Definitely as an older SLP I had been taught that echolalic speech was not a part of a normal developmental pattern for speech. I liked the examples of mitigation developing into more complex communication." S.W. (Mar. 2024)

"Watching the videos and being able to read the transcript and then seeing which stage each utterance falls into. I loved seeing the videos and taking the child's regulations into consideration. I had not considered how important physical movement could be to regulation and communication." C.V. (Mar. 2024)

"The different ways kids learn their language was helpful to discuss. The course kept my interest." K.B. (Mar. 2024)

"It is so important that our kids are understood and this course gives me greater confidence to more fluidly explain NLA and GLPs. The videos, transcripts, and explanations were priceless. Definitely going to rewatch these sections. There are many students at my school who are GLP, and they are often misunderstood by teachers, especially the older elementary and middle school students. My SLP team is currently providing training for our teaching staff and advocacy for these students." S.P. (Jan. 2024)

"The discussion that Mitigation of Gestalts and GLP is part of NLA and ASD has delayed language not disordered. I liked the videos and transcripts - description of stages and how to mitigate at stages 2-3." G.L. (Jan. 2024)

"The process and stages that a student can go through and still make progress were helpful to discuss. I liked the examples." J.M. (Jan. 2024)

"The videos with accompanying language sample and discussion were beneficial." M.J. (Jan. 2024)

"The assessment portion was useful for helping me identify kids who are moving out of one stage and into another. Also, helping to identify 'where they were and where they are going' helps me provide strategies that provide the appropriate language and sensory motor support. I liked the videos, the clear outline, and the examples that included the parent as my primary services occur in the home with parents and primary caretakers." K.M. (Jan. 2024)

"Information regarding the stages was helpful. I liked that the video clips support the information." R.R. (Dec. 2023)

"This course was a wonderful continuation in learning about gestalt language processors. If you are an SLP treating neuro-divergent clients, this is a must-take course to support their learning style just as much as our traditional analytic language learners." C.W. (Dec. 2023)

"Presenter was quite interesting! It was nice to see videos of her therapy!" D.H. (Dec. 2023)

"Application to practice. I liked the example videos of therapy sessions." M.L. (Dec. 2023)

"I liked the treatment contexts and activities. And real life scenarios." N.B. (Dec. 2023)

"Learning how to take a child's utterances and break them down to use in combination (1 - 2 word utterances) appropriately in structured tasks was beneficial." R.H. (Dec. 2023)

"Case study videos were helpful. Beneficial comparison to play-based analytic language learners when it comes to treatment." J.M. (Nov. 2023)

"I think taking more time to provide a thorough assessment by evaluating different communicative contexts will improve my clinical skills." G.H. (Nov. 2023)

"The explanations about observing more than one stage in a language sample were helpful. I enjoyed the video models with the explanation that followed." D.I. (Nov. 2023)

"I liked all of the videos in this section. I often use sensorimotor aspects in therapy with my kiddos, not just on the spectrum but in general. I feel like a lot of parents like the tabletop approach because "they need to learn for school," but there is so much to be said for learning in a "fun environment" that fits each kiddo. This is good confirmation and reasoning for why I will continue." C.G. (Nov. 2023)

"Both NLA level 1 and 2 are very informative. I like that everything comes from the author herself with lots of evidence." D.J. (Nov. 2023)

"I liked the many examples provided. I found relief in knowing that my play-based, child-centric sessions look as they should look. I often stress now that I work so closely with parents (who are uneducated about NLP) that they want immediate growth and structured activities." D.D. (Nov. 2023)

"The targets for instruction specific to the level were helpful. I liked being able to see the work in progress on video." K.B. (Nov. 2023)

"I liked all of it. Course repeats the information and explains it very well. This has been very helpful for me." K.A. (Aug. 2023)

"I found having treatment child-centered continues to be most beneficial. When providing an adult model a child centered approach allows the therapist or adult model to provide spontaneous assistance. I liked that this level 2 course went into greater detail in regards to treatment and the videos gave great examples of how a session could possibly go." E.B. (Aug. 2023)

"How to break down a child's gestalts so that they can be mitigated into developing and progressing their language was helpful. I liked the ability to stop and review concepts so that I had a full understanding." J.V. (Aug. 2023)

"A child's regulation is important to interaction and communication at their level. Learning that stage 2 can look like stage 4, and children may sometimes revert back to stage 2 at stage 4." E.I. (Aug. 2023)

"The overall topic was important for me to learn. It's an important topic that was not enough of a focus in my graduate education." S.G. (Aug. 2023)

"Learning that any time, any stage, it's possible to be triggered back to early stage 1/2 gestalts. However, we have to be aware that the use of the early gestalts may have nothing to do with the "original" meaning. It may be simply a place to jump off from into different meaning. So, if we over-analyze those early scripts and gestalts and assume a student is using them for what the media initially conveyed or what they themselves initially used it for, we may miss the current present meaning and usage, and we are not following the student's lead. So interesting!" L.F. (Aug. 2023)

"I liked the treatment ideas, especially using the child's interest and the child's words most used." M.B. (Aug. 2023)

"The videos were helpful to see how you're using the strategies presented. I liked the videos, treatment ideas, suggestions for providing feedback and talking with parents/team." E.D. (Aug. 2023)

"I absolutely appreciated the design and content of this course. Learning about treatment contexts, activities, and planning was most beneficial. Watching a session in action from multiple perspectives clarified the multifaceted nature of the role of an SLP in NLA intervention. Watching the kids express their feelings, state preferences, and lead interactions at a seemingly "pre-mature" linguistic stage makes my heart full." M.K. (Jul. 2023)

"I really enjoyed the whole discussion. This material helped me to gain better insight into some of the children on my caseload. I liked the info regarding moving from echolalia to self-generated grammar. Videos are always useful in showing how techniques are effective in a natural manner." A.R. (Jul. 2023)

"Understanding how to practically implement techniques that support natural language acquisition. Seeing that therapy for natural language acquisition doesn't look very different from the play therapy we already implement, it's just the target words that change." R.M. (Jul. 2023)

"Understanding the stages and the movement between stages was beneficial. I liked the video examples." B.H. (Jul. 2023)

"The idea of meeting the kids where they are and the importance of self regulation was beneficial. I had a student this year who was very similar to the child in the video. She did not like people in her space, and constantly licked items. She would elope away from others. Her lack of regulation was not conducive to accessing her linguistics and language areas. I liked the video examples and their explanations." M.L. (Jun. 2023)

"I enjoyed learning about the other language goals that occur during treatment, such as social interaction. I liked the use of various video examples and inclusion of transcripts from real therapy sessions." G.M. (Jun. 2023)

"I liked the explanation of how children go back and forth between stages and how all of the language in a particular sample may not be all in the same stage. It seems obvious now, but I had not thought of it that way when I took the Level 1 Course. The handouts were very helpful to organize and preview the information before I listened to the course." L.K. (Jun. 2023)

"Mitigation of core words and choosing the most salient language was beneficial. I liked the examples and videos." A.T. (Jun. 2023)
