My name is Fotini Pseftogianni and I hold a BSc (Hons) in Philosophy, Education and Psychology. My area of specialisation is Psychology, which I have practiced over six years.
Over the last four years, I have had the opportunity to work on the design and implementation of interventions for children, young people and adults mostly in the autism spectrum disorder. This job has enabled me to expand my knowledge, skills and experience on a range of conditions, such as learning disorders, ADHD, counselling, parental support, aggressive behavioural disorders (anger management), down syndrome, cerebral palsy and speech disorders. In the past, I acted as a day care centre director and supervisor, which gave furnished me with invaluable skills and experience in management, administration, communication and organisation that could be very useful for the position I am applying.
Finally, working with children with special needs is about learning, since these children have to teach us a lot. It is very important for me to help children and make their time more enjoyable, creative and exciting.
