I really loved the Presenter's enthusiasm! She was so motivated about using narrative interventions (using the Multi-Modal Cueing Approach with a Most to Least Prompting Hierarchy to improve all areas of Speech and Language skills with all children who have different Speech/Language disabilities)! I loved how she introduced a new, effective way of doing Speech Therapy- being present with the child; looking at the "Big Picture", treating the Whole Child, not just individual skills! Excellent!

I love how she illustrated that working on one area of weakness, like plural -s, will only improve that one area, but if you work on narrative skills, it covers multiple language areas. I also love her enthusiasm and how she connected everything to research. She was an awesome presenter! I'm excited for part 2.
