Meet Reid
My name is Reid Burns, Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA). With over 30 years of experience, I specialize in supporting students with autism and other disabilities in public schools as a classroom teacher, administrator, and now as an educational consultant. My passion lies in helping students of all ability levels achieve greater independence and success by building on their unique strengths and skills.
Through my experience working with students, families, and educators of various backgrounds in San Diego, CA, and the surrounding communities, I'm able to bring a unique sensitivity and awareness of diverse cultural backgrounds and their impact on education.

Is it time to hire an educational consultant?
Is it time to hire an educational consultant?
Many parents choose to work with an independent educational consultant because they are unhappy with the results of an IEP or are not getting the support they need through the school.
An educational consultant can act as a mediator, taking the data available, acting as an advocate for the student, and ensuring the right services are being implemented in the classroom without a lengthy and expensive due process.
My hope is to help districts and parents reach a compromise through alternative dispute resolution, and to help families focus on what really matters: making sure the student is getting the education and support they deserve.
