CID BLOG FOR PROFESSIONALS
Welcome to our blog dedicated to you, the professional supporting a child with hearing loss. Here you will find a wealth of informative listening and spoken language topics, along with recommendations you can apply to your students. Whether you’re a speech-language pathologist, teacher of the deaf, early interventionist or audiologist, or if you simply have a professional interest in supporting children who are deaf and hard of hearing, you’ve come to the right place for insights you can apply in your own setting.
Do you have a topic you would like us to consider? Or are you interested in being a guest blogger? We’d love to hear from you!
