The first time I realized I was different was in second grade, when I opened my mouth to answer a question and my peers giggled as I struggled to answer. I pronounced my R's like W's, which threw my whole pronunciation of the English language into a twist. My previously "adorable" lapses in speech were now affecting me negatively. I was different than the rest of my classmates; I had been born with a speech disorder.

Explain how positive changes to the communication environment can support communication development for children and young people with behavioural, emotional and social difficulties.
The level of a child’s communication skills can have an effect on most areas of development. If a child is struggling with communication and language they
Speech, language and communication difficulties can have a profound and lasting effect on children’s lives and development. These can affect their ability to communicate and interact with others. The impact of these difficulties will vary depending on the severity of the problems, the support they receive, the demands of the child’s environment
Communication is a two way process which allows us to express our thoughts and feelings to others, while allowing us in turn to understand what others are trying to convey to us. Communication involves speech and language (verbal) as well as facial expression, gesture and body language (non-verbal). Communication is an essential life skill for children and young people and it underpins their social, emotional and educational development. (Bercow 2008)
I don’t have an “ah-ha!” moment or a specific experience that pinpoints what piqued my interest in speech-language pathology. After years of working successfully in the field of insurance and healthcare management consulting, I could not deny my desire to be part of a discipline more directly involved in counseling or patient care. That aim set me on a journey to determine how I could best serve in this capacity and ultimately led me to a decision to change careers. I researched, I interviewed people in a variety of fields, and I examined my own values and motivations.
Communication is very crucial in life, especially in education. Whether it be delivering a message or receiving information, without the ability to communicate learning can be extremely difficult. Students with speech and language disorders may have “trouble producing speech sounds, using spoken language to communicate, or understanding what other people say” (Turkington, p10, 2003) Each of these problems can create major setbacks in the classroom. Articulation, expression and reception are all essential components for communication. If a student has an issue with articulation, they most likely then have difficulty speaking clearly and at a normal rate (Turkington, 2003). When they produce words, they
In my experience, communication disorders may be viewed differently depending on the age of the person with the communication disorder. For instance, a young child with an articulation disorder tends to be viewed as “cute” and “adorable” by adults. On the other hand, older children with articulation disorders tend to be viewed very negatively because they are looked at as “too old” to be speaking in this manner. Older children with articulation disorders are also more likely to encounter bullying while in school as opposed to children without a communication disorder. Therefore, parents may not seek treatment for their young child with an articulation disorder because they do not see anything wrong with it if everyone views it positively. However, parents of older children would be more likely to seek treatment because it may be looked at as embarrassing for the parents and the older child with the articulation disorder.
Andres was diagnosed with autism when he was two years old, he is now thirteen years old. He is loved by his family and we are totally devoted to him. Andres presents the following conditions which require a 24 hours supervision.

How often do purpose, passion, and profession come together? Pursing an advanced degree in Speech Language Pathology would consummate my plans of positively impacting the lives of others throughout the world. I have encountered many personal influences that have shaped my perspective; these influences have also driven me to perform excellence on a graduate level. In my profession, my aspiration is to improve the quality of someone’s life.
“What, what did you say?” I often find myself saying this when talking with children. The likely culprit of why is poor listening habits. “Most people spend mere time listening than they spend on any other communication activity, yet a large percentage of people never learn to listen well.” (TLSC, 2008) The above example is what I like to call “pseudo listening.” People will be thinking about something else but appear to be listening and only get about half the intended message. Recently at my father’s (Ron) company because of a pseudo listening instance a $400,000 dollar piece of equipment did not get specked correctly. When it was delivered to the customer at Company B the blast doors did not fit properly on the dryer unit. As one
Assessment of communication disorder is based on history and physical examination, articulation test, hearing test, auditory test, phonological awareness and processing, vocabulary/ language development test, assessment of
In this essay I will demonstrate to families who lack a good foundation of communication that developing healthy communication skills can lead to building closer relationships and solving mental health issues.
