Speech Evaluation Center
     
Capitol School of Austin offers comprehensive speech evaluations for children 2 years old through 3rd grade.  
   
When to Consider a Speech Evaluation  

Language and speech disorders can exist together or by themselves and can range from mild to severe.

  • If your child has trouble understanding others or
    following directions he/she may have a receptive
    language disorder.
  • If your child has trouble sharing their thoughts, ideas or feelings, he/she may have an expressive language disorder.
  • If your child is unable to produce speech sounds
    correctly or fluently then he/she may have a
    speech disorder.
 
   
The First Step to Remediating Difficulties  
Speech and language difficulties are likely to have
an effect on your child’s social skills, behavior and
academic success. The earlier speech and language
difficulties are identified and treated, the less likely it is that the problems will persist or get worse. A comprehensive speech evaluation is the first step to remediating language and speech problems.
 
   
The Importance of Early Intervention  
Early speech and language intervention can help children be more successful with peer relationships, managing their behavior and overall communication, as well as, reading, writing and other academic tasks.
