  1. Building language on my child was a bit scary because I didn’t know what to do. This course helped me with that fundamental information on how language can be built and keep focusing on pre-talking and communication skills. I love my child went from a grunting sound to imitate gestures and sounds. I am thankful to this course because it guided me to have his language almost caught up for his age.

  2. Hello,Thank you,

    Improve potty training,
    Talking/ language/following direction imitation
    Problem behavior
    Dressing practice for sweater
    Social play skill.
    improve attention ability by sensory training at home.

    1. This is a really great start and how we want to do the plan. Adding “start table time ” may also be helpful (you’ll learn more about this) .

      Your plan will likely develop as you learn more , but for now, making sure you have the strengths, needs and a broad plan is great!

  3. Wow this was amazing. I couldn’t believe how many mistakes a made and how many mistakes I heard from people who work with the children I have.

    1. We discuss this in multiple modules in the full online course. You can email us at [email protected] for information on this course.
      The first step to teaching these skills is to make sure imitation skills, both motor and object imitation is strong. Turn taking first takes a lot of pairing with a peer and to be comfortable playing with the same items, with no sharing calmly and without problem behavior.

  4. Hi I am wondering if we can use the 1 word times three for vowel soundsor very short syllables? For example could we use the ca sound for candy?

  5. Hi,
    The course is opening my eyes to new ideas and the mistakes I have made so far and what to avoid,the journey seems daunting but I am sure I can make great progress for my little boy.

      You are in the right place! We only do what we know and now you are here learning more and for that your child is so lucky! you got this!

  6. Hi,
    I just realized this is where homework goes!
    I have made mistakes 2 and 5, and I am sure the others throughout my career. I plan to be more aware of what and how I am teaching/working with a child. I will use more “child’s name turn” and “Mommy’s turn” but reduce the frequency. I will stop using carrier phrases.

  7. I have made mistakes #1,3,4 and 5. I’m a grandparent and very new to this. Hopefully I can help my grandson. He has 12 words that he currently uses to label and fill in the blanks. During his 10 minute session, I recorded 8 words and one sound like uh huh. I was reading books to him and he filled in the blanks while looking at the pictures. He has used other words in the past but has now stopped using them. My goals are to focus on imitation, receptive language, functional words, and self-care skills. He asked for his “ba-ba” for bottle and that’s the only request that he makes with words. He still gets his bottle for naps and at night. I now realize the importance of getting him off the bottle but also to reinforce the mand immediately. How should I handle this situation? I have bought the courses and hope to learn more strategies to help turn him around. He is on the waiting list to be evaluated. The list is 18 to 24 months long.
