Teacher, mom, dad, school:
I want to help you, and that's why I'm here.

It is essential to create experiences that support the
HOLISTIC DEVELOPMENT of the child.

About Me
I am Clara Sánchez, a hard worker by nature and an advocate for human rights, equal opportunities, and the elimination of barriers. All children have the right to access tailored educational materials, resources, and experiences based on their characteristics, needs, and preferences, allowing them to develop to the fullest in every sense.
People-centered: For me, personal well-being is the most important thing.
I have worked as a specialist teacher for autistic children. I have worked in both Spain and Switzerland, where I lived and worked for three years.
Throughout my career as a teacher, I have always sought out the best teaching methods and materials to work with my students. Too often, I have found it very difficult to find suitable materials that truly meet the individual needs of my students. For this reason, I have chosen to create my own high-quality resources that are useful and promote the holistic development of each child, which have consistently led to very positive and immediate results.
Because all children deserve educational experiences where they are seen, understood, and respected.
Because I don't believe in generic solutions for unique people.
Because inclusion is not an option, it is a right .
Education
I graduated with a degree in Primary Education and the first two years of secondary education from the University of Seville, Spain. I specialized in teaching English as a second language from the Pädagogische Hochschule Zürich (SEMP). I studied a Master's degree in Pedagogical Sciences specializing in Deafblindness at the University of Groningen. I wrote my Master's thesis on how people with congenital deafblindness can perceive music.
I have taken various courses specific to autism and learning experience design, which have allowed me to specialize in this field. I have also completed courses on innovation and innovative pedagogical methodologies, as well as the best technological resources for working with autistic children, their applications in the classroom, and their benefits.
