Who am I? Who is Sharkey Support? I have my Masters, several years of special education experience as well as 8 years working with families providing behaviour consultation & support. Sharkey Support Services was born out of my years of experience in the public and private school systems. I was tired of kids falling through the cracks, or the education system not supporting their teachers to deal with the wide variety of special needs that come into their classroom each year.
Sharkey Support Services has provided mobile private teaching, behaviour consultation and homeschool/classroom support services to special learning needs students for the last 6 years in Calgary and have decided to move closer to our family in Kamloops. We will continue to provide these services in the Kamloops area. Please check out what our Calgary families and service providers had to say about our services.
We work with students - on the Autism Spectrum including PDD-NOS
- with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder
- with Global Developmental Delays
- with Apraxia, speech delays, and communication disorders (with SLP support)
- with severe Attention Deficit - Hyperactive, Implusive, and Combined Type
- with Dyslexia, Dysgraphia & Dyscalculia
- with working memory deficits including as the result of seizure disorders
- with learning differences ranging from processing speed and undefined learning disabilities to executive functioning disorders and reading/writing/math disorders
We provide professional development for schools and families on how to use the iPad as an accommodation. We call it Master the iPad. We use the iPad in every situation that is appropriate and help integrate students into their classroom using the iPad as their primary support. Check out our Master the iPad program.

Thank you to the Ability Society for allowing me to present the option of homeschooling to their patrons!
