Speech Science Course

What will I learn?

Open up better ways of doing speech therapy with our detailed Speech Science Lessons. Go deep into understanding problems people have with talking, like dysarthria (when it's hard to control the muscles for speech), apraxia (when the brain struggles to plan speech), and stuttering (when speech gets blocked or repeated). Become good at creating therapy plans that work well, from deciding what you want to achieve to checking how things are going. Learn about the science behind how we make speech, and get better at writing and sharing reports. Look into different ways of helping people and how to do research, so you can become an expert and give really good therapy. Join us to make your work life better!
