The training, guidance and homework drills you need to speed up your child's speech therapy progress. And save money doing it.
Sound familiar?
That's what inspired me to build this place.
The method
Most programs jump to words too soon. We start at the sound level and spend real time at the double-syllable level, so your child builds a solid foundation. Every step is success-based: if you're correcting your child, the level is too hard.
Get the sound right on its own, with lots of repetitions.
Focus: accuracyThe foundation. Keep accuracy high while the pace picks up.
Focus: accuracy, building speedMove up only when the earlier levels are automatic.
Focus: accuracy at full speedExample shown for the /s/ sound. The same system works for any stimulable sound.
Why it's different
Practice continues until the correct sound happens without thinking about it.
Each course can be completed in under an hour, so it fits into family life.
Your child practises at a level where they get it right, which builds confidence.
Once accuracy is solid, we build speed so the sound holds up in real conversation.
Learn to find your child's optimal practice zone: not too easy, not too hard.
Short, intense drills give your child far more correct practice in less time.

Meet your guide
I'm a Canadian speech-language pathologist. I've practised since graduating from SUNY Fredonia, an ASHA-accredited program, in 1999. Early on, I didn't like the materials available to buy, so I designed my own method. I developed the SpeechPathway and worked on Ontario's "Let's Make Sounds" program.
I believe in intense, high-repetition practice that's success-based. My goal is to make speech therapy results available to every family, and to show you how to make the most of every minute you spend practising.
