Discussed in this episode: What to do when students: Clenching their jaw Rounding their lipsDistorted “throat sound” that sounds like gargling Hybrid of any of the above or doing the “same sound”Remember - it can take a long time to establish the /r/ sound and that doesn’t mean you are doing something wrong as an SLP.
