I cover:
1. Application tips
2. Study tips
3. Placement tips

When episodes are labelled SLP CORNER - SNACK it just means that it is a shorter version of my regular podcast that offers bite sized information that is interesting and worth a discussion.

Dr. Stefka Marinova-Todd is joining us again today to discuss all things bilingualism and children with special needs. Dr. Marinova-Todd is a developmental psycholinguist with her main research interests being bilingual language development and second language acquisition. Dr. Marinova-Todd is an Associate Professor at the School of Audiology and Speech Sciences at UBC and is currently an Associate Editor at Applied Psycholinguistics, and is on the editorial board at Language, Speech and Hearing Services in Schools which is an ASHA journal. 

We cover questions such as: 
- Are there differences in early language development between monolingual and bilingual-exposed young children with autism?  
- If a child has autism, and the parents first language is not English, which language should they speak to their child in and why? Should parents speak in a language they aren’t fully proficient in? 
- If a child has special needs should they still be learning another language if their siblings are but the parents L1 is English?

I am very excited for my guest today! It is my favourite SLP professor Dr. Stefka Marinova-Todd. She is a developmental psycholinguist with her main research interests being bilingual language development and second language acquisition. Dr. Marinova-Todd is an Associate Professor at the School of Audiology and Speech Sciences at UBC and is currently an Associate Editor at Applied Psycholinguistics, and is on the editorial board at Language, Speech and Hearing Services in Schools which is an ASHA journal. 

We cover popular questions such as:
- When are you considered a bilingual? What does it mean to be bilingual? 
- What are the benefits to learning a second language? 
- Is bilingualism or learning a second language the reason why a child is a “late talker” or experiencing delays in their language development? 
- When is it too late or is it never too late to learn a second language in childhood? 

We also talk about language immersion schools, code-switching, milestones and tips for introducing a new language to your child.

PSA: The first few minutes of this episode has poor audio quality. We change recording platforms and it gets much better after the beginning few questions! Sorry about this and I hope you hang in there because this podcast lays out so much valuable information for both parents and clinicians.

Time to talk all things finances, saving, retirement, investing, money management and the list goes on! So excited to have Ryan Wells and Giacomo Silvestri from Allied Health Financial. Ryan and Giacomo are physiotherapists based out of Toronto, Canada who  started Allied Health Financial after recognizing a lack of financial education among allied health professionals. They feel that many individuals who are focused on the care of their patients have not spent a lot of time focusing on their financial future. Their goal is to empower Canadian allied health professionals to take control of their financial future by providing evidence-based personal finance education. A great place for people to get started is by downloading their free Financial ToolKit which includes their Financial Planner, Tax Tracker and Savings Calculator.

We discuss all things finances for both parents, students, new grads and allied healthcare professionals. Topics such as rent, savings, retirement planning, budgeting with a child with special needs, effective ways to pay off student loans and investing are all discussed.

Find Ryan and Giacomo on Instagram @ahfcan, Facebook, twitter, YouTube, and they also have a podcast!
