportunity that they give these beautiful children to be their friend, to teach them and learn from them in turn.
He believes that children with autism are very underrated. Each day has the opportunity to enjoy the intelligence, humor, and great emotion of these children. He thinks it's impossible to be a good teacher without first forming a bond with their students. He knows that, thanks to this perspective, his work has been greatly enriched.
His goal as a behavior analyst is to improve the lives of his students as much as possible, teaching them to communicate, to learn, interact and have fun with family, friends, and everyone they meet. The families of its students are the most valuable resources to learn and who better to help her children, and will work closely together to draw up a comprehensive curriculum. With a good team (family, her, and especially the student) believes that all children with autism can do very much. It would not be able to do so if there had firmly believed. As always repeats:
"I teach autistic children, and they teach me"
