Made such a difference in my son's speech

(as a parent/guardian),

Hi, my son had a block of speech therapy with Alana in Armagh area. She was fantastic with him and in this session. He has come on so much with his speech his L's & R's. For most word Alana made my son do out a sentences with the word in it and it made such a difference in his speech and how to pronounce his words properly. I would definitely recommend this way of learning as I think Alana's way made it so much easier and fun for my son to pronounce lots of his letters without realizing it.

Thankyou charliecc75 for your kind words about Alana.I am delighted to hear that your son's speech sounds have come on so well. It pleases me to know that he found the block fun and that he progressed without feeling that he was working hard. This is a lovely testament to how well Alana is able to tailor her work to suit each child. Alana is our newest member of staff and I know that she will feel proud to have received such a warm Care Opinion story. Thank you for taking the time to tell us about your experience of Speech and Language Therapy on Care Opinion and I will be so pleased to share this Alana and the wider team.
