  • 150. 10 Must-Learn Gestalts for Gestalt Language Processors
    Nov 21 2024

    Gestalt language learners tend to learn language initially as whole chunks and break them into individual parts over time. How can we capitalize on a gestalt learning style? Emphasize sentences that will provide great social and practical coverage. In this episode, I'm sharing my top ten gestalts to emphasize for early gestalt language processors.

  • 147. You Are Not Improving Language Comprehension Unless You Are Doing THIS
    Nov 7 2024

    Meta-analytic research indicates that speech-language therapists do not improve language comprehension for students with developmental language disorders. However, multiple studies have indicated that explicit narrative, story-retelling interventions can produce robust gains in language comprehension and expression.

Her Love Comes Through

Kelly Vess's work was first introduced to me by my SIL who is an SLP. I am a parent of (currently) young children. Kelly's book was incredibly informative and the corresponding video content that it came with gave real, easy to understand and easy to implement techniques that exceed almost every parenting book I have ever read. Even though I am not an SLP and cannot understand all of the professional content, her work has benefited me greatly already. Her research benefits professional therapists and parents alike!

The love and excitement that she has for her research and the children she is helping comes through in her voice. I highly recommend reading her book and adding her podcast to that content. It is so good and I am so well informed!
