THE TRUE EAR IS THE BRAIN…
We hear with the BRAIN – the ears are simply the way in to the brain.
Auditory-Verbal Therapy (AVT) focusses on stimulating, developing and growing the auditory brain for children who have a hearing loss.
A qualified Auditory-Verbal Therapist works with parents, carers, teachers and anyone who relates to the child to use strategies or techniques to develop the auditory brain.
The auditory brain is fundamental in developing language, reading and social skills in all children and for those who have a hearing loss, it can be helpful to use techniques and strategies to build this important part of the brain.
