Tutors for Communication Difficulties
Through personalised attention and tailored instruction, tutors empower children to enhance their communication skills at their own pace.
Understanding Communication Difficulties
Communication difficulties in children can be caused by a variety of disorders. The most common communication disorders in children are:
- Language disorders: problems understanding and/or using spoken words or sentences to exchange ideas.
- Speech disorders: problems making and combining sounds in words.
- Stuttering: a speech disorder that makes it hard for children to speak smoothly.
- Voice problems: hoarseness, breathiness, harshness or a voice that’s too high/low or too loud/weak.
A child with a communication disorder may have trouble communicating with others, and may not speak at all or have trouble expressing words. A speech-language pathologist often treats communication disorders in children
