Did You Know?

The Larynx or "Voice Box" houses your vocal folds? The vocal folds are located just above the trachea, which travels from the lungs. Usually the length and width of the vocal folds determines your voice pitch. Additionally, genetics also causes variances among sexes regarding how high or low your voice is.

Stuttering

Some speaking situations cause stuttering to increase more than others. Talking on the phone, speaking to an authority figure, meeting new people, speaking to larger audiences are considered in some cases as dysfluency inducing situations.

Did you know?.....
	Phonologicial Processes are a child's simplification of an adult form of a word. For example "rope" may be pronounced as "wope" simply because it's just TOO hard to say! This phonological process is known as Gliding.

Articulation Difficulties
	R, S, and L sounds are commonly mispronounced by most children between the ages of 2-5. These sounds are some the hardest to produce in our English language.
