“We miss your virtual speech sessions! They were so fun and very interactive. [My son] didn't like using the speech tablet for home at first. Now he uses the tablet at home… You've also shown me how to use it while we read our books at home. I feel more confident teaching him new words. Thank you so much for all your help. It will never be forgotten!”
