Receptive language difficulties
Receptive language pertains to your child's comprehension of language, encompassing not only spoken words but also non-verbal forms like written and sign language.
Who might benefit from speech therapy targeting receptive language:
- A child having trouble understanding and following instructions.
- A child struggling with answering 'WH' questions (who, what, when, where, why, and how).
- A child facing challenges in grasping age-appropriate vocabulary.
A speech-language pathologist can conduct a thorough evaluation to assess whether a child exhibits signs of receptive language difficulties. Based on the evaluation findings, the clinician can recommend ongoing therapy to address the child's unique needs and enhance their receptive language skills.
