Appearing
I have the honor of presenting to the BRAZ-TESOL International Conference on the critical topic of "Learning Disabilities."
The purpose of my presentation is to articulate the experiences and perspectives of students with a learning disability, how they perceive their disability and learning environment, and to communicate instructional practices that hinder and enhance their learning.
I have created a link to the MSV Educational Network webpage to provide additional details and to respond to questions.
