šŸ—£ļø How do we actually produce speech sounds?

Have you ever wondered how we make the sounds we use every day? Or why some children find certain sounds trickier than others?

I’m thinking about running a parent-friendly training session all about:

• How speech sounds are produced
• Common speech sound errors in children
• How speech development links to phonics and early literacy

I’d love to know if this is something you’d find helpful.

I’ll be drawing on my specialist doctorate-level training in phonetics and speech sound disorders, as well as my experience teaching phonetics in the UK and internationally.

Understanding how sounds are made can empower you to:

• Support your child’s phonics learning
• Build on early literacy skills like phonological awareness
• Feel more confident supporting your child at home, especially if they’re currently receiving, or waiting for, speech therapy.

If this sounds useful, let me know you’re interested!

Friday Treats šŸŖāœØ

We kicked off the week with colourful, healthy fruit smoothies… and we’re wrapping it up with some well‑earned sweet treats!

During one of my outreach appointments, we even made marshmallow top hats — a simple but delicious snack to try with your little ones at home. We used visuals to support sequencing and to help my client follow the recipe step by step, making it a fun (and tasty) way to build confidence in the kitchen. We might have been a few marshmallows down along the way since he kept stealing them to eat 🫣🤭

Happy Friday everyone!!

🌟 Worried about your or your child’s speech, language, or communication skills?

You’re not alone — and you don’t have to navigate this on your own. Here’s how the process works.

Step 1: Reach out
If you have concerns, you can contact us through:
-Our social media channels
-Our website (https://drzoeroxburgh-slt.co.uk)
-Or by calling us to make an enquiry

Step 2: Free initial telephone consultation
A 15–20 minute call, free of charge and with no obligation to continue.
This is your chance to:
-Share your concerns
-Ask questions
-Explore how we can support you
If an assessment is recommended, we’ll arrange an appointment and send our Ts&Cs and a case history form beforehand.

Step 3: Initial assessment at The Speech Hut
Every assessment is tailored to the individual and may include:
-Formal and informal assessments
-Play-based activities
-Picture or written tasks
-Observation
-Information gathering from parents/carers

Step 4: Therapy planning
If the assessment identifies areas of need, we’ll discuss a personalised therapy schedule and goal plan.
This may look different for each client:
-Weekly sessions
-Fortnightly sessions
-Monthly check-ins
-Ad‑hoc coaching sessions
Therapy goals and approaches are always agreed together before starting, and we are committed to providing evidence‑based therapy for every client.

If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out — we’re here to help.

šŸ“ Starting the week the berrielicious way! šŸ“

Some of our clients kicked off the week with a fun and functional task…smoothie making!

Three of our clients, aged between 5–19, independently followed a visual recipe to create their very own smoothies. They measured and chopped up ingredients, identified foods, learned new action words, followed step‑by‑step sequences, and then tasted and described their final creations working on adjectives. A full sensory, language‑rich experience that can be carried out with all ages.

Functional tasks like this don’t just build language skills such as sequencing, vocabulary, concept knowledge, and following directions. They also nurture confidence, independence, and real‑world life skills. A delicious blend of learning and fun!

It was incredible to see so many happy faces—clients, siblings, and parents all connecting, chatting, and enjoying time together. šŸ’¬šŸ’–

I’m beyond grateful to be part of your communication journeys. Over the past year, I’ve been so proud of the progress each of you has made, and today’s smiles and laughter filled me with joy and pride. šŸ‘

From the bottom of my heart: THANK YOU ALL for making today (and this past year) so special and for choosing and trusting me to support your children’s communication skills. šŸ’•

🌟 The Most Wonderful Time of the Year 🌟

Today, one of my clients made their very first functional request using a big button—asking for none other than this sparkling snow globe! Not only did he make multiple functional requests, but he also took intentional turns with me—our very own game where mum wasn’t allowed to join in 🤣.

Truly the most magical time of the year ā„ļø I can’t wait to see how he progresses with this! 🌟

šŸ—£ļøDevelopmental Language DisorderšŸ—£ļø

🌟 Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) is a hidden but common condition that affects how people understand and use language.

šŸ‘§ Children with DLD may find school, friendships, and learning more challenging.
šŸ‘© Adults with DLD can experience difficulties in work, relationships, and everyday communication.

✨ I bring first-hand expertise as a RADLD Ambassador and years of experience supporting families and individuals with DLD.

šŸ’” I’m planning an information session for families to learn more, share experiences, and find support.

šŸ‘‰ Are you a parent of a child with DLD or suspected DLD, or an adult with DLD yourself?

šŸ’¬ Let me know if you’d be interested in joining!

šŸŽ„āœØ Happy December! āœØšŸŽ„

The countdown is on—just 3 weeks until winter break, and we’ve got a busy, festive month ahead at The Speech Hut!

šŸ“… Over the next few weeks, we’ll be wrapping up 95 more therapy appointments and 2 initial assessments…all while sprinkling in plenty of festive-themed activities to keep building play, language, speech sounds, and fluency across all ages.

šŸŽ‰ This weekend is extra special: I’m hosting a celebration to mark one year of The Speech Hut! 🄳 I’m inviting all clients past and present to join me in saying a giant thank you and celebrating not just the business milestone, but the incredible progress and successes they have achieved this year. I can’t wait to see you all!! ā„ļø 🄳

Today I said goodbye and good luck to another amazing client who has mastered all of his speech therapy goals!

I first met him in January and since then he has learned 8 new sounds — and has generalised every single one into conversational speech! šŸ’¬āœØ
That is HUGE and he should be so, so proud of himself.

I will miss our fortnightly sessions:
šŸ”¹ practicing new sounds
šŸ”¹ chatting about his fun adventures
šŸ”¹ and of course… our competitive games of UnošŸ˜‚

Good luck, dude — you’ve smashed it!!! I’m so proud of youšŸŒŸšŸ™Œ
