Re: Career as speech and hearing therapist?
The field you have chosen is the rarest & so let me congratulate you for focusing on one of the emerging need of future world. Speech & Hearing therapies are amongst the techniques that will gain its importance in near future. Today , when you are focusing on that , then there are sometimes children born with some malfunctions in their body . Among that some of them have problem in hearing & speaking . You can work as the therapists providing therapies to them & also in the field of radiology , sound hearing exercise must be given to doctors in order to diagnose the problems. you can also work as their trainers.
Wish you luck for your future & try focusing on it as much as posssible !! |

Speech therapists often work with people having speech-related disorders. Most of these people have the inability to produce sounds, speech rhythm and fluency problems, and voice disorders. A Speech therapist helps people who want to modify accents or have swallowing difficulties. Their work mostly involves in the assessment, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of speech-related disorders.
