“Working with children with special needs and seeing their progress, along with the happy faces of their parents, feels rewarding to me. Hence, pursuing developmental psychology helps me better understand children's development and equips me with the right knowledge to help them thrive in every aspect of their lives, including social, emotion, cognitive, and personality development. I hope that with the knowledge and skills I've gained, I can help children strive to be the best versions of themselves.”

“My inspiration to become a speech therapist came from an interaction I had with a young special needs child when I was a teenager. Her unique way of communication made me interested to learn more. Speech therapy is not just a job but something where my heart is. I hope to help every child reach their potential and communicate meaningfully with others.”

“My decision to become a speech therapist is fueled by both encouragement and interest in this field. It is a great reward for me to contribute my knowledge to the development of special needs children, especially as I had a sibling with special needs. Every special needs child has their own way to communicate and interact with others. Hope that I can help them create a positive difference in their lives.”

“Each child has unique challenges and potentials, and I want to be a guiding force in helping them overcome obstacles to achieve their goals. By fostering independence and enhancing daily living skills, I can empower these children to experience joy and success in their everyday lives. Witnessing their growth and progress fills me with a sense of purpose and fulfillment, reinforcing my commitment to making a positive impact in their lives.”

“老师这一行一点都不简单，要面对压力还有家长的要求。可是，当看到学生一点一点的进步时，一切都是值得的。 虽然这一条路真的很不好走 ，想要在金钱和事业平衡真的很不可以…有时觉得付出了这么多，可是换回来的回报却是那么的少…两者只能选择其一。我不是一个出色的老师，可是，我是一个负责任的老师… 永远都是学生第一自己第二。做这一份工，最重要的是看见学生有进步，还有家长的笑容，真的是一切值得…”

“Although being a special need educator is challenging, the positive impact that I can contribute to the students' independence in their later life makes the job worthwhile.”

“I enjoy working with special needs children because they often teach us as much as we teach them. I became a special needs teacher because I was a problematic child myself and understand the frustration of being reprimanded for not following instructions, even when having a different perspective. My goal is to help these children learn and meet societal expectations. While it can be challenging, being a special needs teacher is incredibly rewarding.”

“Ever since I was in secondary school, I’ve always wanted to be a special needs teacher. This desire came from observing those in the special needs class in my school . Now, through my determination and the right qualifications, I’ve managed to pursue my dream and am dedicated to making education accessible for all students.”

“Special needs children are at their early stages in life where they have many opportunities to learn and grow. As they undergo various life challenges, I wish to partake in the journey of providing them with the love, support and empowerment to help them live a quality life.”

“I have never thought that I would become a teacher when I was younger. I attended high school in a private school where I got the opportunity to befriend and teach some children with special needs. I realized that I was able to work well with them and it gave me a sense of fulfillment. I then decided to pursue a career in special education. Although challenging, being a teacher allows me to be vital part of a child’s life and it brings me joy to see children overcome personal struggles and unlocking their true potential.”

“I have a cousin that is a high functioning ADD. When he was younger, I noticed the lack of understanding and awareness towards him and other special needs in general. I went on to study and educated myself more about special needs and along the journey managed to find a job as a Special Needs Teacher in Hatching Center.”

“Apart from mainstream education, special needs education also needs to be emphasized for the progress in the society. As a responsible person, I have to take a big initiative to ensure that education for special needs kids is not neglected and take part in this field.”

“Special need kids are never a liability, they are an asset:" that quote keeps me motivated day by day to keep striving for the kids. being a mainstream teacher for 5 years is never enough to challenge me, so I decided to continue my study in special need education field. as the day goes by, I fell in love more and more for my current job. Seeing they achieve something that others think they cannot do is indescribable feeling.”

“I want to become a special needs teacher assistant because I believe every child deserves patience, support and the opportunity to shine. Helping them learn, grow and gain confidence in doing things brings me joy, and I want to contribute to their growth and be a guide on their path to success.”

“My passion grew for special needs education when helping with my ASD niece who is in her 20s now and my son who was a delayed learner, a severe picky eater, had silent reflux & had speech delay. I poured in a lot of time and effort to help him and he is now at par with his peers at 12yo. This helped me decide a few years back to study and pursue a new career in Special Needs Education with the hope to help more children. Watching children progress and grow brings a lot of joy to me.”

“I choose to work here because I like to see students eating well. The teachers are treating me well.”
