Excellent information. However, the presenter too often relied on (advertised?) an expensive packaged product sold by his wife's company when discussing actual implementation of the strategies. Implementing strategies without using materials from a $298 product would have been more helpful and in my opinion ethical.

Excellent and practical strategies to use with younger children during small-group activities. I also appreciated the hierarchy of individualized sessions and using small-group sessions to 'put it all together.' I also appreciated the reminder that it is beneficial for younger children to repeat models to improve language/grammar and answer questions.

Too much time spent on introductory material which left insufficient time to share specific examples of the strategies.The narrative therapy was vaguely described. My impression was that this because the presenter was talking about a specific narrative intervention product available for purchase.

I really loved this course. It reinforced what I’m already doing in therapy and gave me some things to think about to assist students who have difficulty with retell. I loved the easy to understand principles and the applicability of them as well. Videos were great to really get a visual as to how this looks. I was also happy to see that using the Story Champ techniques as well as just practicing retelling showed similar outcomes in the study mentioned. I think things mentioned here can certainly be used in therapy. I also loved how we can start at the basic, foundational level and then add more complex levels (i.e. more advanced vocabulary, use of complex language)
