Today we have a guest sharing tools and strategies to support students with emotional behavioral challenges at the secondary level. We'll explore how to set students up for success in both general education and self-contained settings.

Laila Modzelewski is a special education teacher currently working in a grades 3-5 LLD self-contained class in New Jersey. Before moving to N.J. in 2020, she spent over a decade teaching an 8:1:1 Special Education class in NYC Public Schools. Laila holds a Master’s Degree in General and Special Education from Touro College. She believes deeply in the power of building strong relationships with her students, meeting them where they are, and creating a nurturing learning environment.

Topics Discussed

• Laila's teaching background
• Common behavioral struggles (and supportive strategies)
