A Sixth-Grader Talks About His Asperger’s
Healing Thresholds
Paul is a Madison, Wisconsin, sixth-grader who happens to have Asperger’s Syndrome. His speech-language pathologist, Penny Bright, of Mind Matters Clinics, has worked with him during the last couple of school years. She explains that many of the interventions that have helped Paul gain communication and socials skills include Berard Auditory Integration Training (AIT), and Fast ForWord®, along with speech therapy. Paul says that he has had his ups and downs at school; he found elementary school to be easy, but a year at a French Montessori school to be a bit more difficult. He especially liked the format where he could learn at his own speed and learn from others.
