    Hoagland's On Stuttering and Sedaris's Me Talk Pretty: Overcoming Speech Impediments

    Language is a unique form of communication system used all around the world, in many different cultures and variations. In the short stories, On Stuttering, by Edward Hoagland, and Me Talk Pretty by David Sedaris, the authors discuss how they had to overcome obstacles in their everyday lives because of their speech impediments. They describe how they felt about their limitations, different strategies they used to defeat their language barriers, and the affects that theses obstacles had on their self confidence.

    Monster's True Intent

    In group 2A there was a five year old girl by the name Norma Pugh. In the second session with Tudor, it was clear that she did not want to talk. Another child that was nine years old named Betty Romp actually refused to talk in general. These two kids were in the group that were fluent speaking but told that they were going to become stutterers if they did not fix these issues immediately. The kids in this group were afraid that if they were talking that they were going to start stuttering. They eventually started to struggle saying certain words. This proved to Tudor and Johnson that stuttering is actually something that can affect anyone if they are giving a certain type of reinforcement. Johnson started this experiment to prove that if a child is labeled as a stutterer, they could become a stutterer. This is was proven true because five of the six orphans in the group of fluent speakers that were given negative reinforcement, became…

    Integrated Phonological Awareness Intervention Case Study

    One strategy that EYPs could use to help SLI children is by conducting a language intervention programme. Gail (2000) investigated the effectiveness of an integrated phonological awareness intervention approach for children with SLI. Children participated in three different programmes in which one of them was an integrated phonological awareness programme. Results from all three interventions were analysed. It was determined that the phonological awareness intervention was the most effective in helping SLI children to improve their phonological awareness and speech articulation ability at the level of typically developing children. In addition, imitation is another way that could help SLI children. Connell and Stone (1992) conducted a study where they taught SLI and normal developing children the comprehension and production of novel morphemes. They asked children to imitate the morphemes after they taught them. After 4 teaching sessions over two weeks, it was found that SLI children’s grammar was significantly improved through the imitation technique.…

    Volunteer Hours Reflection

    During my undergraduate studies in the field of Communication Science and Disorders, I volunteered regularly at local events and elementary schools. I have spent over two hundred hours working in conjunction with teachers, speech-language pathologists, and occupational therapists to assist in educating adults and children who experienced difficulties in the areas of speech, language, reading, writing, and math. These volunteer hours exposed me to diverse populations, various ailments, and differential diagnosis in south and central Florida. Most of my hours were geared towards working with children and adolescents who have been diagnosed with non-verbal and/or autistic disorders.…

    Front Of the class: How Tourette Syndrome made me the teacher I never had, allowed me to know about an actual child’s life growing up with Tourette’s. While reading the book I actually felt the emotions he was feeling all his life growing up. It is incredible to know all that a child can do regardless of what is happening with them. Brad the main character of the book proves that rather you have a disability or not, what matters is how you set your mind to want to do things and complete it. In the book one of Brad’s friends from B’nai B’rith Youth Organization (BBYO) said in a letter “I always refer to Brad as “me hero”, now I too can say that.
