Rationale: Special education teacher assistants need certification to work with students with special needs. Employers ask about this to ensure you have the required certification. Before your interview, check if a specific certification is needed. If yes, confirm you have it; if not, express your readiness to obtain it.


Answer: Certainly, I am certified to assist special needs students. I hold a Special Education Bachelor's degree and a California state certification for Special Education Teacher Assistants. My diverse experience includes working with students of different ages, abilities, and backgrounds. I can create personalized learning plans tailored to each student's unique needs and goals. Additionally, I've supported teachers in classrooms and am well versed in assistive technology for enhancing access to curriculum and maximizing students' potential.
