Re: LOOK FOR A RELIABLE PRIVATE SPEECH THERAPIST, ANY RECOMMENDATIONS? URGENT N
Hi gigi2,
We had our first training session on Sat and the ST said our girl's performance was excellent for the first session. She didn't cry at all like some other children and actively participated in all exercises. She even continued to "talk" to the ST when the ST was explaining to me how we should train her and what to do at home. So far our girl knows more about nouns than verbs. So the ST asks us to strengthen her vocabularies in this area. In order to encourage her to form short sentences, we should always call one's name before a verb. E.g. Mary drinks. Papa goes. Mama draws. Peter sleeps. By calling her name before giving her instructions, we would also get her attention to make the training easier and more effective.
We were very happy yesterday that when we were talking on the phone with my husband, I asked her to say "Bye bye Papa". She would always say either Bye bye or Papa but never the 2 words together. Yesterday after I had said it loud for several times, she followed and said"Bye bye Papa". We were all very happy. The last time she said these 2-word sentences were weeks ago when she said "Ma go" and "apa sit".
The ST recommended therapies once per week. We have arranged for other private therapies near our home which are every 2 weeks to begin in May. We will try both to see who works better with our girl.
