Welcome
Mission
Speech is language and language is speech. Speech-Language Pathologists have been leaders in spoken and written language for decades. Competent speaking, reading, and writing skills are the foundation for critical thinking. Every person is a unique learner. Speech-language intervention is the pathway for establishing areas of need to be addressed and then, the necessary foundation skills to speak, read and write. Together we develop these skills for critical thinking. By cultivating literacy and critical thinking, a person gains access to what the world has to offer and improves their opportunities for lifelong success and personal fulfilment.
Facts
In early childhood, children with phonological problems are often slow to develop speech and language
A child may make multiple speech errors and have problems with word-finding, grammatical forms and following the ‘flow’ of conversation
Reading and writing difficulties occur when a child demonstrates phonological difficulties
Related issues can be present, such as learning to decode print and reading (language) comprehension problems
These problems are not related to intelligence but to differences in how our brains process linguistic information
“Having taught lower elementary children in an inner-city school for a number of years, I know first-hand, the need for quality speech acquisition therapy that Nancy Steinbock provides. It is imperative for students to learn the fundamentals of speech-language and reading. These skills and knowledge serve as the building blocks for later academic endeavors and significantly contribute to the individual’s success in all areas of life.
The positive impact that Nancy Steinbock’s intervention can have on a child cannot be overstated. Nancy is extremely knowledgeable and qualified. She is able to communicate effectively with the children, enabling them to work toward reaching their full potential. In addition, Nancy works tirelessly to ensure that her time with the children is not only educational, but also fun and enjoyable.
For these reasons, I would highly recommend Nancy Steinbock to any family looking to support their child’s need for quality speech-language acquisition therapy.
