I’m Dr. Kevin Hogge, an educator, author, and advocate with over twenty years of experience in the special and general education sectors. I was born and raised in Virginia, and in 1992, I received my Bachelor of Arts from Virginia Wesleyan University, then proceeded to earn a Master of Education in Administration and Supervision, an Education Specialist (Ed.S.) in Special Education Curriculum, and a Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Education with a concentration in Curriculum and Instruction from Liberty University.
Throughout my professional life, I have been trying to create a new image of education, especially for students with disabilities. I am a firm believer that learning should not be confined to the classroom and should cater not only to children’s needs but also to their abilities, thereby creating a more competent, confident, and socially accepted child who is able to withstand life’s challenges.
My work is a mixture of theory, practice, and passion. My aim is the same no matter if I am designing inclusive programs, mentoring teachers, or writing about transition and life skills: to make learning significant, real, and liberating for all students.
I believe education should go beyond textbooks and classrooms, focusing on each child’s unique abilities and potential. My mission is to create learning experiences that help students build confidence, develop real-world skills, and succeed in all aspects of life.
