0 1/ exaggerated propaganda is not credible

Some parents are attracted by the slogan of "curing autism", which not only wastes money, but also delays their children's precious time.

At present, there is no clear conclusion about the cause of autism, so what is the cure? Parents and teachers who have been in contact with autistic children for a long time understand that there is no radical cure, only to improve their self-care ability, speech and social interaction. And be closer to ordinary children.

Those exaggerated organizations just caught the parents' desire for their children to be better. Some things are actually urgent and will only harm people. Parents are worried, anxious, painful and confused, and the market is full of all kinds of "therapies" and effect guarantees, which is too impulsive.

Before making a decision, you must collect more information, don't listen to one person, and never let anxiety interfere with rational decision-making.

02/ Institutional qualification is very important.

At present, many private autism rehabilitation institutions are not approved, supervised and certified, and the training effect is difficult to be clear. The supervision of such institutions is blank. The current situation of autism rehabilitation industry is also worrying.

At present, most autism rehabilitation institutions in China are private non-enterprises. When you know about the organization, you can check the qualifications of the organization and whether there is a registration certificate issued by the Civil Affairs Bureau.

Secondly, you can check whether this institution is the designated institution of the local Disabled Persons' Federation. If it is the designated institution of the local disabled persons' Federation, it can enjoy state subsidies, and the subsidies will increase accordingly in combination with different local policies.

03/ Professional Teaching Team

There is a shortage of teachers in both legal institutions and marginal institutions. Because there are more and more autistic children, professional teachers can't keep up; As a result, many institutions have lowered the requirements for recruiting teachers, mainly from kindergarten teachers or high schools, so that teachers can explore their own growth after short-term training.

Autism rehabilitation is a new industry, and not many professionals have studied how to recover. Those who have been recovering for decades are somewhat unreliable. After all, autism was discovered in China for more than 30 years, and the first institution in China was established for more than 20 years. If there is a special education teacher who has written for more than 20 years, we have to put a question mark in our hearts.

Parents should understand the professional background of institutional teachers. Teachers with autism who are recovering should have "professional background in rehabilitation therapy, special education, psychology and early childhood education", among which rehabilitation therapy and special education are the best. At the same time, it is necessary to judge whether the teacher is professional, caring and patient through communication.

04/ Standardized teaching procedures

Professional institutions should have scientific and systematic professional evaluation methods and tests, evaluate each child's ability, master the overall quality and ability of children, and formulate a systematic rehabilitation plan.

This institution has perfect teaching mode and rich teaching activities (half-day training and conversation training are better, full-time class time is longer, which is easy to make autistic children physically and mentally exhausted, thus affecting the rehabilitation effect, and lack of contact with the external environment is not conducive to their growth. ), a systematic personal intervention plan. Therefore, parents should understand the whole process from booking registration to arranging training, whether the process is standardized, and whether the teaching mode and its arrangement are appropriate.

If the selected institution has neither teaching plans nor data records, and the teachers of the institution have no complete implementation plan for the children's courses, the children's lessons may depend entirely on the experience of the teachers, then the teaching risk is really too high!

05/ Scientific Training Methods

Formal and legal institutions will adopt training methods that have been scientifically proved to be effective, and will not blindly implement some methods that have not been proved to be effective in practice. The most commonly used and practical training methods in the United States and Taiwan Province Province mainly include ABA, floor time, sensory training and structured teaching. The training of autistic children should pay attention to social development, so it is particularly important to carry out group training, social integration education and social practice courses.

Therefore, parents should understand the methods used in institutional teaching and know whether these methods are routine and universal. If you have never heard the name of this method, or even can't understand its teaching principle, you'd better not try it easily.

06/ Good teaching environment

Teaching environment is also very important for autistic children. NGO registration requires a legal fixed site of more than 250 square meters and a lease contract of more than 3 years (this is to stabilize the school).

Many private organizations cannot meet this requirement. The school space is small, the environment is crowded and disorderly, and individual counseling rooms are very narrow. Children will feel depressed in the consulting room, which is extremely unfavorable to the stability of their emotions and behaviors.

Some institutions often move to other places, unable to provide stable teaching venues, and the teaching equipment and hardware facilities are not perfect.

High-quality institutions will have good order, warm environment and good cultural atmosphere. Therefore, parents should visit the inspection institution on the spot to see if the classroom is spacious and bright and the layout is clean and tidy. It would be better if it felt warmer.

07/ Number of students in the institution

A good institution will have a stable source of students and a good reputation from parents, so students usually have to queue up for training. When inspecting institutions, it is necessary to know whether the students of the institutions are stable. If the number of students in the institution is small and the mobility is high, it means that the teaching quality of the institution cannot attract parents. If there are no students in an institution, parents are advised not to risk letting their children do experiments.
