Hi! I'm Laura Carr.  I started Carr Educational Services, LLC. to meet the unique needs of neurodiverse students.  I have taught Special Education since 2011 and have enjoyed working with preschool, elementary, high school, and young adult learners in many different educational settings.  I have worn many hats during my career in education, and as a result, I understand the unique needs of students in grades K-12.

Some examples of my classroom work experience:

• Resource Specialist Teacher 2nd-5th

• Special Education English Teacher 9th & 12th

• Collaborative English Teacher 9th, 10th & 12th

• Life Skills Teacher, Age 18-22

My passion is helping students develop their independence and autonomy as scholars.  I love teaching students the skills they need to become strong readers and writers.  I firmly believe that learning to read is one of the greatest skills we can teach an individual.  Once you know how to read, you can learn anything.
