If
your child is struggling with language in
school, it is important that he or she receive
help. Difficulty with language skills often
translates into specific weaknesses that make
learning to read a hard task. For children who
struggle in these areas, our speech-language
pathologist can help to foster success.

Children that
struggle with language in pre-school may fall behind their

child,
as pre-schoolers with language problems are at risk for
learning difficulties later on.
