Bella, Siu Man Chan
2660 Folkestone Way,
West Vancouver, BC, V7S 3H8 (604) 600-5208 [email protected] To Whom It May Concern, I am writing this letter to express my interest to further advance my knowledge and understanding in the field of education, with an intense focus on special education and Autism. My passion is to improve the quality life of children with Autism and other learning disabilities through my education and many years of professional experience working with children in home and in various educational settings. I have completed the Masters degree at UBC in Special Education in 2014, with a concentration in Autism. The program has allowed me to study the framework of evident based interventions to improve the conditions of children with learning difficulties. In summer 2014, I was fortunate to become the classroom assistant at the University of British Columbia International Summer Program, where I provided learning support for 2 undergraduate courses and assisted international students from partner universities in China. My role was to help them understand course content using both English and Mandarin as needed .In 2015, I was offered an adjunct professor position at the University of British Columbia, where I taught again in the International Summer Program at UBC: EPSE 432 Classroom management and EPSE 433 Assessment and Positive Behavior Support in School and Community Setting. I became a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) in 2014. With many years of preparation as a behavior therapist at ABA Learning Centre since 2008, I hope to continue to deliver evidence-based interventions primarily with children with special needs between ages 3-12 years old. I have extensive experience in conducting behavioral assessments, designing behavioral support plans, and providing training to parents and Behavior Interventionists on related topics. I also helped bridge the home, school and the community learning environments for these children, and support them to become more integrated into their families and into the society. In addition to my experience in the university level teaching position, I am currently a member of the Positive Behavior Support (PBS) workgroup directed by Joe Lucyshn (Professor at the University of British Columbia). I attend and contribute at monthly meetings and work together with my colleagues to develop culturally responsive PBS training for families in Asian countries. We are in the process of developing and participating in workshops in North America and in Asia. I believe my fluency in multiple languages, training and broad experiences in working with children with developmental disabilities are strong assets will be of value to the client base and achievements of the organization. Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to connecting with you. Sincerely, Bella, Siu Man Chan
