all fighting”

The Self-Voice (SV) Programme
Self-Voice is a learning method which uses recordings of the client's own voice to help with listening, memory, speaking, reading, writing, spelling, numeracy and sequencing difficulties. The learning material is modelled by the tutor, repeated by the learner and then recorded. The learner works with these recordings at home and it has been found that the stimulus of one's own voice is a particularly powerful aid to learning. It is suitable for children as well as adults and has also been found to be beneficial as a rehabilitation aid after strokes. The Self-Voice approach is based on the A.R.R.O.W. (Aural-Read-Respond-Oral-Written) technique developed by Dr. Colin Lane in the U.K.
The Self-Voice programme aims to address literacy problems through this specially developed technique in which the individual listens to his or her own voice whilst completing precision spelling and self-voice recording of factually related topics. In addition they may be required to listen to and read material in book form.
Originally designed to help hearing-impaired children improve their speech and listening skills, the Self-Voice technique also improved memory, language and literacy skills. Furthermore it was found that a wide variety of clients with poor reading skills, visual impairment, language disorders or learning difficulties were also benefiting from this technique.
If you are interested in our Self-Voice Programme, please contact us, or complete the Assessment Enquiry form.
