About Me
Hi! I'm Dr. Nicole Caldwell, and I've been teaching children and teens with autism for about 14 years. I hold a Master's degree and PhD in special education with an emphasis on teaching students with autism. I work with children in their homes to help them learn social skills, communication and language, and academics.
My background is in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) and Montessori. I use these types of teaching methods in a way that is relaxed, natural, fun, play-based, and respectful of the wonderful uniqueness of children with autism.
How Can I Help Your Family?
Services
I work with children and their families in Rockwall, Texas (and the surrounding cities) on:
-
Online Classes for Middle and High School Students (see the "Working with Dr. Caldwell" menu at at the top of this page for more information).
There are so many choices out there for homeschool curriculum! Here, you'll find detailed reviews and information about curriculum and autism books so that you can make informed decisions for your child.
I also create many of my own lesson plans and learning activities that blend academic subjects with the favorite interests and individual learning styles of the students I work with. I love to make learning motivating for your child!
