My Students

Imagine if you had difficulty understanding your teacher as she read an exciting new book during circle time?! Imagine if you couldn't tell someone how you felt or what new, fun idea you had?! Well, these are real problems that my students experience everyday!

I am a Speech Language Pathologist, and I work in a New York City public school in Forest Hills, Queens.

My students all have a passion and eagerness to learn- academically, socially, and emotionally. Ranging in age from 4 to 12 years old, my students are placed in Self-contained Special Education and Integrated Co-Teaching classes. Each of my students has the desire to showcase the vivid ideas they have in their imagination, but struggle to do so due to difficulties processing, understanding, formulating and using language required in their classroom and home environments. These speech and language difficulties are associated with diagnoses of Autism, Childhood Apraxia of Speech, Learning Disabilities, and Intellectual Disabilities.

My Project

I strongly believe that the first step in helping a child reach their maximum potential is to have a complete picture of the child and their abilities. Assessment tools, such as the Hodson Assessment of Phonological Patterns and the Test for Auditory Comprehension of Language, are crucial in generating this picture, as they allow us to see the students' strengths as well as areas needing additional support.

Please support this project and help me accurately assess the students in my school in order to identify areas of concern to target in Speech and Language Therapy and allow them to reach for the stars!!!!

My students and I would greatly appreciate it!
