Little is known that in the ranks of professional holidays there is also such as Speech Therapist Day. As a rule, they believe that these specialists work exclusively to correct the incorrect pronunciation of certain sounds.
However, correction of speech defects is only the tip of the iceberg. They work with all violations without exception: a general underdevelopment of pronunciation, its absence, various problems with voice, tempo and timbre. All kinds of speech abnormalities arising as a result of any pathologies of the human nervous system are also under their jurisdiction.
When is the holiday?
Unfortunately, even those people who know about the existence of this holiday constantly forget about when the Speech Therapist Day is celebrated in Russia. And they mark it in mid-November - the 14th. Lack of awareness, as well as underestimation of how important it is to provide speech therapy help to a child on time - this is a big problem for many parents. In order for classes with your baby to be successful, early diagnosis of various deviations in his speech is of great importance.
It's important to know
These are one of the first teachers in the life of your children, so on the speech therapist’s day it is very important to pay attention to them and remember to congratulate them. According to statistics, to our great regret, the number of speech disorders in babies is growing every year, so the urgency of correcting speech abnormalities has long assumed a global character. In this regard, every preschool institution now has a full-time speech therapist. You can contact him if your child has speech problems. Speech therapist day, these people usually celebrate in the workplace.
The process of correcting children's speech is a rather lengthy process that requires a lot of patience from parents and all loved ones, as well as the strictest discipline on the part of the child. But keep in mind that sometimes only this very, very difficult work can lead to serious positive results and further successful training. That is why these specialists are important and their holiday - Speech Therapist Day. Indeed, on how they work with your children, the whole future life of the kids is based. Remember: there are always specific people behind a good result - these are the first speech therapists for children. And despite the fact that working with kids is not so easy, they perform small and big feats every day.
Parents from early childhood should be attentive to their children, as well as to what and how they say. And at the first signs of speech lag, or other deviations, it is urgent to contact a speech therapist - this is the only way to get guaranteed help. Moreover, this will not take so much time, so do not be shy - it is better to come right away. And be sure to tell him everything that bothers you.
Conclusion
And when the International Day of speech therapist comes, I want to join in many congratulations and wish these people good health, success in their difficult work, boundless patience and family warmth.
