Really thank ｕ share your experience in this field! 🎉❤I love this job from your expressing！ I am majoring Primary Education (4-12) in UK. Next year, I’ll apply a second degree about school psychology ! I don’t want to offend you, I just want to get some suggestions about your Program. Which university ‘s program you trained? How about your study experience? If this offend you, I apologize for this. Because I have no idea, this field too few people enter, so it’s really hard for me to get optional information except to skip the program website.😊 Andddddd Happy new year! Hope you everything goes well !🎉🎉

I have a very good friend with sometimes debilitating anxiety. This can mean being unable to move or interact and a lot of hand flicking. However, they have been teaching for years and have never had such an issue in the environment. It is controlled and emphasizes their delight in conversation and teaching while making it less likely to experience unexpected over stimulation. I think it has made them a thoughtful person that carries that to their classrooms, such a mindfulness for others who may have their own considerations. They are also the strongest person I know, not in a condescending way but in a legitimate "I would never want to compete with you in some metric on our successes" kind of way. Thank you for sharing the TEDx Talk. The example of a right handed vs left handed drive through was a great illustration and emphasizes the importance of accessibility.

@@Amandaschoolpsych Thanks for the reply Amanda. I am in the field and that is fascinating! Give yourself a pat on the back for being able to do such assessments in that fashion. That sounds tricky to me but during impacts of Covid -19 and distance learning we did some similar things. For initial assessments though we sometimes needed to gather some information in person and so some delays were necessary on those until parents were able to bring students in often masked to do one to one in person assessment.

@@etamommy yes definitely! I would said there are many arguments to be made and I also was confused when I first started but now I see how effective it CAN be when done right and with fidelity.

Hi! I deciding on on being a school social worker, I'm a caseworker right now at n outreach and tracking program and work at a group home once a week as well. What would you say is the main difference between the school social worker and school psychologist? (I plan on working with younger grades)
@Amandaschoolpsych 4 ай бұрын
Hey! So sorry I just am seeing this! It very much will depend on the state you practice in. In a lot of states social workers take on more of the counseling and crisis aspects, and then they also often are the experts on connecting families to resources in the community. Whereas a lot of states school psychologists work mostly in special education! So sometimes social workers will be the provider more for general education and school psychs more for special education students, evaluating for disabilities, and writing comprehensive psychoeducational evaluation reports. My preference is also to work in crisis and mental health’s support for general education along with special education. I’ll have to dive deeper into this in a video sometime but that’s my short generalized response (:
