Either that or, an accessibility consultant for someone.

Last year during my Practicum experience, my cooperating teacher was very busy doing other things, getting her initial evaluations done for her students, and her schedule became very crazy. Her assistant Braillist did not know the Nemeth code of Braille, so I volunteered to help this teacher adapt / create math worksheets in Nemeth for our 5th grader's math assignments. It was a humbling experience.
