It took me a year from the moment when I found Donna Durbin's Accent Reduction Course on the…read moreInternet to find the time, make up my mind and sign up. The only regret that I've had since then - that I haven't done it earlier!:)) Donna is not only an excellent coach but also a very nice and super-positive person! She encouraged and motivated us - her students - to work and to achieve great results. After the completion of the course, I've noticed a lot of improvements in my spoken English: I realized what kind of mistakes I was making and brought awareness to HOW I speak (which is probably the most important part and a key to success). Donna taught us a lot of useful techniques and gave us a lot of tools which we can use every day to further develop and perfect the results of our work. I'm very happy that I took this course (and upset that yesterday was our last class..), and highly recommend Donna to anyone who wants to reduce their accent, be better understood by the others and become more confident and happy!

If you are seeking ways to improve your spoken English don't look any further, Donna can really help you!

Completely unprofessional I think ego is what's going to kill their business and if they're so much experience amongst all of them perhaps they should add that experience to serving better customer care! Updated review!!! I received a call from the owner, what A marvelous lady with such positive energy she spent a good 15 minutes speaking with me and explaining the minor struggles of small businesses and how their rebranding! I am sooo excited to see all that they have to offer once the pandemic gets better. This was such an amazing positive helpful phone call! Such pleasant ownership!

Thank you to the Wilkenfeld Center and their therapist Erin. We did about 6 months of therapy, twice a week for 45 min. And our son totally bloomed. He also looked forward to his speech sessions. Erin is warm, caring, and communicates well with parents so that you can keep reinforcing at home. The sessions were held at my son's preschool in meyerland - was so convenient that they just pulled him in/out of his regular class. I had negative experiences at a couple of speech centers before I found this one. So glad I went with my gut and kept searching.

Want covid for your children? Come here. I just found out that the SLP, whom my 2 year old and 3…read moreyear old have been seeing for months is not vaccinated. The owner of the clinic, Michael Gatto, thinks that this is fine since she is a contracted employee. However, he also stated that he does not require his employees to be vaccinated. He also disclosed that he was unaware of the vaccination status of our SLP and also unaware that she did not inform her patients of this either. There was no apology or a trace of remorse in his voice. With cases rising (It's December 20, 2021), it is not a question of if but when our SLP will contract covid and give it to my kids. She sees multiple kids a day, many who cannot be vaccinated because they are under 5 years old, and at most wears a face shield but the past several weeks has worn nothing. The first SLP we saw is vaccinated; we had to switch to the current one because of scheduling conflicts and it was not disclosed to me at the time of the change that our new SLP was unvaccinated. This only came to light beca use the SLP's husband contracted covid so she reached out to let me know. To be in healthcare- especially in pediatrics- and choose to be unvaccinated is irresponsible and shameful. It also brings into question why she has chosen to not get vaccinated; the last person I want treating my children is someone who doesn't believe in science. I trusted that she was evidence-based in her practice but can't trust this to be true if she doesn't believe in getting vaccinated. The Speech and Language Connection has robbed me of both a sense of security and time. The time spent on admit paperwork and for my children to build a rapport with the therapist is too many hours to count. I'm sure it will take months to get in at TCH, but at least they require their clinicians to be vaccinated, like the majority of healthcare facilities in the city and country. I'm beyond upset- I trusted our SLP to provide therapy and to have my kids' best interest at heart. She has put them at increased risk for no reason and it's unacceptable.
