    3 Tips for a Healthy Voice

    Professional voice users such as singers, teachers, lawyers, and anyone who uses their voice excessively during their work day can benefit from a healthy voice. Most of us take our voices for granted until we lose our voice or become hoarse. Even when we are hoarse, many of us will push and strain our voices. Yet, we will stretch before going for a run or warm up before playing a soccer game. We may even play scales before playing an instrument. But how many of us actually wa

    Baby Talk: Cute or Not?

    My child uses baby talk and it's sooo cute. I don't think there's anything wrong with it. But her teachers are saying she's hard to understand and it can hinder her reading skills. Is that true? Yes... a child who is showing difficulty with pronunciation can indicate that they may develop challenges with learning to read as well as reading comprehension. For younger children, a good rule of thumb to use when concerned about your child's speech is to determine if they can be u

    Encouraging your Child to Use Language

    "My baby is 12 months old and he still has not said his first word. What should I do? This is a question often asked by parents. Just because your child hasn't said his first word by his birthday doesn't mean that they are delayed, but it is something to keep an eye on. Below are some ways that parents can encourage children to use language. 1. Don't anticipate your child's needs. Try to let them communicate what they want by using words. 2. Speak slowly and use short phrases

    4 Accent Modification Myths

    Should I really consider an Accent Training Coach? In this blog post we’ll address a few of the myths about accent modification. Myth 1. I already spent time and money on learning English, an accent class won't teach me anything new. Truth: Accent coaches are experts on pronunciation. They work with people who already speak English fluently. The focus is on speaking English clearly to improve personal and professional relationships that open doors for career advancement. You

    What I learned when my children boarded a plane without me...

    "It is surprising to notice that even from the earliest age, man finds the greatest satisfaction in feeling independent. The exalting feeling of being sufficient to oneself comes as a revelation." - Maria Montessori It sounded like a good idea 4 months ago. People were surprised that we would let a 12 year old and a 7 year old fly alone to visit their aunt and uncle. But I was confident. Naturally, as it got closer, I got more nervous. But a little background about us... we

    My kid's still in speech therapy for /r/ after 2 years. Is it supposed to take that long?

    Speech therapy for articulation involves a lot of work because it's about unlearning bad habits, retraining new habits, and then generalizing those skills to your child's everyday conversation. Traditional speech therapy works for the majority of children who have trouble producing their speech sounds correctly. It's been used since the 1970's and there is plenty of research to back it up. But sometimes traditional speech therapy isn't enough... there are other things that c
