The Specialized AVT Approach

The auditory-verbal approach is a powerful method for teaching children with hearing loss to listen and speak. It goes beyond simply teaching words and sounds — it focuses on developing the whole child. We use your child's hearing technology to help them access the sounds around them and learn to use those sounds for communication.

This approach is highly personalized and focuses on your child's unique strengths and needs. We work on developing auditory skills like detection, discrimination, identification, and comprehension.

  • Recognizing and identifying different sounds in one’s environment.

  • Differentiating between similar sounds, such as "cat" vs "hat".

  • The ability to recognize familiar sounds and words and derive meaning from them.

  • The ability to understand spoken language in more complex forms such as when engaging in conversation, following directions, and listening to orally presented stories.
