myLIFEspeaks is passionate about providing a higher level of learning and a safe place for special needs and typically developing children to learn and grow together.
Our integrative school, LIFE Academy, is creating the opportunities and instilling the confidence that both general and special education students need to transform their future and their generation.
This level of integration, critical thinking, and higher learning is a new concept for education in Haiti and myLIFEspeaks is proud to lead this cultural transformation in Neply.
LIFE Academy's foundation is built on 3 target areas:
-
Christ-Centered Education
-
Special Needs Education and Advocacy
-
A Higher Level of Distinguished Learning
​
LIFE Academy teachers and teaching assistants are dedicated to educating students that can think critically and solve problems inside and outside the typical classroom.
Both general and special education teachers value one-on-one interaction with their students and utilize hands-on teaching methods that are unique to classrooms in Haiti.
