Michelle Angela Rodger
Makaton Tutor
Michelle Angela Rodger, married with 2 boys worked as a medical receptionist for 10 years. Started work at Alloa Academy in 2009 supporting learners with ASN (additional support needs) I had an interest in this particular field.
In 2011 I moved into EASN (extended additional support needs) supporting learners with mild/moderate to severe/complex needs in education.
With a passion for communication, I started learning Makaton, my dream was to become a tutor, to teach and share my passion with others. September 2021 I qualified as a Makaton tutor and fulfilled my passion to teach and spread awareness of the Makaton communication programme.
Currently studying level 2 BSL (British Sign Language) hoping to progress as far as I can and put my skills into practice.
