In this video, I work up the courage to talk about my speech pathologist salary: everything I have been paid over the course of my career. Do you know the average speech pathologist salary or the average speech pathologist salary by state? Glassdoor says that number is around $84,000, which frankly was surprising to me. I'm sad to say that after 15 years, I have not been paid that....speechisbeautiful.com/2021/04/my-speech-pathologist-salary-my-entire-work-history/ ... See MoreSee Less

“What’s worth teaching?” 🤔 Starting up another quarter and now I’m starting the curriculum and instruction series. 📖 It’s important to reflect on what we do in speech therapy, maybe even more than regular teachers who are provided with a curriculum.

Instagram is a perfect playground for narcissists. I’ve come to that conclusion after going down the rabbit hole of research into the narcissistic personality disorder 🌀🤯😱 But it’s actually vitally important for you to learn about what a narcissist is and also what an empath is too, especially those of us in helping professions (speech, OT, teaching, nursing, etc). I believe we don’t actually have a lot of narcissists in the trenches of this profession. I bet we have a lot more empaths —and that is who typically gets caught up in the manipulation and lies of the narcissist. Narcissists might be underrepresented in the healing professions, but they are overrepresented in politics, entertainment industry, and many leadership roles —and they are all over IG. No matter who you are you most likely have interacted with a narcissist. To protect yourself, you need to know how to spot a narcissist. This is super random BUT I’m going to start a short series about narcissism and everything I’ve learned 🤯 Check out my stories to hear some more. ... See MoreSee Less

I've spent a lot of time observing students in bilingual kindergarten and how they are learning to read. Because Spanish is not an opaque language, the sounds and symbols of the language match and make it more easy to learn than opaque languages (English is an opaque language and takes children significantly longer to learn because sounds and symbols do not match up)....speechisbeautiful.com/2021/04/kinder-bilingue-bundle-aprender-a-leer-en-espanol-para-ninos/ ...
