[{"content":"Speech Genie works as a static page, but speech recognition support depends on the browser. Some browsers do not expose the Web Speech API. Some devices require a secure HTTPS context. Speech recognition can also be wrong.\nIf speech recognition works Use it as a convenience for transcript reflection. It may misunderstand accents, children, multilingual speech, atypical speech, quiet voices, noise, and ordinary pronunciation variation.\nIf speech recognition does not work You can still use prompts, voice playback, manual notes, custom words, practice history, export, and delete controls. A missing browser feature does not say anything about the person practicing.\nMicrophone note The Fondsites version does not record or persist raw audio. If the optional microphone meter is used, tracks are stopped after practice.\nBack to the Speech Therapy hub or open Speech Genie Practice Studio .\n","contentType":"speech-pathology","date":"2026-05-24","permalink":"/speech-pathology/speech-therapy/browser-support/","section":"speech-pathology","site":"Fondsites","tags":["speech therapy","home practice","speech-language pathology"],"title":"Browser Support"},{"content":"A cue is a small support that helps attention land on the target. A cue is not a lecture, a verdict, or a reason to interrupt every sentence.\nSupportive cue shapes Model once, then wait. Offer a choice: \u0026ldquo;Want to try that one again or move on?\u0026rdquo; Praise effort and strategy, not perfection. Use visual or tactile cues only if a professional has shown you how. Stop when the learner is tired or frustrated. Pressure cues to replace Replace \u0026ldquo;Say it right\u0026rdquo; with \u0026ldquo;Let\u0026rsquo;s try one careful practice turn.\u0026rdquo; Replace \u0026ldquo;You know this\u0026rdquo; with \u0026ldquo;This one is hard today. We can slow it down.\u0026rdquo; Replace public correction with a private routine. Speech Genie fit Speech Genie can provide prompts and notes, but a caregiver still decides whether the moment is supportive.

It should not become a full-time correction habit.\nThe useful pattern Pick one target or strategy. Choose a level that is achievable today: sound, syllable, word, phrase, sentence, conversation, communication repair, or AAC use. Practice for a short time. End while the learner still has energy. Write one practical note. What to avoid Correcting every conversation. Practicing during fatigue, conflict, embarrassment, or public pressure. Using speech recognition as proof of clinical accuracy. Storing names, dates of birth, diagnoses, school names, or recordings in casual tools. Better questions Ask the SLP what target, cue, practice level, session length, and stop rule to use. Ask how to know whether a word is ready to move into phrases or conversation.\nBack to the Speech Therapy hub or open Speech Genie Practice Studio .\n","contentType":"speech-pathology","date":"2026-05-24","permalink":"/speech-pathology/speech-therapy/how-home-practice-works/","section":"speech-pathology","site":"Fondsites","tags":["speech therapy","home practice","speech-language pathology"],"title":"How Home Practice Works"},{"content":"A practice log should make the next session easier.
