Yo soy Andrés
I am Andrés
Hello to all this beautiful community. It is a pleasure for me to greet you wishing that you are well and enjoying the joy of another day of life. Since I subscribed to this community I told myself I will not write until I live the experience of educating a child with ASD, which stands for Autism Spectrum Disorder.
Creo que Dios me escucho, porque precisamente les quiero contar mi experiencia con Andres. Para empezar les cuento que soy Licenciada en Educación mención preescolar en mi país Venezuela, y en realidad en los centros educativos en los que me toco laborar casi nunca me tocaban esos casos en aula, ya que son casos especiales y si los padres no te informan pues te toca observarlo en el niño con diagnósticos previos.
I think God heard me, because I want to tell you about my experience with Andres. To begin with, I would like to tell you that I have a degree in Education, mentioning preschool in my country Venezuela, and actually in the educational centers where I worked I almost never had to deal with these cases in the classroom, since they are special cases and if the parents do not inform you, you have to observe it in the child with previous diagnoses.
Decidí abrir en mi casa un lugar para dar tareas dirigidas, osea niños que tuviesen alguna dificultad en hacer algunas tareas cuyos padres a decir verdad no tienen tiempo para ayudarlos y acuden a una docente que pueda ayudar a sus hijos en horas especificas. Yo acepté a Andres con esa condición.
I decided to open a place in my house to give directed homework, that is children who had some difficulty in doing some homework whose parents do not really have time to help them and go to a teacher who can help their children at specific times. I accepted Andres on that condition.
La mama no sabia que hacer, ni tenia los métodos para enseñarlo, yo tampoco jejeje porque soy educadora de preescolar no psicopedagoga que son las especialistas en esas áreas. Toco buscar información acerca de como aprende un niño que presente esa dificultad. De verdad ha sido un reto para mi.
En algunos momentos presta interés por la lectura
At certain times, he shows interest in reading
The mother did not know what to do, nor did she have the methods to teach him, neither did I hehehe because I am a preschool educator, not a psychopedagogue, who are the specialists in these areas. I had to look for information about how a child with this difficulty learns. It has really been a challenge for me.
Los niños con TEA tienen su mundo y no precisamente igual al nuestro, aprenden a otro ritmo, son muy inteligentes pero muy inquietos. Para hacer tareas con Andrés tengo que hacerlo bajo acuerdos osea hacemos una tarea y juegas un rato, hacemos otra tarea y te comes la merienda etc, para mi es una experiencia nueva y mas con él que tiene 8 años y esta en tercer grado.
Children with ASD have their own world and not exactly the same as ours, they learn at a different pace, they are very intelligent but very restless. To do homework with Andres I have to do it under agreements ie we do a task and you play for a while, we do another task and you eat the snack etc, for me it is a new experience and more with him who is 8 years old and is in third grade.
Su mama esta muy complacida, todos los días leo artículos referentes a esta condición para poder entenderlo mas y así poder ayudarlo, Pienso que si como docente no tienen paciencia con ellos es mejor que no lo intenten, porque ellos requieren demasiada paciencia y amor para enseñarles. Se que la mama se preocupa y hasta llora me dice que es difícil para ella, yo la lleno de animo para que entre la familia la escuela y nosotros podamos llevarlo hacia un desarrollo biopsicosocial donde él se pueda defender.
His mother is very pleased, every day I read articles about this condition to be able to understand him more and help him, I think that if as a teacher you do not have patience with them it is better not to try, because they require too much patience and love to teach them. I know that the mother worries and even cries, she tells me that it is difficult for her, I fill her with encouragement so that between the family, the school and us we can take him towards a biopsychosocial development where he can defend himself.

Hasta ahora esta ha sido mi experiencia con este tipo de educación especial y quería compartirla con todos ustedes. Hagamos del mundo de esos niños así como de otros niños con necesidades especial, un mundo mejor y que ellos al crecer puedan ser mejores personas cada día sin importar que condición presenten.
So far this has been my experience with this type of special education and I wanted to share it with all of you. Let's make the world of these children as well as other children with special needs, a better world and that they can grow up to be better people every day no matter what condition they have.
Saludos y muchas bendiciones familia
