There’s a student that’s a selective mute. She apparently stopped talking generally at the age of 4 due to trauma. Been working with her for a year and usually she just waves but today she said good morning to me

Genuinely teared up she trusts me, my work isn’t for nothing.

For the (literally) hundreds of you in my dms asking, I’m a teaching assistant but I’ve been working mainly with children who have learning difficulties, autism and trauma

I’m also a pending fitness professional!! I’ve been sharing my weight loss journey on my YouTube which you can check out here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXWNE_24QYvoIeqGViDH2Lw
