This course is filled with information about resonance! It is very good at explaining different types of resonance and velopharyngeal dysfunction. I loved the further detail into low tech tools for nasal emission. I don't have any patients currently in these areas, but I was amazed with all of the information from this one course! I definitely will be saving this and re-reading it because there is a ton of detail.

This course provided helpful information in diagnosing resonance disorders, the correct physician to refer the parent to when velopharyngeal insufficiency is suspected, and whether or not treatment is recommended. It also informed me that therapy will make compensatory articulation less intelligible if there is a an anatomical reason for the hypernasality.

This is an area in which I feel the least competent in my practice, and the information presented was so helpful! I have been questioning whether to continue working with a student with VPI on my caseload, as we have made zero progress but therapy was recommended by a more experienced clinician so I didn't want to stop. Now I feel that I have a pathway to presenting good information to the parents to point them in a more productive direction.

Treating younger children I always recommended an ENT to check for velopharyngeal dysfunction and now I will send a child to a craniofacial center to get the right diagnosis. I appreciated all the information especially the handouts of sentences to use for assessment of hyponasal or hypernasal vocal qualities.

Appreciate the "speech therapy is like playing the piano" - great quote for my parents :) Thank you for your expertise, I learned so much. I need to continue to read and review your material as I see VPI far and few between. How incredible is the amount of children you see with VPI.

I feel that many of the terms are "thrown about" with little true meaning to them. One question that came up for me while covering in a school was a child who was very hypernasal (age 3) but no" known" issues ( adopted NAS baby) but I suggested ENT (and was chastised by principal for recommending medical) perhaps a clinic as you suggested would have been a better option. Always good to gain more information. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
