I just wanted to update you on how much max is still signing! It's crazy how many more signs he has started doing even though we are no longer attending classes! Even though he is now talking a lot more the signs help us understand what he is saying ... What an amazing thing it is that you do! I will never forget how much you have done for us!
Max's Mum, September 2017

Here are some really lovely quotes from the feedback forms I received from the Autumn 2014 term. THANK YOU SO MUCH! "I find coming to the classes very enjoyable. Emma is a super teacher and it's easy to learn with her super and fun signing". "Have really enjoyed our term with Emma, she's a great teacher". "Thank you so much for adding such a lovely hour to our week". "Just thank you for a lovely group". "Love it, so glad I came!". "Emma is very friendly and welcoming". "Emma is very friendly, great with the children and explains the signs well".

As Grandma to Isabelle and Nicholas, I have to admit to being sceptical when Emma announced that she was taking our first granddaughter to TinyTalk classes - I was quite dubious about the practical value of teaching babies to sign. However I was amazed with the results when I saw Isabelle signing, and it proved to be invaluable when I was looking after the grandchildren as I could communicate with them and understand what they needed (long before they could speak ) e.g. something to eat /drink/more etc . This saved many moments of tears on their part and frustration on mine! Isabelle's Grandpa was also worried that speech development would be slower because of the signing, but this was definitely not the case. We would both highly recommend TinyTalk to any new and prospective parents and grandparents.
