Understanding Literacy and Phonological Difficulties

Literacy and phonological difficulties can affect a child’s ability to recognise sounds, decode words, and develop strong reading and writing skills. Children with these challenges may struggle with spelling, reading fluency, or understanding text, which can impact their academic performance and confidence. Early identification and targeted support are essential to help children build the skills they need to succeed.

How Can We Help?

At Asha Speech Pathology, we provide tailored support for children experiencing literacy and phonological difficulties. We use evidence-based approaches to strengthen phonological awareness, improve sound recognition, and enhance reading and writing skills. Our goal is to create a solid foundation for literacy development by focusing on each child’s unique needs.

Our Approach to Therapy

Our therapy sessions are interactive, engaging, and designed to make learning enjoyable. Through fun activities like sound games, word-building exercises, and storytelling, we help children improve their phonological skills while fostering a love for reading and learning.

We also work closely with parents and educators, providing practical strategies to support literacy growth at home and in the classroom.
