Discover a comprehensive, evidence-based framework for speech development designed for both professionals and parents. Over five structured modules, you will master practical techniques—including play-based learning, visual supports, and articulatory exercises—to help children with speech delays communicate effectively and confidently using the MIKKO Pro approach.
Initiating Speech in Children with SEN: Fundamentals of stimulating speech in nonverbal children, focusing on imitation skills, articulatory motor skills, and speech breathing.
Vocabulary Development: Strategies to expand both receptive (passive) and active vocabulary, covering methods for teaching nouns, verbs, and adjectives.
Development of Grammatical Structure: Mastering the rules of language structure, including singular/plural forms, pronouns, case endings, and prepositions.
Development of Phrase Speech: Techniques for transitioning from single words to simple sentences using requests (mands) and visual supports.
Development of Coherent Speech: The final stage focusing on narrative skills, storytelling, describing pictures, and understanding cause-and-effect relationships

Initiating speech: You work with nonverbal children and need effective strategies to stimulate first sounds and imitation skills.
Building structure: It is challenging to transition a child from using single words to constructing phrases and complete sentences.
Engaging the child: You need ready-made, play-based exercises to make vocabulary and grammar learning motivating rather than tedious33.
By the end of this course, you will be able to analyse behaviour professionally and implement individualised support plans that respect the child’s needs while effectively reducing challenging behaviour.
Master speech initiation: Effectively stimulate speech in nonverbal children using imitation, breathing exercises, and articulatory gymnastics.
Expand vocabulary: Use play-based methods to develop both active and passive vocabulary (nouns, verbs, adjectives).
Teach grammar: Apply techniques for teaching grammatical structure, including plurals, prepositions, and word formation.
Build phrases: Use visual supports (such as sentence strips) to help children transition from words to two- to four-word phrases.
Foster coherence: Develop a child’s ability to tell stories, describe pictures, and understand cause-and-effect relationships.
