Brad Cohen, talks about his struggle to become a teacher:



Brad Cohen, award-winning teacher, author, motivational speaker and Tourette's advocate talks about his struggle to become a teacher having grown up with the neurological disorder Tourette syndrome. He travels to Britain to help improve awareness in schools about the special educational challenges faced by children with the disorder. Teachers in Britain receive little training about disorders such as Tourette's (and autism) and the related educational needs of students. Understanding of Tourette's and other related conditions in British schools, colleges and universities is consequently low and resource allocation/adjustments to reduce disadvantage for students in the classroom, correspondingly few.
