About the ONLINE program:

Initial Evaluation:

  • To get started, you will be sent a link to the initial evaluation. There, you will fill out the question section and record yourself on your own computer. You will need internet connection, a quiet space, and a microphone (built-in or external) to complete your recording.
  • Once you submit, your instructor will complete an in-depth analysis of your recording. She will then design an individualized program based on which sounds and sound patterns that need to be worked on in order to reduce your accent and/or improve how much of your message is understood. The program will address voice projection, intonation, and standard American English pronunciation.

Expected Outcome:
Clients who attend every session and complete practice as instructed (approximately one hour a day) are expected to reduce their accent by at least 50%.

Materials:
You will need internet connection, a quiet space, and a microphone (built-in or external). You will receive access to an online practice lab to complete weekly assignments.

We LOVE DV Therapy Palmdale! My son has Autism and gets Speech. He was getting Occupational Therapy services and has since graduated with the help of Ms.Alyah! Ever since he started there has been a HUGE improvement in his speech and fine motor skills. My child loves going to his therapies here and gets excited when he sees his therapists! It’s such a nice feeling knowing he likes the people there and wants to go back week after week. The staff here are very professional and you can see that they really care about your child. Ms.Amber is great and really takes in mind what my child interests are and turns it into speech opportunities! We are so grateful for all the amazing support from DV Therapy Palmdale!
