This is a must listen to!! I am unbelievable blessed to have listened to Mrs. Hook's  adventures when finding out her daughter had Autism. It's relatable to some, and learning for others. This episode, I interviewed one of my favorite paraprofessionals, Mrs. Hook, I had worked with her in my teaching career. She is a rockstar! We were a great team. We always advocated for students and kept things fun. Mrs. Hook has three children, one with high functioning Autism, and worked as a paraprofessional, who now is a substitute teacher for her daughters’ school. She is a phenomenal human being!Mrs. Hook’s story of when she found out her daughter had Autism is outstanding. She took on a big obstacle head on. Also ,her version of how her daughter felt when she knew she had Autism is impeccable. Her daughter is bright, smart, and a go-getter. She won’t let anything get in her way, not even a label. After all those long days, Mrs. Hook is so blessed to continue to keep learning from her daughter.Side note: Apraxia is a neurological disorder that can be characterized by the inability to perform learned movements on command. Keep a lookout for more stories to come!
