Professional Development Testimonials.
"Megan was a fantastic instructor. Extremely knowledgeable and easy to talk to. She responded promptly to questions and made the class a positive learning environment."
"I highly recommend this class for all SLP's. It has changed the way I look at literacy for my students and for my caseload. I feel I am a better clinician because of this class. Thank you for the opportunity:)"
"The course was excellent. I am so glad that I took it. Megan was an excellent teacher that provided very meaningful, relevant, and timely curriculum for this topic."
"It really transformed how I implement language and articulation intervention. It also pushed me to change my work setting for next year so that I will work with K-5 students and implement many of these strategies. But most of all, it was professionally stimulating and helped me grow as a SLP. Thank you!"
TESTIMONIALS
Clinic.
“I really can’t begin to thank you enough, personally, for all you have done for (my child). Your assessments and help with his reading have made a huge impact on him and have truly helped him break out of the world he was in into a larger, more aware, communicative world. You have been a huge blessing to him and to me and to our whole family as well. Your time and talents truly have been an invaluable resource for us and I appreciate you so very much!”
"I've worked with A LOT of professionals in those 13 years and I just have to say that YOU, definitely stand out as one of the best - you've probably done more for my boy than any one other person has and I am deeply grateful:)"
"I don't know how to put into words how you have helped. You have given her tools to aid in her being successful. You have built up her confidence. Hard work pays off. She has come so far...thank you for your ongoing support and guidance."
Teaching.
"Outside of my research, my encounters with Megan have been nothing but positive. As I observe her encounters with other classmates I can see that she strives to help all students obtain goals that may have previously seemed impossible. When she addresses each situation she does so in a manner that does not heighten the negative ideas, but provides ways to strengthen the positive ones. If at first there is no clear way to address the problem Megan does everything in her power to solve the problem. Challenges in terms of research, creative writing, or scholarships can be overcome with Megan’s insight and guidance. Though, she will not guarantee that it will be easy she will guarantee that she will find a way to make whatever it is the student wants to be achieved."
"I feel incredibly blessed to have such an amazing professor like you and I just wanted to personally thank you for the email...Thank you for reaching out. It inspires hope in me that there are still good people in this world who will bravely send email like this. Thank you for all you do."
"I have been wanting to tell you I've really appreciated having you as a professor. You demonstrate a very genuine concern for your students well-being, which can often be rare to see."
"I appreciate your kindness! It is nice to know that there is a professor out there that cares!"
