The complexity of speech and language disorders can be daunting in
a monolingual context. When working with a bilingual child
assessment and intervention may appear to be even more complicated.
In this book Sean Pert provides the reader with the tools needed to
overcome this perception and develop skills in working in a
language that they don't share with the client. By adopting a home
language first approach the book discusses how to: identify
diversity from disorder introduce effective approaches in line with
the best clinical practice work successfully alongside interpreters
make assessments and plan interventions set goals for therapy. At
the heart of the text is the therapist creating essential
partnerships with parents and truly valuing the bilingualism,
culture and identity of the child. This leads to better outcomes,
not only in speech, language and communication, but also in
self-esteem, mental health, social participation and educational
and employment success. The book concludes with a handy toolkit of
resources including quizzes, case studies and printable extras
making it the perfect resource for both experienced and newly
qualified practitioners with bilingual and multilingual children in
their care.
