Tutoring & SCHOOL-BASED THERAPY

Spring Into Speech is proud to offer academic tutoring from licensed educators and special educators.

Spring Into Speech is a private practice that offers speech and language therapy services to area public school systems, daycares, preschools, and private schools in MD. 

Spring Into Speech believes that educationally-based therapy improves students’ functional skills in the school setting, which in turn creates a more successful learning environment. School-based services allow our speech therapists to collaborate with teachers, parents, and other school leaders to help students achieve success. Spring Into Speech therapists have extensive experience with Autism Spectrum Disorder, articulation disorders, Childhood Apraxia of Speech, auditory processing, language delays, speech-language impairments, and assistive technology (AT) devices.

Because we are a local, privately-owned practice, we have deep relationships and connections within the local communities and school systems. We believe in fostering relationships with parents, teachers, and students to help achieve success. 

EVALUATIONS

Spring Into Speech offers comprehensive evaluations that are conducted in the child's home. An evaluation assesses receptive & expressive language, speech, and oral motor skills. After the assessment is completed you will be given a report documenting the findings, recommendations and sample speech and language goals, if appropriate. 

Social Skills Groups

Spring Into Speech offers social skills groups co-led by a speech-language pathologist and a licensed special educator. Teaching social skills and providing strategies for connection are crucial for helping kids build meaningful relationships, navigate social challenges and confidence in their interactions. We are currently enrolling groups in Howard and Montgomery County. These 7-week sessions are grouped based on age and skills.

COLLABORATIVE APPROACH

We believe in a collaborative approach and feels as though working together is key. We are more than willing to collaborate with professionals (e.g., other therapists, school, etc.) to help your child be successful in all environments. Parent collaboration is important as well, especially at early ages. 

TEAM & IEP MEETINGS

Our team is willing to partake in meetings at your child’s school. We have a thorough understanding of the Maryland public school special education system and Individualized Education Plan (IEP) process. We can serve as an advocate for your child and help them get the services they need and deserve in order to be successful. We are also available for home and school based conferences.
