Hello my name is Alex.
I qualified as a Speech and Language Therapist after completing my degree at the University of Pretoria in South Africa.
I have experience working in specialist school settings and am passionate about supporting children and young people with Special Educational Needs. I believe in building strong partnerships with families, educators and other professionals to create meaningful opportunities for communication and participation. One of the most rewarding parts of my role is seeing children and young people grow in confidence and find their voice, whether through spoken language, signing or assistive technology.
The Words First value that resonates most with me is keeping the student’s best interests at the heart of all our decisions. I believe that by placing each student’s individual strengths, needs and wellbeing at the centre of our practice, we create inclusive, empowering environments where they can thrive as their authentic selves. This commitment ensures that the support we provide is compassionate, personalised and respectful of neurodiversity.
