CHRISTINE A. KOVACH, PH.D.

FOUNDER/PRESIDENT
I have a doctorate in Special Education with a concentration in curriculum and instruction and over 35 years experience working with and designing instruction for students having disabilities and those identified as at-risk. I have focused upon the importance of data collection and analysis to guide instruction throughout my career and I am excited to be working with my sister to bring exceptional targeted learning opportunities to all children with our specialized learning activities.
I have worked as a Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant (COTA/L) since graduating in 1988 - following an  indirect path to O.T. - first obtaining a B.A. in design with a business management minor.  Through the years, I  developed Teach-N-Ties and frequently consulted with my sister giving input into her products . We decided to  combine our expertise and Two Can Tech was born.  I am particularly excited about the Handwriting Accuracy  Monitoring System (HAMS) which was developed by doing comprehensive research and testing of techniques  that I had been using for years and adding in her educational expertise and penchant for data collection and  analysis.  The HAMS is a unique, comprehensive progress monitoring system that can be universally applied to  samples, providing relevant, consistent data on practically any writing prompt generated in a school setting.   Most recently, I have really enjoyed the process of developing the apps for our EAGLE products.
