Every Classroom: So They Too SUCCEED!
An
informative workshop (for educators, parents and/or clinicians) of school age
students who frustrate, confuse and baffle us in their inconsistent academic
performance. Are they lazy? Why can't they work up to their
potential? What can I [teacher/parent] do to help them? To motivate
them? Workshop includes a rubric for better understanding and guidelines
to increase productivity and learning in school and/or at home! Excellent for
those who
want to maximize learning and growth in children without diagnoses, or with

Problem Solving: How to Get Unstuck When A Case Seems to "Hit a Wall."
Some
children progress with expected outcomes, while others can be challenging and
outright frustrating. This seminar presents an approach to solving problems

better understand the relevant dynamics which leads
to better intervention and successful outcomes. [Relevant to preschool and
school-age therapy with children with varying communication issues – Autistic
Spectrum Disorders (ASD), Phonological Disorders, Oro-Motor
issues, Asperger’s Syndrome, High-Functionin
