Yes, I currently work in a language-learning disordered classroom. I have a student who stutters and has a severe language processing impairment. I notice that as language complexity increases, both is the receptive and expressive mode, his stuttering increases. In stuttering therapy, I need to clarify, simplify and demonstrate strategies with visual input to help this student comprehend and retain therapy concepts. With a bilingual client, I would use use multi-modality input and word banks to teach concepts. Nancy
