Re: newbie here

Hi all,

Anyone still around on this group?!

I am trying to find out some info about working in the USA. I have now been
working in Speech Therapy for 2 years, and have always wanted to live/work
in the States for a bit. I have been told that I may have to have a Masters
degree to do this. I currently have a Postgraduate diploma and I did have

So, I graduated college in 2001, and my gpa was not the greatest,
about 2.75. I live in Austin, and even though I have a degree from a
pretty difficult school, I can't get into UT unless I do the fresh
start program, basically waiving all of my previous coursework, or
jump through some other ridiculous set of hoops. I want to get into a

A few questions about CF, Praxis, and working abroad...

2007-12-15T17:07:33Z

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone here has or knows of someone who has
completed their CFY abroad? I am set to graduate in Aug 2008, and I'm
interested in finding a qualified supervisor in the Middle East under
whom I can work.

If that doesn't work out, then my next question is if anyone has
postponed their CFY and/or Praxis before. I was told that once I

other groups and PECS

2006-09-12T08:55:58Z

Hi everyone,
I'm a very excited person right this moment. I've just completed a 2day
course on PECS and I'm all excited about it. It's a very nice
philosophy on communication. We were told that the evidence for PECS is
very good but I think I'll do some reading up anyway.
Also I have been looking on yahoo for other groups. There is actually a

Yeah I think you are right to try to work on things until it's more
consistent. Though I've had to change things around a bit because she
has already made improvement on her own since my first assessment
visit. So I'm thinking on building on those early communication skills
and see how that goes for a while and see whether we can try to

I have really enjoyed using ABA with one of my autistic clients...not to
say yours is. I think it is a good idea to continue on with the same goals
until they are mastered (more consistent responses) Not sure if this client
can eat or enjoys certain things ( puzzles, animals) or what, but if you can

Thanks for those. I've used the abc teach one before and it's good for
games.
I went to a conference last week and got some good online resources. I
took it all to work so I'll have to remember to log on from work if I

2006-08-02T23:13:04Z

Hi Nicole,
I graduated in '03. I found it wasn't really worth putting all the
effort into filling out the forms for the scolarships I found bc they
were all for only $2000 or $3000. I had more luck applying directly to
my grad program for a TA position. Good luck!
