The information was WONDERFUL and I greatly appreciate the presenter taking the time to share. It was not, however, applicable to my setting. At times, our multi-lingual evaluations are scheduled less than 24 hours prior to the evaluation and we are not given time to train the interpreter as if they arrive, they arrive at the same time as the family, and if they don't, we utilize a video interpreter.

I liked the way the presenter gave a detailed way to conduct a multilingual evaluation. I learned new information about about conducting a multilingual evaluation such as how one language can influence the other language and how even if a child is not speaking their heritage language that heritage language may influence their English. I learned ways to write reports and defend me not using a standardized assessment.

It was presented well, organized and concise. It helped me understand the importance of using both dynamic assessment, using the different interviews necessary, and the importance of using an interpreter as a monolingual SLP to get true picture of the child's abilities to determine if the child has just a difference or a true language disorder.

It was very helpful the way this course described that you have to acknowledge the way each language influenced the other. Also the recognition that standardized tests are inadequate even if given completely in the heritage language because of the lack of academic exposure in the heritage language.
