• Pragmatic Language
    Pragmatics refers to a child’s ability to use language in context in real life situations. Pragmatics may sometimes be referred to as a child’s social skills.
  • Age of diagnosis
    More than one study has indicated that the older the child at time of diagnosis, the less positive the outcome. Therefore earlier identification and treatment of a language delay is essential, as therapy outcomes are better.
  • Receptive language
    Receptive language refers to the ability to listen, hear and understand verbal and visual information. It includes understanding stories, following instructions and interpreting visual signs.
  • Down Syndrome
    Down syndrome is a specific chromosomal disorder resulting from the presence of an extra chromosome. Chromosomes contain genetic information people need to grow and develop.
  • Autism
