Thank you so so much! My daughters speech therapy stopped when Covid hit and I noticed a hard decline in her speech. I’ve had no clue how to help her and tried looking for things but when I searched most of what I found wasn’t what she needed, but this is exactly what I was looking for so thank you! I appreciate you!!!!
I'm so excited to try some of these things with my daughter. They are fun and I think she won't feel discouraged. Thank you so much for making these
Thank you for watching!
Thank you for sharing! I am a SLPA and was just assigned my first /r/ kiddo and had NO CLUE where to start. Your videos have been super helpful, thank you! I am feeling very confident for our session this week :)
Let me know if you have any suggestions for other videos!
I just found your channel… thank you for this. Seriously, THANK YOU
From Mississippi I saw this video and had a few students that have not found the /r/ when I acquired them in August. In September or October I started using these exercises and success! All are now able to say /r/ words, phrases, and a few sentences! Thank you!
Oh wow!! I am so happy to hear that!! Thank you for the comment 💕
Thank you SO MUCH for these videos! My daughter met with her school speech therapist just before quarantine so your videos are a life saver! I can see her confidence soar already! 😭🥰
so happy to hear that!
Awesome visual with instruction. Vocalic r's are tricky. Practical approach.
Thank you! There’s a new R video out as well!
Awesome videos! Thank you for putting in the time to get all of these great videos out!
Thank you for watching! Let me know if you have any other video suggestions!
Thanks so much for posting, I'm learning to correct my /r/ sounds as an adult and it's good to have these materials!
I am dropping a NEW adult /r/ video today at 5:30 PM!
im 13 and never been able to say r
I so much appreciate your videos. Our oldest child went through quite a journey with speech therapy starting at age 4 (for language issues outside of pronunciation) but it was only recently that we realized our 7yo was still mispronouncing several sounds in English (most prominently R). I'm finding your videos concise and educational.
Great. Improving my listening here with you from Brazil.
So helpful!!! Thank you for posting this! My grand daughter uses the w instead of the RRRR we are working on it!
Hang in there!!
Thank you! You explained things really well.
Yay! Thank you for watching!
love it! thanks so much
Thank you for making this video!
Thank you for watching!
I started watching these to help my son. Now I can't stop because she's so freaking beautiful!!!!
Hey! I'm a BCBA out of Massachusetts and I just want to say what a great resource your videos have been for me for a kiddo I am working with. Super helpful!!
Hi there! Wow I am so thankful I went to RUclips to check if there was a legitimate video for R's. So grateful for this! I am looking for help with my r's this summer and am wondering if perhaps you know anyone doing direct service/lessons over zoom or if there is a website/service for such :) Thank you!
I will keep you updated!!
amazing. Using with my ESL students!
Thank you for watching!
this is so helpful thank you
Glad it was helpful!
All of your videos are so incredibly helpful!! Watching this had me thinking -how do they do speech therapy in Australia haha the vocalic R sounds are more like an “ah”
Thank you!!
The only thing that worked for my daughter was saying RiveR Red or River Ed. She then was able to say red and that's all it took! Lots of practice and pausing after the river transitioning to red but if you have them draw out the river like riverrrrrrrrr ed soon they will get it, I hope this helps! After she coukd say red she was able to master other r sounds
Great video! Thank you from a speech therapist!
:)
This is helpful! Any suggestions for a 3-year-old who regularly pronounces -or- sounds as -air-? (Ex. “My car fell on the flair”)
I am teacher and I'm really having a hard time sounding my "r" , since young I have this speech problem, hope you can give me more tips with this. This video helps me practicing my r sound. Thank you

Are you cueing for retroflexed or bunched /r/? Sounds like you use cues for both like the taco rolls (retroflexed?) and the sour spray stroking the sides of the tongue (bunched?) What method do you teach?
I wasn't sure how to get my son to overcome his speech issues... amazingly helpful videos.. thanks :)
I am so happy that they’re helpful!
Very nice, you are doing great job. Please make a video how to teach verbal imitation to a child .
begin with GROSS motor imitation! (runing, jumping, etc) followed by fine motor imitation, (clapping your hands, playing finger puppets, sneezing something off of your head) also - check out my video THE BEST WAY TO GET YOUR CHILD TO TALK that is featured on my channel- THEN try the hand cues once all of the other imitation levels are met! :)
I have 4 high schoolers who I started working with and I have seen about 4-5 times each. They all came to me needing to work on their /r/ (some just vocalic r others r in general)but they think I have a magic wand to make them say it. It’s a lot of work for them and I find that they become exhausted and yawning and looking around 15 minutes in. Between me explaining and showing them and them struggling to get it right I don’t blame them. But I have emphasized how important it is to practice at home every day because they need to get their tongue stronger and be able to hold the position, but they don’t do the work at home. I see them a couple times a month but without the practice on their own I don’t see how they will make any progress. I have explained to them that the tongue is a muscle and it needs strengthening and practicing correct positioning just like with any other muscle in the body. Practice is key. They seem to forget what they need to do in between sessions and even though we go over tongue position at the beginning of each session and start with tongue warm ups they don’t seem to ever remember what they need to do. Two of them don’t even think there is anything wrong with how they talk so they are not motivated to put in the work. They are so set in their ways at this age and so hard to change what their tongue has been doing their whole lives up to this point. They keep reverting to their habitual tongue position for /r/. I am wondering if you have found anything else that might work for students like that? I see them via teletherapy. Fellow SLP
I didn't even know I needed this...
there ya go!
My grandson is the sweetest 10 year year-old child and he’s getting bullied at school because he can’t annunciate certain words. You have no idea how glad I am to find you we’re going to start right away tomorrow. How long does it take to strengthen the muscles so they are able to pronounce the words please?
Genius
Thank you dear
Thanks for watching!
Thanks 😊
Thanks for watching!
Can you post more videos for the r sound? For adults if it is possible

