The developer of the only clinically-validated language therapy application MITA that was downloaded by over 3 million families, brings you a series of Speech Therapy apps: Speech Therapy Step 1 – Preverbal exercises Speech Therapy Step 2 – Learn to sequence sounds Speech Therapy Step 3 – Learn to say 500+ words Speech Therapy Step 4 – Learn to say complex words Speech Therapy Step 5 – Record your own model words and exercise articulation _______________ Speech Therapy Step 2 is for children who already learned many words and want to exercise on their articulation. HOW IT WORKS? Speech Therapy Step 2 uses 500+ prerecorded video exercises. These videos encourage children to mirror words’ pronunciation. A proprietary AI algorithm measures similarity between model words and children’s vocalizations. Improvements are rewarded with reinforcers and PlayTime. This technique was demonstrated to improve speech production in toddlers, late talkers (speech delay), children with Apraxia of Speech, Stuttering, Autism, ADHD, Down Syndrome, Sensory Processing Disorder, Dysarthria. Video exercises are followed by a PlayTime. Improvements in performance are rewarded with reinforcers and a longer PlayTime. In order to achieve a longer PlayTime, children try to improve their articulation. In this way the app works autonomously all the time encouraging children to improve articulation. LEARN WITH SPEECH THERAPY STEP 2 - The only speech therapy app that rewards your child proportionally to the improvement of their articulation. - Uses scientifically proven video modeling for effective speech development. - Voice-activated functionality provides a fun, interactive learning experience. - The app basic version is completely FREE! - No ads. SCIENTIFICALLY-PROVEN LEARNING TECHNIQUES Speech Therapy Step 2 uses video modeling to create an immersive learning environment. When children watch model videos in real time, their MIRROR NEURONS are engaged. This is scientifically proven to be highly effective in speech development. FROM THE DEVELOPERS OF THE CLINICALLY-VALIDATED LANGUAGE THERAPY APPLICATION MITA Speech Therapy Step 2 is developed by Boston University neuroscientist Dr. A. Vyshedskiy, Speech and Language Therapist Y. Bolotovsky, Harvard-educated early-child-development specialist R. Dunn, MIT-educated J. Elgart, and a group of award-winning artists and developers.

This app teaches your child how verbs and nouns combine, how adjectives and nouns combine, and more. It's the critical connection your child needs to advance in language. Right now, your child may have nouns, core words ("more", "help", "all done"), sentence frames ("I want ..."), and even some gestalts. That's good but not enough. In the short term, it makes sense to emphasize functional communication. But in the long term, growth is only possible if your child learns how joining words leads to endless possibilities. This app gives your child the key to unlock their future language development, using a Visual AAC plus step-by-step guided levels. We encourage you to try it with your child.
