‘Understanding your Neurodivergent/Twice-Exceptional Student or child’

Dr Lamb has worn many hats during her life. Neurodivergent herself, with a neurodiverse family, she spent twenty years as a teacher in STEM and special education and is now principal of Embrace Difference, a business supporting neurodivergent children in the education system, including provision of professional development in educational settings and advocacy services. She will share her experience on growing up and teaching ND students in a neurotypical world. This presentation will help answer these questions and more: What does twice-exceptional mean? What do the terms neurodivergent and neurotypical mean? How do I teach an ND student effectively? How do I work with the students’ parents without conflict? How can we build resilience and empower our ND students?
