I’m obsessed with the variety of cues that Rebecca provides in her handbooks! I work on the /l/ sound a lot of the time and this handbook has definitely broadened my perspective to different ways I can support my young ones to produce the sound!

This handbook is so helpful! I love the way Rebecca approaches articulation therapy. I highly recommend it. I have had a couple students with tricky L’s and this saved me!

This handbook is a must have! The range of ideas is brilliant. I have been able to troubleshoot our way to success without stress

I love these handbooks! I have purchased the /k/ & /g/, /l/ and ‘sh’. It is so helpful to have a variety of cues, elicitation techniques and word lists.
The key word environments lists have been a huge success for children who were not responding to the other cues.
I recommend purchasing these handbooks. They are well organised and evidenced based (provides a list of references).

These handbooks are all fantastic!! They’re a must-have resource for when you feel like you’ve used up all your usual tips and tricks to elicit sounds! Rebecca has covered so much, and it is all presented so beautifully. Great quality, as always!

I have had so many /l/ students over the years, and I have wished for this material in the past when I’ve gotten stuck. This resource is clear, concise and is laid out in the most beautiful way. I love how Rebecca organizes the types of cues in a user friendly, easy to follow manual. It reinforces that not every cue is meant for every kid, and when something doesn’t stick, don’t get in a rut…. move on to another. I am so thankful for her hard work and effort in compiling this. I appreciate everything she does for our field and I cant wait for the next sound she releases!

This handbook is a go-to for working on the L sound! As a new grad, this handbook has given me so many tips and tricks to help elicit the L Sound and I have been able to help my clients master their L sounds with this. I have not used the same tip twice and there are so many that I had never thought of! 10/10 resource
