Listen2Learn - Success for life through listening and spoken language.

Listen2learn is a Western Sydney based therapy service meeting the needs of children with a hearing loss and their families. All programs are built upon Auditory-Verbal Therapy (AVT) practices. Each programmed service is designed to meet the needs of individual families and children. The ultimate goal is to have hearing become part of your child's personality.

Auditory-Verbal Therapy: "Helping children use their hearing and listening potential to communicate through spoken language." (Warren Estabrooks, 2001)

Auditory-Verbal parents have dreams for their child: learning how to make life a listening experience in order to reach their natural potential. Children learn to use listening as the primary sense for learning and interacting with the hearing world. Parents learn how to be their child’s primary language teacher.

Listen2learn offers:

  • Provide immediate practical support for babies, children, and their families to access their residual hearing in order to communicate for life.
