Jennifer Toscano, an aid for children with Autism, writes about her experience with one of her students, Matthew. The way she delivers her story in such a calming, loving way shows that she wants to reach out to parents, teachers and even children who are effected by Autism. Her style of writing portrays that she is a teacher of young children. Her vocabulary isn't heightened, but in her profession, it doesn't need to be. This style of writing helps relate to her audience of fellow teachers, parents and children because she delivers her words in such a way that parents and teachers will respect her opinion and the things she has to say, and children will listen because she is to the point so there's no room for distraction.
The way in which she delivers her story through the Autism Speaks Blog forum, makes it easy to locate for special education teachers, and parents of autistic children. Being located on this website, gives parents of autistic children hope that their children will be cared for and taught correctly by teachers who care about their future, and that have their best interest at heart.
By using the Autism Speaks website blog, you can guess that it was put there for a reason. Giving people affected by autism hope is encouraging and helpful when dealing with it. Patience and courage is what it will take when teaching these children. This website, and this blog especially, translate that.
