Speech Therapy Homework:
Setting up a Successful Home Exercise Program Using Apps
One-on-one speech therapy sessions allow the speech-language pathologist to fully assess what’s happening and develop a treatment plan. But often these appointments are limited to under an hour and are only available a few times a week.
We know that recovery from a stroke or brain injury takes lots of repetition. That means that most of the work of getting better actually needs to happen outside the speech therapy session! Are you setting up your clients for success with an evidence-based home program?

1. Prescribe the right apps, activities, and settings for your client’s needs.
We’ve given you one page for our best-selling Language Therapy 4-in-1 app, and another for the sequel: Advanced Language Therapy 4-in-1. You’ll find one page for all 4 of the apps in our Aphasia Elements app bundle, and another for the client-facing Clinical Tools bundle apps.
2. Set up a personalized weekly practice schedule to keep your clients on track and working daily.
Research suggests that daily practice is best, and a study of our Language Therapy app showed 20 minutes a day was enough to make significant progress.
3. Set goals before practice and make notes after practice with our Daily Practice Notes.
