Summary

As my skills I am great with communication and patience, I am motivated and I adapt to new situations and challenges Follow and implement behavior intervention plans created by the BCBA. Accurately collect and record data on the individual's behavior, skill acquisition, and progress. Maintain detailed records to track changes and inform decision-making. I worked directly with clients to provide one-on-one instruction and support. This may involve teaching new skills, addressing challenging behaviors, and facilitating social interactions. Conduct assessments to identify the individual's strengths, weaknesses, and specific areas that require intervention. Assist in ongoing evaluations of progress. Maintain open and effective communication with the BCBA, the client's family, and other members of the treatment team to ensure that everyone is informed about the individual's progress and needs. Handle crisis situations or challenging behaviors following established protocols and guidelines to ensure the safety of the client and others. Adhere to ethical standards and maintain professional boundaries in all interactions with clients and their families. I would engage in ongoing training and professional development to stay up-to-date with the latest ABA techniques, methodologies, and research. This includes using ABA techniques and strategies to target specific behaviors and skill deficits.
