The Autism Helper Podcast Episode 359: Doable Individual Instruction within the Classroom with Melissa Ziegler
In this episode of The Autism Helper Podcast, we’re joined by Melissa Ziegler, a kindergarten self-contained autism teacher, to talk about what individual instruction really looks like in practice. Melissa shares which skills most often require 1:1 teaching, how she fits individual instruction into a busy school day, and the systems and routines that help protect that time without everything else falling apart. She also discusses how to keep students engaged, choose meaningful instructional targets, and balance planning with responsiveness. This episode offers realistic encouragement - and actionable ideas - for teachers who want individual instruction to feel doable and effective in real classrooms.
