  Case: Student scared to engage
I have a student in my internship who has Cerebral Palsy. I recently found out he was very atheltic before his numerous surgeries kept him wheelchair bound. Now, he just responds "That sucks" to everything. Every book, every assignment, and every opportunity results in "That sucks." How can I get him to be more engaged and enthusiatic?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
This is definitely difficult. I would try to have a very upbeat class and maybe focus a lesson on successful people with those types of things.
