17: Self-monitoring with clear analysis
Self-monitoring is the invisible skill that allows children to reflect, adapt, and regulate, so as to learn independently and grow.
In this seventeenth episode, Shefali Shah demonstrates with three-and-a-half and four year old deaf children how Auditory-Verbal Therapy systematically fosters the ability to self-monitor speech intelligibility and language usage.
As listening becomes deeply internalised, a deaf or hard of hearing child begins to observe herself, spontaneously modifying her language and speech, to align with increasing accuracy with the patterns she hears around her. This intentional shift in responsibility is central to Auditory-Verbal Therapy and is in accordance with Principle 8.
Self-monitoring is both subtle and powerful as it characterises the independent learner.

🎧 Top Tips from Episode 17
Follow Principle 8 of AVT. Professionals and caregivers support the child in self-monitoring her spoken language through listening.
Foster maturity for self-regulation: Children learn to observe, monitor, and adjust their language and speech, to align with expectations.
Self-regulation is foundational: Self-regulation sets the stage for independent learning.
Speech clarity through listening: Self-monitoring ensures spontaneous, continuous adjustment of speech and language based on the auditory feedback loop.
Pull back intentionally. Parents and professionals gradually withdraw active correction, giving space for the child to monitor and self-correct.
Practice matters: Finely tuned listening skills support accurate imitation of speech and language norms.
