Sophia Hubbell is currently a full-time doctoral student in Special Education at Kent State University in the Early Childhood Special Education Program.

Ms. Hubbell is interested in improving services for students with disabilities whose needs cross typical categories of service.  Towards that mission her work and research focus on how to differentiate instruction in the general education setting for all students by increasing teachers' uses of research in the classroom to inform instruction and promoting a collaborative rather than an isolated culture of instruction in teaching. Additionally, she is interested in researching educational service delivery models and student grouping practices that address the needs of students who do not fit into typical categories of service.

Ms. Hubbell is licensed to teach children with and without disabilities from preschool through grade three. She has experience teaching multiage classes of 3-5 year-, 5-8 year- and 7-9 year-groupings as well as graded classes. She has taught in both public and private schools.

Ms. Hubbell earned her master’s degree in Child Development from Tufts University in Medford, Massachusetts and her bachelor’s degree in Geography from Mount Holyoke College in South Hadley, Massachusetts.
