Description
This course teaches you how to correct common speech sound errors in children with dyslalia. You learn simple, structured exercises and apply them in short daily routines at home or in class. The content focuses on clear actions, not theory overload.
Created by a certified speech therapist and psychopedagogue with experience in school and therapeutic settings.
The P.E.T.A.L. method guides practice through a fixed sequence: prompt, model, repetition, feedback, consolidation. This structure helps you stay consistent and track progress.
