I had the pleasure of being a guest on the SLP Corner podcast, and the episode is out now! I talked about my personal journey learning how to read, the roles of Speech-Language Pathologists in literacy, structured literacy instruction, and literacy activity ideas for 5 components of literacy.

I am so passionate about literacy, and I loved having the opportunity to share my knowledge with others! I hope you listen to the podcast episode and learn something new about literacy.

Update: In 2024, I was a invited back on the SLP Corner podcast, and that newer episode is also available now - 137. Literacy Approaches, Print-to-Speech versus Print-to-Speech & Strategies for Beginner Readers
