Speech therapist's Day - what kind of holiday is it?

Few people know that in the ranks of professional holidays there is also such a Day as a speech therapist. As a rule, it is believed that these specialists are working exclusively on correcting the incorrect pronunciation of certain sounds.

However, correction of speech defects is only the tip of the iceberg. They work with all violations without exception: general underdevelopment of pronunciation, its absence, various problems with voice, tempo and timbre. All kinds of speech deviations arising from any pathologies of the human nervous system are also under their jurisdiction.

When is the holiday?

Unfortunately, even those people who know about the existence of this holiday constantly forget about when the Speech Therapist's Day is celebrated in Russia. And it is celebrated in mid–November - on the 14th. Lack of awareness, as well as underestimation of how important it is to provide speech therapy to a child on time – this is a big problem for many parents. In order for classes with your baby to be successful, early diagnosis of various deviations of his speech is of great importance.

Important to know

These are some of the first teachers in the life of your children, so on the Day of the speech therapist it is very important to pay attention to them and not forget to congratulate them. According to statistics, to our great regret, the number of speech disorders in babies is growing every year, so the relevance of correcting speech abnormalities has long been global. In this regard, every preschool institution now has a full-time speech therapist. You can contact him if your child has speech problems. These people, as a rule, celebrate the day of the speech therapist at the workplace.

The process of correcting children's speech is a rather long process that requires a lot of patience from parents and all relatives, as well as the strictest discipline on the part of the child. But keep in mind that sometimes only this very, very difficult work can lead to serious positive results and further successful training. That's why these specialists and their holiday – the Day of the speech therapist - are important. After all, the way they work with your children is based on the whole future life of the kids. Remember: there are always specific people behind a good result – these are the first speech therapy teachers for children. And despite the fact that it is not so easy to work with kids, they perform small and big feats every day.

Parents should be attentive to their children from early childhood, as well as to what and how they say. And at the first signs of speech lag, or other deviations, it is necessary to urgently contact a speech therapist - the only way to get guaranteed help. And it won't take much time, so don't be shy - it's better to come right away. And be sure to tell him everything that bothers you.

Conclusion

And when the International Day of the Speech Therapist Teacher comes, I would like to join the numerous congratulations and wish these people good health, success in their difficult work, boundless patience and family warmth.
