September 5, 2022 – Since March 2020, families and educators across the nation have been navigating how to manage distance learning and closures of their much-needed special education services, including speech therapy. It’s been a struggle for both families and educators as they navigate how and if to even provide telepractice services with the same quality as in-person. But Linguabilities has been traveling this road since 2017.
Telepractice is essentially an online delivery model of the same special education services you’d get in-person at a school, such as speech therapy, psychological assessments, or special education teaching. The issue that both families and educators have run into is that educators inexperienced in this modality don’t know how to make the service delivery work for their students in a functional way. This can range from technology difficulties to just not having the resources for a fun, engaging session online. The result is that families and school districts are left feeling like telepractice isn’t a good fit for their needs.
The truth is that telepractice can be just as effective, if not more so, for families and districts seeking special education. The key is having a educator who is experienced in telepractice and knows how to engage students remotely, streamline the technology used, and connect with parents and school staff in a meaningful way to carry-over skills learned in sessions.
Linguabilities is an online therapy company specializing in telepractice. Even before the COVID pandemic hit, they saw the need for high-quality online special education for families of children with specific learning needs. And they accomplish this through ongoing training for their educators, the latest technologies that make accessing education easier, and tons of digital resources to make learning fun, functional, and engaging for their students.
