Bernice

It was perfect. Dawn was engaging. She gave relevant information and examples. I would have liked a few more examples of therapy materials and ideas that might be used.

Dawn

The presenter was engaging and informative. Could always use more Q&A. I had fun and am glad I did it

Deborah

Excellent, engaging, knowledgeable speaker, clear, etc. Maybe spending less time on the checklists to prepare and more. I would have liked to see examples of therapy (videos), more time on actual therapy and therapy ideas, small group breakout session so that we could discuss our experiences and help each other out, networking with other teletherapists. Liked the platform used, very clear presentation, excellent, thank you

Doretha

Very knowledgeable. It was a good webinar. The information was useful and beneficial.

The knowledge of the speaker. Great presentation.

Maureen

The clarity nd simplcity. Very organized and inclusive. For me they served my needs quite well. Well done.

Nereida

The program was very detailed and discussed scenarios that we may come across in the field. I did not observe any weaknesses in the program. Any questions I had before the program were answered. I really appreciate the work that was put into this program to better prepare us when providing services during virtual sessions.

Nicolette

Dawn was very encouraging and promoted out of the box thinking. Too much time dedicated to virtual set-up vs. therapy with telepractice.

Pristine Sara

More insights on materials and resources that were completely new. Understanding certain areas of tele practices and modifications to be made in the learning part. Very interesting and looking forward to many such webinars that address tele rehabilitation area.

Rachel

The checklists hat were provided. I was a great presentation with lots of great information as I begin my telehealth journey. I was hoping for more therapy ideas, but it was awesome!

Tanya

Speakers experience and demeanor. Thank you!

Alexandra

Resources, personal examples and personal examples. Would be great to have one case study, and a run-down example of session layout.

Joanne

Very informative. Great ideas for parent teaching and carry over. It was great. Thank you.

Givona

Good emphasis on parent coaching. Took a long time to get to the point of the presentation, presenter did not seem prepared. Thank you for this helpful information.

Patricia

Cohesive and relevant information. Again, I enjoyed the presentation and thought the information was helpful.

Sharece

The detailed slides. It was a little long so I found it hard to focus the entire time. I think it being more straight to the point would help.

Tracy

Great checklists. Would love to see examples of teletherapy sessions. Thank you!

Yaritza

Loved the cultural humility aspect and the checklist resources. I wish we would have seen a specific example of a session played. More examples of activities in sessions with parent vs one on one with a child. It was good overall. The presenter was very knowledgable with tons of experience.

Amanda

Addressed diversity and meeting families where they are but not enough concrete examples

Amy

Dawn provided links to great resources. It was a very broad overview. Dawn was a great speaker, very personable and organized!

Candy

Materials that I was unaware of are very helpful. Hope she suggested ideas or techniques that are not too ordinary that every SLPs uses

Checklists for evidence based practice are the best. Provided strategies, activities, websites to integrate into Zoom such as BoomCards

Nicole

Great self-evaluations. Model examples of teaching via video.
