I feel you... sometimes really experienced teachers who are highly recommended are terrible for kids who are really, truly "out there". Everyone LOOOOVED my DS's teacher last year.. but my son had a super hard time with her. She didn't appear to really have any patience for his difficulties, nor did she seem at all bothered by the fact that he knew 100% of the material and wasn't learning anything. Drove me crazy. This year has been much better (though not perfect!).
