⟩ Tell us have you ever found yourself in a situation where you felt helpless because of the mental or emotional condition of a student? What happened?
I was once providing one-on-one assistance to a 6 year old boy and instantly recognized signs of some type of mental limitation. While the child was intelligent and participative, there was something that nagged me from the way he responded to my questions. I went to the lead teacher with my observations, and upon intervention, it was discovered that he had a small tumor in his brain that was limiting his memory and perception.