Could you please teach the pronunciation of the word: factor.? Thanks,
Hi Kelly.... My son has issues with words like WORM, he'll say Wom, bird, girl... and slightly ending like Car.. is that vocalic R?
what do you recommend for helping a kid with the word Thirty? Is there two different videos for those sound combos?
Hmm! So I do have a “th” sound video if you want to see how that’s made but it should just be the “er” sound + d + ee “thirty” so just regular er sound should be targeted for the R!
Can u do one for middle r please
New r video just came out! Check it out!
Could you do a video for a central L and R please? Those middle sounds give my 8 year old the worst time.
That’s definitely the hardest position! I will see what i can do!!
Also you could do a one month subscription to ultimateslp.com! Your 8 year old would love playing the games on that sight & you can select Medial R words on every activity! It would be worth the $12 a month or even just doing the free trial for two weeks to get a lot of repetitions in!
Which category does "Grrr" fit into? Bc logically I want to say it's vocalic but it doesn't feel that way in my mouth when I say it.
Is it normal for a 4.5 yr old to struggle with multiple sounds?
Ls, Rs, some blends and he sometimes skips Ss at the beginning if words even though he can make the s sound...
I worry about it sometimes, but I'm really glad that I found your videos so I can try helping him more myself.
Have you seen kiddos with multiple speech problems successfully and properly speak?
On average how long does it take to see changes in speech?
How often/how long should we be doing exercises and practice? Thank you!❤
yes! absolutely! So it sounds like (just based off of the examples that you gave) that it may be /s-blends/ that he is having trouble with! I wouldn't worry to much about the /r/ yet because that will come with time when he's developmentally appropriate for the sound (usually by age 7) 1 quick question, has he been checked for a tongue tie? can he stick his tongue out of his mouth, up, down, to the roof of his mouth, etc? If he CAN and he does not have a tongue tie - I would check out my lip/tongue exercises video and try the peanut butter licking exercise (you can use other things like marshmellow cream or nutella) to try to get his tongue up to the roof of his mouth - and do each exercises 10 times 3 xs per day - but make sure to give your child treats to help them keep working! the progress always depends on the child - if they don't recognize there is a difference between the way you say the word / the way it sounds when they say it OR if they don't CARE to fix it, then progress is usually limited until they have more motivation - unless "therapy" is SUPER fun and they enjoy practicing their sounds while playing fun games, etc -- watch my video "top tip: make it fun" for more ideas! For your little one, practice once per day for 30 minutes and try not to over correct throughout the rest of the day - focus on JUST that one sound you're targeting /l/ for example ( and I have 2 videos on the l sound!) and that way it stays fun and interesting and they work hard during that 30 minutes and then get to have the rest of their day to play! I hope this helped!
im 13 and I always get made fun of at school so since its summer im really trying to fix it before school thank you
You can do it! Promise!
I have an 8 yr old student whose stuck on vocalic R in medial positions. This info is gold! Thanks
Is there a difference between the English R sound and other languages? If I follow those steps will I be able to say the R sound for all the languages or just English? I speak Arabic and English.
There are slight dialectical differences but it is going to be based on where you’re located not only America but also in other countries with pronunciation. this is for typical (general) American R sound but productions vary based on state
The Arabic”r” is different from the English ‘“r”.
Thank you for your nice explanation I am a speech and language pathologist but for the Arabs Our problem is that each letter may be consonant or vowel It also accepts amplification and thinning
Ooo very interesting!
how long should each practice/session be? would 10 to 15 minute sessions be to long or short?
For oral motor - too long & for practice R sound, just right!
Make sure to mix in a game / activity for fun!
Hey I'm a 12 year old 6th grader who's struggling with final r and the word world do you offer any help out of videos
Hey Ally, send me a short video of you saying those words to my Instagram so I can help you out!
My son seems to do okay with this sound but struggles with the rl combo as heard in world, girl and so on. It seems like his toung gets all confused with this sound. Do you have any advice for this? He just turned 12 and we have yet to hear much change.
I have a new R video out and mentioned this exact word in it! it's a very difficulty word! check out the new video!

I appreciate your techniques and enthusiasm, I know your videos have helped many, but you shouldn't encourage the oral motor exercises, legitimate professional literature refutes the appropriateness of oral motor exercises as an intervention to change speech and sound productions. Limited oral motor strength is needed to speak, warm up is not necessary. a few simple mouth movements may help the child focus on the mouth, but should really only be a small amount of therapy session focus.
Yes, that is exactly how I use oral motor exercises, beginning of each session, approximately 2 minutes, and then I refer back as necessary throughout the session, and they have been extremely helpful for my clients for awareness, coordination & sequencing. I literally can’t stand when therapists criticize what works for other therapists. We are all on the same team here. I am simply trying to help others & offer advice on what has worked for me personally with my clients. Your welcome to post a video on whatever techniques work for you & your clients but I don’t disrespect other therapists for their approaches. Thanks for you opinion.
