Shadow Teacher
A shadow teacher is a professional who provides individualized support to a student, often in an inclusive classroom setting. Their role is to assist the student with academic, social, or behavioral challenges, enabling them to participate and succeed in mainstream educational environments. Shadow teacher services are commonly utilized for students with special needs, including autism, ADHD, or learning disabilities.
