@@masculineworld354 Thanks, I'd be happy to share insights on these. For reference, where are you writing from?

@@oaaosgenesis you're so welcome, remember it will take time to shape into all words and positions of the words. With time and practice you will master this new sound 🙌

@@KennedyDevitt-e8r sounds like some backing sounds there but also other typical processes such as assimilation. Typical speech therapy for sounds starts around 3 years anyway so you'll see some changes over the next few months.

@@GrowandTellSpeechandOT thank you so much! I’ve been worrying myself with it. So could this be something she grows out of?

@@KennedyDevitt-e8r she is likely to start using t and d sounds before the age of 3 :) Great news is she already has the back sounds which are usually harder.

@@GrowandTellSpeechandOT thank you so much that is so reassuring to hear I appreciate your help 😊

I am 20

@@Heloobehappy keep practising and you'll speak well 👏

@@masculineworld354 thank you 😊 🙏 💓

@@anonyme0209 you're most welcome 🙏 glad to hear you're regaining your confidence and participating in class and socialising.

@@user-rk4ct8vi7n glad to hear it's been helping you. I'm perplexed as the k sound is made at the back of the tongue (not the front or sides (where a lisp can take place). I'm putting together an online e short course to help people, would that be something you'd be interested in?

@@GrowandTellSpeechandOT yeah it’s almost as if the gushy sound comes from the back of my mouth unlike a frontal lisp where it’s coming from the tongue sticking out the teeth, it’s more so the S and X sound that’s hard to pronounce and yes I would be interested in the course!

@@user-rk4ct8vi7n it sounds like a lateral lisp on the affricates which can also take place. This can also be shaped so air stops escaping through the sides (the gushy/slushy sound). I'm thinking of the videos on a private TH-cam account 🤔 will keep you posted

@@RossParkerHolidays thank you 😊 🙏

@@CryptoNinja38 it's a step by step process, if you Compare learning how to play the piano... you need practice every day to create the motor pattern and muscle memory to be able subconsciously make those sounds automatically 👌 I'm making a short course if you're interested

And how do I learn to make my new perfect s sound to my habit?

@@Analysis_Paralysis 100% agree, with communication comes confidence and independence... many parents say, now they're using their voice to challenge me! It's all part of growing up and having autonomy. And lucky for parents, children move forward from 'no' and are happy to be heard and included in the decisions :)

@@Analysis_Paralysis short sentences and phrases and have knowledge of some concepts I.e wet/dry, big/small etc.. and answer basic what, where, who questions. Ask "where daddy?" And use verbs even if incorred tense I.e I goed outside

@@ivanmitrovic2633 yes of course, what is your first language?

@@Is_brea_liom_tae go with what works, and videoing can always come later once rapport is there. Filming someone their first or second session screams "lets see what you're doing wrong here. On video."... 💀

@@Kruziik we receive many requests from help from parents of children, and even adults themselves, who are unable to make this sound 🙌 Good for you, it sounds like you've nailed it 🙏

@@GrowandTellSpeechandOT Oh I see, thank you for explaining. English is my 2nd language

@@Kruziik you're welcome. ✅️🙌

@@jacksonamaral329 👍😀

@@NekirWsgngr Glad you found it helpful. 🙌

❤️🥰 Thats lovely to hear, thank you. I guess Every parent does the best with the tools they have. Simple, I know. I'm grateful to the hundreds of families over the decades who helped me become a better person and mum (Aussie spelling) 🙏

@@GrowandTellSpeechandOT your kids are super lucky.

Just like me wishing Bob Ross as my dad!

@@Grandmaster__Gee he looked like a kind and wonderful man. Mrs Rogers from Mr Rogers Neighbourhood seemed similar

There are some other ways that can shape the air flow. I'm in the process of putting more content together

@@GrowandTellSpeechandOT ok thanks

@@GrowandTellSpeechandOT ok thanks

@@svmii_gp no worries 👍

Agree, a big smile, lips not rounded

I hope you find a method that helps you 🙂

Have you tried the above exercise. What did you notice? Are you able to move your tongue to make a single s. There's another technique in case air is still coming out the sides of your mouth/side of tongue. There's several steps to take and it takes time.

If you wish to make a booking via a telehealth contact www.growandtelltherapy.com.au

I'm.creatung a short course for adults, it will be on www.growandtelltherapy.com.au

You're so welcome, I'm glad to hear it has helped you, best wishes

It depends if the strong s sound is due to lots of air, too much pressure, or tongue placement. I consult online via telehealth with a booking available through www.growandtelltherapy.com.au

Yes there is. Have you been to a Speech pathologist? I'm creating a short set of videos to accompany homework practice and the steps it takes to shape a lisp to a clear s

I'm creating a short course to help others such as yourself 👍

Try making the T sound while the tip of your tongue presses up against the back of your lower front teeth, it’ll be impossible but you’ll make a kind of S sound. Then you work on refining it.

So glad to hear it's clicking. The simple things make big changes

Thanks for sharing, yes most certainly can shape the way your tongue and airflow are creating the S sound in words. It does take time and small steps, however very achievable. See how you go with a referral. If you get stuck you can book online with me www.growandtelltherapy.com.au

@@GrowandTellSpeechandOT Thank you so much💓

Can't wait to hear how you go!

How is it?

Currently doing the exercise everyday. The "thh" sound definitely sounds better than my lateral lisp, but I have a hard time forming words and sentences. It sounds very forced and especially words that end with an "s" kind of fall flat. However, practice makes perfect so I keep trying

@@OasisMilo would it be helpful if I did a short course on the steps to correct a lateral lisp?

@@GrowandTellSpeechandOT that would be incredible!

Paediatrician ruled out any seizures or concerns. Our son has since done a sleep study and confirmed no other issues. Funnily enough he was diagnosed with reflux, and although shudders are unexplained, I often wondered was he having reflux when he had the shudders... but it's never been mentioned as a symptom of reflux... take videos and show your Dr. Also ours did them when he was tired

You can so it. Then add a sound after it ...tsssssa tssssse tsssssi etc...

My neighbor's daughter did this at the same age. One day she just said "hey did you know you've stopped pronouncing your s sound?" And almost immediately that fixed the problem. No idea if that will help you but that did it for her!

You're most welcome, I'm glad it helped 🙏

Do you mean your sounds collapse and it's hard for someone to hear what you're saying? Or you try and put the words together but can't find the right words?

@@GrowandTellSpeechandOT honestly when i listen to my vns i notice that i have a lisp when i speak quickly, like ppl don't rlly notice it but i do

Have a look at my free download at growandtelltherapy.com.au under free milestone download. Don't worry I don't send spam. It is definitely worth getting some support to help with his expressive language. It will likely reduce frustrations (if there are any) as well as indicate some key strategies which are research based to encourage the talking/words/signing

So glad to hear that this helped 🙌

The next step is not sentences, it's words only

@@GrowandTellSpeechandOTok thank you

Does your tongue come out when you say 's'? Have you access to a Speech pathologist? You're lucky as you're old enough to practice independently once you have the right strategies

Sorry to hear, you deserve better. ❤️ If it doesnt bother you, you do you there's nothing "wrong " with a lisp many people have them and it's 100% okay

Sadly we all have experienced this or know someone who has. It's hard to find a great therapist and when you do it's a wonder why this research-based method isn't made readily available to those who need it. Sorry you went through this experience. I hope you find an amazing therapist with effective strategies
