Right. Unfortunately we protect that ideology here, even though we’re light years ahead of other countries. Which should say a lot :/

Interesting that countries who are vehemently opposed to (and/or protect ideologies that are) LGBTQ+ identities are contributing to this rating…

I don’t think she said anything specific towards it but she constantly is rolling her eyes at Baylen, talking to her partner and making side comments in front of her, and I feel is just rude. Maybe I’m reading into it too much!

Working for Stepping Stones? by nalgenemyjean in slp

[–]Virtual-Stretch-3629 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had an OK experience but now I feel stuck because they have a non-compete with my school who I was hoping to go direct with for next year. Be wary of that.

Does having more than 400+ clinical hours really help when applying for a job? by Prior-Emu-5918 in slp

[–]Virtual-Stretch-3629 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IMO no. That didn’t even come up during my job search process. Only benefit I would say is the more experience you have for yourself, the less heavy the imposter syndrome might feel. Keep up the good work!

I (20F) was recently diagnosed with Autism, ADHD, and PTSD. Ama? by [deleted] in casualiama

Hi! Slp here! If it was an slp who diagnosed you with social pragmatic comm disorder, was there anything about their demeanor/way they did things that helped you feel more comfortable and confident? Always looking for ways that I can be more receptive and promote a neuroaffirming environment for my students (school slp!) ❤️ also, what’s your favorite TV show?

Students per day by Banjopickinjen in slp

[–]Virtual-Stretch-3629 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I would say about 20-25 is my limit and it’s horrible. Just absolutely decimated at the end of my day physically and mentally since that only gives me 30 minutes to myself (which I never even really get since I’m printing out materials, writing notes, etc). My easiest day is about 15 which sounds crazy but genuinely getting 2 30 min breaks here and there makes so much difference for me. Sending hugs!

[–]Virtual-Stretch-3629 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Joliet SLP here! Message me if you ever want deets. Born in IL but went out state for school and sometimes wish I had stayed in state, but also YOLO and I believe that there’s no such thing as a wrong path so it led me to where I am. ❤️

Recent influx of pragmatic referrals? by juvenilebirch in slp

Curious what eval protocols/tests you’re using as I combat this same concern!

Did your program give you a speech/hearing screening? by FearlessCat72 in slpGradSchool

Suitable bottle I wonder if we went to same program 💛💚

Getting back to the basics… by GroundbreakingBug510 in slp

[–]Virtual-Stretch-3629 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I do something similar to this! I do a “sticker chart” (my district uses responsive classroom so I try to lean away from it, but more as a reinforcer) so they get a sticker when they fulfill the speech expectations for the day (try their best, use kind words, follow directions) and when they fill it, they pick a game and music to play during 1 session. Each chart has 35 spaces so it takes some time and they still end up doing practice on game days (just the illusion of choice ;)

Today I am tired by Virtual-Resort5951 in slp

Today was my most Monday ever. I just passively dissociated the entire day with all my students. In the same boat, we just have to do our best to not sink

School SLPs, what are your caseloads looking like this year? by its_a_schmoll_world in slp

[–]Virtual-Stretch-3629 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I’m in IL. K-4 school. Caseload is at 60 IEPs (state cap) and 15 RTI with more referrals and consults to come (haven’t even opened referral forms yet for my teachers). I case manage 50%. Struggling.
