In this episode of Teaching in Color, we sit down with Kavya Nadella, a dedicated school-based pediatric speech therapist working with elementary students, many of whom are bilingual Spanish speakers. Kavya shares insights into the intersection of language development, academic success, and the unique challenges bilingual students face in speech therapy. We discuss the importance of cultural responsiveness, advocacy for multilingual learners, and how speech therapy can be a game-changer in fostering confidence and communication skills.
