About Chaka
As both an educator and a parent, I bring a unique perspective and deep understanding to teaching children with Asperger’s. My journey began with my own son, who has Asperger’s, and who is now a published author and illustrator. He has been my greatest teacher, through him, I’ve gained firsthand experience in creating supportive, patient, and effective learning environments tailored to the unique needs of children who are neurodivergent. Professionally, I specialize in helping children with diverse needs develop skills in reading, comprehension (a challenge my son has), and communication. I use a personalized, interest-based approach to ensure lessons are engaging, meaningful, and fun. My methods emphasize structure, encouragement, and celebrating every success to build confidence and foster a love for reading. I’m passionate about empowering children with Asperger’s to unlock their full potential. With empathy, creativity, and dedication, I aim to provide a safe and inspiring space where every student can thrive.

Chaka is an extraordinary teacher. She puts her heart and soul into making sure each student is thriving. Chaka has assisted me with my children and she takes time, attention to detail and engages each one on a level that they can learn based on their individual learning style. I have been blessed to have Chaka’s expertise to help set my children’s foundation for success. - I.A.
I'd like to speak directly to Chaka the person more than Chaka the teacher. Chaka the person has an innate ability to connect with people from all walks of life, no matter your circumstance there is no judgement, and there is no stopping until the job is done. Chaka the person is who you'd want as an educator because she simply will help you become a better you.
Chaka has a very patient and nurturing nature especially when it comes to teaching. She has experience with being the COO and instructor within a non profit organization focused on student and community growth and development. Chaka also possesses some impressive organizational skills which is paramount when breaking down and relaying unknown or misinterpreted information to a growing mind. What’s more, her critical thinking would allow students to look at the problem in more than one way to come to the needed solution.
