PRE-REQUISITE Expertise
Pyramid Academic Consultants does not propose setting up functional conversation teaching with an application or a speech creating unit because these superior-tech alternatives do NOT involve the social interaction that is essential to interaction and is the cornerstone of the Photo Exchange Interaction Procedure. Useful interaction education should get started with a standard PECS Interaction Reserve. Analysis has demonstrated that most learners can learn phases I via IV of the lower-tech PECS Conversation protocol within 3- to 9-months.
