There was a lot of very important information. She is very knowledgeable and was well versed in her topic. I enjoyed the times she referred to her own experiences. Too much information may have been covered in the allotted time frame as I felt some times she spoke very quickly and felt pressed for time. I also feel there could be another course that would address application of the information presented.

I love the way this presenter shared from her personal experience as a second language learner. She has a wonderful voice - I'm glad she has given up working on her "accent," as I feel it is barely recognizable. It is lovely.

While I enjoyed the presenter's providing real case studies of clients who fall into specific types of bilingualism, I wish she sped through the information on models of bilingual acquisition. It would have been better if she focused on providing information on atypical bilingualism.

I think this area regarding bilingual language development is SO important in the field of speech language pathology. As a SLP in California, I regularly interact with clients that speak L1 in their home environment. This lecture by Murray will direct my every day interactions as I communicate with clients and parents about Dual language development. Thank you!
