NEW FOR 2024 - Otoscopy. The Sound Teacher has completed the British Society of Audiology (BSA) Certificate in Otoscopy and Tympanometry. This is a BSA accredited course by Tracy James Audiology. The Sound Teacher can perform this specialised assessment in your own home or in The Sound Teacher studio, London, UK.

The Sound Teacher provides formal assessment and targeted support as a stand-alone option, or to compliment a listening therapy programme.

“Body awareness” is actually in the ear: distribution of tension in the body, cramps or slackness, muscle tone, posture, motor skills and fine motor skills are regulated by the ear as a control organ.

Do you or someone you know struggle with speech? Fluency, vocal volume, clarity or even lack of speech (mutism, ASD, anxiety). It’s not as simple as ‘just talk’.

An individual’s experience of sound can change for the better or for the worse depending on how they sense, think, feel and move at any age and stage in life.

I am a Qualified Teacher of Deaf Children and Young People and hold professional membership of the NDCS. I am thrilled to be able to support this brilliant organisation to make an impact in the lives of d/Deaf and hard of hearing children and their families.

The Tomatis® Bone Conduction Kit features a portable module that emits vibrations similar to a cat's purr. Its soft belt can be placed on the spine or trauma site. It helps reduce stress, regulate blood pressure, boost immunity, and support psychomotor functions. The BC Kit is quick, comfortable, and ideal for sensitive users, including babies, those with sensory challenges, or individuals using hearing devices like cochlear implants.

It takes a few weeks for the brain to integrate the effects of Tomatis® listening therapy. During this time, new interests emerge and previous skills are refined. For my son, this has been discovering a passion for drawing that I have never seen before.

Disruption in sound processing is strongly linked to an individual’s coping strategies; a listening assessment can help pinpoint ‘blocks’ to learning.

Additional screening and targeted support to compliment your listening therapy programme.
