    I cannot express how grateful and rewarding my experience with Brooklyn Letters has been. Her tutor Ms. Daria is so knowledgeable, amazing, kind and awesome.

    We could not be happier with the services Valerie provided! She is very thoughtful and knowledgeable and provided significant guidance to support our daughter's speech development outside of our scheduled sessions. She established … More a great working relationship with her, and she will definitely be missed! Your business model is amazing and it was an absolute pleasure working with Valerie. I've referred your organization and Valerie to the Executive Director of our daughter's school and friends/colleagues who are in need of speech therapy services.

    Christina was absolutely wonderful. She went out of her way to win my son over and it worked. He looked forward to her visits and his speech improved so much under her care. She was super flexible and it’s clear she truly cares. We adore … More Christina and we’re going to miss her. Almost sad he improved so much! She’s simply amazing and we can’t say enough how great she is. I would recommend her services to anyone and everyone, without hesitation. Thank you so much for connecting us with her!
  • Summer SEIT Services for Preschoolers on Long Island, Brooklyn Letters Heather Liljengren ★★★★★ a year ago
    We cannot say enough good things about Effie, the ASL teacher, who was so engaged and effective with our 2 year old daughter from the very first session! Effie gladly included our whole family in the sessions! Her expertise and fantastic … More personality gave our daughter a way to communicate that she was so desperately seeking. The coordinators at Brooklyn Letters were so helpful and communicative…I would highly recommend their services!
  • Summer SEIT Services for Preschoolers on Long Island, Brooklyn Letters Brigid Bower ★★★★★ 11 months ago
    Samantha Dalmas was fantastic! We saw her for a feeding therapy evaluation and while she doesn’t think my daughter needs more feeding therapy sessions at this time, but she gave me lots of tips to try. If my daughter's doctors want … More to see more progress at her next appointment, I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out to Samantha again.
  • Summer SEIT Services for Preschoolers on Long Island, Brooklyn Letters Duygu BaÅŸaran ★★★★★ 11 months ago
    Brooklyn Letters was recommended to me through a friend's speech therapist friend in NJ. The articulation evaluation for my daughter went well. We were pleased with Kristin's services.
  • Summer SEIT Services for Preschoolers on Long Island, Brooklyn Letters Kelley Peters-Patel ★★★★★ a year ago
    Melissa was wonderful. Our daughter warmed to her immediately and by the time she left, had already started "practicing" some of the techniques Melissa had shown her. I will not hesitate at all to reach out to Melissa again, should … More the need arise.
  • Summer SEIT Services for Preschoolers on Long Island, Brooklyn Letters R Elmore ★★★★★ a year ago
    Aileen was INCREDIBLY helpful to us, both in assessing possible origins of my grandson's food aversions, as well as informing us of various available interventions to consider.
    I can’t thank you and Brooklyn Letters enough for connecting
    … More us with Aileen. In all our feeding therapy journey we have not gotten anything near the kind of benefit that we did from her. Her knowledge, professionalism, and responsiveness have put us on the path of progress with my grandson and has also made us feel genuinely well cared for.
  • Summer SEIT Services for Preschoolers on Long Island, Brooklyn Letters Christine Weiher ★★★★★ 2 years ago
    We were amazed with Allison! She met my son at 2 1/2 years old, not speaking much at all, and over a computer, and she was able to develop a bond and friendship, so much so that he would look forward to his weekly computer time with Allison. … More I was not sure how the speech therapy would go- but we are so happy that we tried it out and continued. It allowed my son to gain confidence in his speech, make a new friend :), and also give him the skills and a bit of understanding of how to shape his mouth or where to place his tongue to make the proper sounds. We were extremely happy with Allison- she was fantastic to work with.
  • Summer SEIT Services for Preschoolers on Long Island, Brooklyn Letters Andrea Saffady ★★★★★ 2 years ago
    My sessions with Karen have been extremely helpful. My speech has improved tremendously. In fact, I just finished 2 hours of conducting interviews with a consulting client via MS Teams and I have an upcoming conference call. Both my … More neurologist and neurosurgeon remarked about how good my speech is. Much of the day it is perfect, although I still have some rough spots when I get tired or speak too quickly. One of my granddaughters is a speech pathology student at Ithaca College. She sat in on 2 sessions while she was home for winter break, and she was very impressed with Karen.
  • Summer SEIT Services for Preschoolers on Long Island, Brooklyn Letters Jacob B ★★★★★ 4 years ago
    We were delighted with Christie. First, and most importantly, our son made great strides under her guidance. So great, that we felt he no longer needed help! She was incredibly patient and kind with him and our son really responded to … More her. Christie was also great with me and my wife. She provided thorough and informative updates on our son's progress and which exercises she was using with him, so we could reinforce what she was teaching him. All in all, we had a fabulous experience with Christie and would highly recommend her.
  • Summer SEIT Services for Preschoolers on Long Island, Brooklyn Letters Jessica C ★★★★★ a year ago

    Theo was fantastic with our 4yo son. We were very worried that his progress would fall off when we had to switch to remote sessions, but Theo kept our son happy and engaged through the screen. Highly highly recommend!
  • Summer SEIT Services for Preschoolers on Long Island, Brooklyn Letters Samantha Packard ★★★★★ 3 years ago
    We've been working with Theo from Brooklyn Letters for close to 4 months now and the results are apparent; our daughter has vastly improved her speech in a relatively short amount of time. We make "Theo Day" a celebration … More in our house with pancakes for breakfast, and the enthusiasm is matched in the sessions. Theo is fun, patient, professional, and caring, and he gives us the tools to take the lessons beyond the session. Thank you Theo, and Brooklyn Letters, for helping our daughter express herself.
  • Summer SEIT Services for Preschoolers on Long Island, Brooklyn Letters Travis Ricca ★★★★★ 3 years ago

