Seminar with an ABA Therapist: 'How to Choose a School or Kindergarten: A Practical Guide for Parents'

Choosing a school or kindergarten is an important decision that affects your child's future. How to make this choice consciously and effectively? In the seminar, we will discuss:
- Different educational models, their advantages and disadvantages;
- What the peer environment can offer a child;
- The role of a tutor in the educational process;
- How to organize school or kindergarten attendance as effectively as possible.

At the end of the meeting, you will have the opportunity to ask questions on the topic.

The seminar is conducted by:
Alexandra Primaikina - ABA specialist working with teenagers:
"I have been working with children with developmental disabilities for 8 years. I received an education in 'special (defectological) education' at the Ural State Pedagogical University, completed a tutor course with Anastasia Semyannikova at ABA-school, completed 5 training modules in behavioral analysis at 'Step Forward' and ACT courses from Ekaterina Krylova. I constantly upgrade my qualifications through articles, webinars, and supervisions.

During my work, I have been a tutor, therapist, and curator of programs for children and teenagers with ASD and ADHD in various settings — from individual sessions to public places. I ran my own center where I organized the work of a therapeutic team and cooperation with parents.

My main interest is working with teenagers with ASD, regardless of skill level. I have experience with teenagers who are both well-spoken and those who lack speech understanding and social skills. An important part of the work is correcting undesirable behavior and developing social skills in natural environments: at home, at school, in playgrounds, and in sections."
