When answering this question, focus on a specific instance where you successfully advocated for a student. Describe the situation, the student's needs, the actions you took, and the outcome. Highlight your communication skills, empathy, and understanding of special education laws and policies. For example:
"In my previous role, I had a student who was struggling with the standard curriculum due to their learning disability. I noticed that the student was becoming increasingly frustrated and disengaged. I scheduled a meeting with the student's parents and the school administration to discuss the possibility of an Individualized Education Plan (IEP). I presented data and observations to support my case. As a result, the student received the necessary accommodations and showed significant improvement in their academic performance and overall well-being."
