156. From Special Educator to Education Advocate, ft. Markeisha Hall
Markeisha Hall is a mother to 4, including her autistic son, a former special educator, an IEP expert, a podcaster, and so much more! And today she’s joined us to chat all about practical tips to take with you to your next IEP meeting (hint: send notes to the WHOLE team ahead of time, bring someone with you, & stay focused). Plus, she’s giving us insight into the minds of the teachers as they prepare for IEP meetings and sharing about why it’s important for parents to chat with each other about their child’s IEP services! Communication is KEY. Markeisha also opens up about the process of receiving her son’s autism diagnosis while in the middle of adopting him and what it was like going from a special educator to a parent of an autistic son. We’re so grateful for her powerful story and sound wisdom!
