Is the intervener a classroom teacher?
The intervener is not the classroom teacher but provides no less a vital service than his or her counterpart. The intervener is under the direction of the teacher and the relationship between the two must be emotionally strong. It may take much effort for each person to be able to discuss, explore, and work together to create the best possible learning situation for the child. The teacher and intervener must respect each other and all people who work in various roles with the deafblind child. When this practice occurs teachers, interveners, and all students will meet at the center of the room and will benefit greatly.
