  • S2 E2 Educators need to know this about students with cerebral palsy, Azucena García-Ferro
    Mar 23 2024

    Azucena Garcia-Ferro is an incredible ambassador for students with cerebral palsy, though in truth, she is an ambassador for all students. She sees the need for the youth of today to be partners in the educational proces, to have different opportunities in relation to learning modalities, to have teachers who present information through many different means and who aren't afraid - rather welcome - questions from the room. As an educator, a parent or a student with cerebral palsy, you're going to be amazed at the variety of information Azucena offers in a graceful, compassionate, yet straightforward way that will help everyone in a classroo.
