This week, G-W Speech-Language Pathologist Alyssa Malone and Special Education Teacher Taylor Wood had the honor of speaking to aspiring educators in Kelly Fagan’s Introduction to Communication Disorders course at the University at Albany.

Their presentation featured a Q&A session, during which they covered topics such as:
