Special education aides work alongside special education teachers and/or therapists to teach children/ youth with emotional and behavior disorders, intellectual disabilities, problems with communication or physical disabilities. Special education aides work with children/youth individually or in small group settings. Working under the supervision of a therapist or special education teacher, aides use methods like games and exercises to help children/youth develop physically, behavioral, and academically. One of the primary job functions of a special education aid is to provide support to the teacher in a classroom setting. Though the other duties of an aide may vary depending on the needs of the students, all aides can expect to work directly with teachers on tasks like lesson planning and paperwork. Special education aides are also relied on to help students in the classroom with physical requests, such as eating, grooming and toileting. Most important, aides ensure a safe environment and prevent students from hurting themselves or others.
