Letters are frequencies ππ
When we hear speech, our brain has to recognise tiny differences in sound frequency, rhythm and timing.
For example, vowel sounds such as A, E, I, O and U are heard at different frequencies. If a childβs auditory system is not processing these sounds clearly, words can become blurred, muddled or misheard.
This can be part of auditory processing difficulties, which may be seen in children with:
π§ Dyslexia
β‘ ADHD
π Autism
π£οΈ Speech and language difficulties
π Reading, spelling or learning challenges
How might this show up?
π Mishearing words
π£οΈ Confusing similar-sounding sounds
π’ Struggling to follow instructions, especially in a noisy classroom
π§© Poor phonological awareness
βοΈ Difficulty with spelling
π Struggles with reading and sounding out words
π¬ Unclear speech or delayed speech development
π΅βπ« Appearing distracted when actually overwhelmed by sound
A child may hear βsomethingβ, but their brain may not be accurately processing what was said.
This is why sound training can be so powerful. It helps the brain tune in to the frequencies, rhythm and patterns of speech, supporting listening, language, attention, reading and learning.
Sometimes itβs not that your child isnβt listeningβ¦
Itβs that their brain is working hard to decode the sound. π
