Unique Approach
We are different than the average AAC device
What’s the Unique Approach?
The SPELLERS Method stands out for its unique focus on motor coaching. Before discovering SPELLERS, no one had ever coached my son’s motor skills. Now, we engage the gross motor functions of the arm and shoulder, while the communication partner is trained to guide these motor actions—specifically the arm and eyes—to reach the correct letter.
With other methods of AAC (Augmentative and Alternative Communication), motor skills were never previously addressed. Darcy is a highly skilled motor coach who has helped people with Down syndrome worldwide become robust communicators. Her expertise and dedication have transformed the way individuals with Down syndrome engage in communication and prove the effectiveness of motor coaching in the SPELLERS Method.
By emphasizing motor skills, SPELLERS Method brings a revolutionary approach to communication for those who need it most.
