Book Reviews of Help Me Talk Right: How to Teach a Child to Say the 'R' Sound in 15 Easy Lessons

Book Review: Excellent book, my four year old son can say the R correctly
Summary: 5 Stars

As a former teacher and stay home mom, I fully know that many speech difficulties are outgrown with time. My son was very verbal at an early age, but had great difficulty with the R and L sounds (he replaced them with a W, saying Sawa instead of Sara or Wove instead of Love). After he turned four I decided to buy the R book.

We did a few of the lessons (no pressure) and I was pretty skeptical that it would even work. I must admit we didn't even complete the book, and since my son is pretty little we were more flexible than the written lesson, I just tried to make it fun. That's why I was so surprised with the change.

The tongue placement exercise changed his world. We were watching the Christmas movie with Rudolph and Herbie the elf. We had done a few lessons (without any real signs of change) and during the movie he said HerrrRbie (instead of Hewbie). I couldn't believe it! Over the course of 3 months his R became stronger, we reminded him about 'making a muscle' with his tongue when he would attempt to say a word with an R.

He is now able to say the R no matter where it is in the word, beginning/middle/end (That came in stages...middle came first).
Just as I was about to buy the L book he really seemed to gain so much control over his tongue. He seemed to think about where he had to put it to mimmick sounds. He is pronouncing his L correctly and I feel that is largely due to the control he gained with our R lessons.

Thank you for saving us loads of time and money. I can't say enough thank you's to the author.

Summary of Help Me Talk Right: How to Teach a Child to Say the 'R' Sound in 15 Easy Lessons

Free of technical jargon and easy to use, this book is for speech pathologists, speech assistants, and parents who wish to teach a child how to say the "r" sound and use it in conversation. Everything you need to know about teaching a child to say and use the "r" sound is clearly shown in a step-by-step format. Each lesson builds upon the successes of previous lessons so that the child is challenged to use the "r" more often until she is able to use it in conversation. The book comes complete with worksheets, suggestions for games and fun exercises, and a certificate of achievement.
