[quote=Anonymous]I agree with you PP about the poor teacher training. My sister has a Master's in special education. So when I first suspected dyslexia, I turned to her. Guess what? She knew NOTHING about it. She didn't even recall studying it in a well-respected Master's program in SPECIAL EDUCATION! So it is not just the general ed teachers that aren't informed, but the special education teachers as well. So after years of trying, my dyslexic child finally has an IEP for writing. But the special ed teacher doesn't know what to do with her because she's so smart. So just because you might get an IEP, it means nothing if the teachers aren't qualified to give your child what they need. In the fall, I am refusing all services because I think they hurt more than they helped -- but can't stand to think about all of the time and money I wasted on a consultant fighting for a worthless IEP![/quote]
