Helping Students with Autistic Spectrum Disorder in Foreign Classroom

Abstract

[ES]He elegido enseñar inglés a niños y niñas con autismo porque trabajo con niños y alguno de ellos tiene autismo. Este tema es complejo. La gente tiende a pensar que sabe mucho sobre autismopero simplemente tienen ideas vagas sobre un tema complejo, con numerosos puntos de vista y con distintos tipos de desarrollo, dependiendo del individuo y su grado de autismo. No todos los individuos con desorden de espectro autista tiene las mismas peculiaridades.
