DLD & Higher Education

Each year, we are hearing from more people with Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) who are undertaking ongoing study post school. Eires, a person with DLD, Dyslexia and ADHD has recently completed her Masters to become a speech pathologist. In this episode of The Talking DLD Podcast, we explore her experiences at school and university and the many hurdles she has overcome to follow her dreams. In this episode, Eires, shares her recommendations for educators working with people with DLD and provides tips for families and people with DLD on how to navigate ongoing learning.

 

Listener note: This episode has some minor technical difficulties affecting audio quality that we were unable to fix during editing. We decided not to re-record the episode due to the amazing insights provided by Eires that we were worried we would lose if we did a redo. Enjoy.
