Hey, there SLPs! In this episode, we talk with Robert (Bob) McKinney, a seasoned school-based speech-language pathologist with almost two decades of experience in secondary education. In this episode, Bob talks about how he went from being an ESL teacher all over the world to becoming a well-known SLP in one of the biggest all-secondary school districts in the nation! His distinct experience and deep involvement in the California Speech Language Hearing Association offer insightful perspectives on the efficacy of teamwork and practical approaches to working in secondary schools.
Here’s what we learned:
- Managing parental expectations and advocating for the most effective approach.
- Collaboration with teachers helps maintain a positive and effective learning environment.
- Overall positive experiences with the push-in model over the years.
- Clear communication and advocacy for the push-in model to both parents and teachers.
