About+Me



My name is Cindy Aslan and I am a sophomore Early Childhood / Special Education Major at York College of PA. For the fall semester of 2011, I transferred to York from CW Post Long Island University in Brookville, NY. I enjoy working with children of all special needs and believe I will make a great teacher. I have had alot of experience teaching and working with children who have special needs. I have worked and volunteered for the ANCHOR program which is a summer camp and school year program for children and adults with special needs for 6 years. This summer i was just hired to work at Camp Loyaltown which is located in Hunter, NY and is an overnight camp for children of adults with disabilities which I am really looking foward to beacuse i know that it will be an amazing experience. In the classroom, I have had a lot of experience working with Penny Ellis, who is a Life Skills teacher at Oceanside High School in New York. At college, I am also very involved in the Best Buddies program here which develops one-on-one friendships between typical college students and young adults in the community with disabilities. I hope that after college I will get a job as a special education teacher somewhere close to home so i can be with my family. I hope i will be able to make a difference in the lives of my students one day.