  • Summer SEIT Services for Preschoolers on Long Island, Brooklyn Letters Enrico Bermudez ★★★★★ 3 years ago
    Cathy has been excellent with us and our son. We will sorely miss her. He has improved significantly with Cathy’s help. Cathy was a true partner with us, especially as we pursued additional help through our son’s school system.
  • Summer SEIT Services for Preschoolers on Long Island, Brooklyn Letters Kayne Elisabeth Wilk ★★★★★ 4 years ago
    We really loved working with Alina, she is so fantastic. Patient yet firm, and determined the best course of action very clearly and succintly for us. And it all transitioned so well to Zoom as well. I will definitely be back in touch for … More services for our other child after summer break!

  • Summer SEIT Services for Preschoolers on Long Island, Brooklyn Letters susie tofte ★★★★★ 3 years ago
    The work that Allison P. did with our daughter over the years has been invaluable to us. Our daughter had such a good relationship with Allison, and it allowed them to work really well together - even remotely these past 6 months. This … More year, Allison went above and beyond by helping us throughout the neuropsych eval we did, trying to re-open our daughter's IEP at her school, and eventually landing her at our chosen school. She was in contact with our daughter's teachers, with the neuropsychologist, and made herself available as a reference to speak on behalf of our daughter's learning differences.
    Allison stopped by our house last week to give our daughter cupcakes and say goodbye, and I literally cried with appreciation for what an amazing speech therapist she has been. She has been our daughter's biggest champion. The new families that she will work with this year are lucky to have her.
  • Summer SEIT Services for Preschoolers on Long Island, Brooklyn Letters Alicia Perez-Katz ★★★★★ 4 years ago
    Sydney was great! Our son was sad to end his sessions with her, which says a lot. We appreciated her honest assessment of his skill level, and he now has materials to self monitor and practice. Thank you!
  • Summer SEIT Services for Preschoolers on Long Island, Brooklyn Letters Kristin Ames ★★★★★ 4 years ago
    Our experience with Theo was terrific. Theo was great with my son. He developed a positive relationship with him based on sincerity, respect, trust and a deep personal connection. In their lessons, Theo was encouraging, creative and kind. … More He helped our son understand how to differentiate the sounds he made when he spoke, and gave him great exercises to practice every week between lessons. Our son was sorry to have the lessons come to an end, but recognized that Theo had helped him as much as possible and it was time for him to stop. Theo explained to him (and us) how to keep working to get the last 5%, and encouraged him to keep working on the exercises on his own. I have recommended Theo to another parent who noticed my son's improvement and inquired for her own son.
    We are all grateful to have gotten to know Theo, and we greatly appreciate all the work he did to help our son.

    "I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Michelle Macroy-Higgins. We are extremely pleased with her work with our daughter. I was so grateful for my daughter to have a speech therapist who is a researcher (specialty in late … More talkers), graduate professor and practitioner. Her expertise was clearly evident in our conversations and work with our daughter. She was very responsive to my questions and often sent articles and other materials about language development that I found helpful. Thankfully, my daughter's speech improved tremendously. Michelle developed such a warm relationship with my daughter. My daughter was always excited to see Michelle and would greet her at the door with a big hug. Lastly, I would add that Michelle always demonstrated empathy with me as a mother who was initially worried about her daughter's language development. I could go on and on about how pleased we were with Michelle's work."

    Alexa has been an enthusiastic, reliable, well prepared and caring teacher for our 6 year old daughter. She has been able to improve and increase our daughter's confidence lesson by lesson with patience and competence; through varied … More and productive didactic practice. Alexa has engaged our daughter in several activities that always kept her motivated and eager to learn literacy. My wife and I, both of us are educators, feel so fortunate to have had the opportunity to observe Alexa's pedagogical skills. Alexa has had a big impact on our daughter literacy growth. Thank you Brooklyn Letters!
  • Summer SEIT Services for Preschoolers on Long Island, Brooklyn Letters Lily Alt ★★★★★ 4 years ago
    We were absolutely DELIGHTED with Marsha's services. She was wonderful. We found her to be kind, fun, engaging, very knowledgeable. She provided us with clear instructions and additional written handouts each week. She engaged our … More son with different techniques and toys, and showed us how to use her techniques when we were interacting with him. I actually just texted her on Saturday - Our son finally said "more" - one of the target words we had been working on with her. It was a total joy to hear, and I had to share it with her - she wrote back immediately to congratulate us. I am so appreciative of her expertise, and wish we could have seen her for longer. I recommended her to another family in our neighborhood who is looking for a speech therapist.

Summer SEIT Services for Preschoolers on Long Island, Brooklyn Letters

Who We Support

We proudly serve a wide range of preschoolers with varying developmental needs. Our team adapts support to match your child’s strengths and challenges.

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

We provide structured and sensory-aware instruction to help children with ASD build communication, social-emotional, and adaptive skills. Our SEITs tailor interventions to each child’s needs, working on transitions, play, and peer interactions.

Speech and Language Delays

Children with expressive or receptive language challenges benefit from our language-rich, interactive sessions. SEITs use modeling, visuals, and routines to promote vocabulary, comprehension, and expression.

Attention and Behavioral Challenges

Whether diagnosed with ADHD or simply experiencing focus issues, we teach self-regulation, impulse control, and sustained attention. Our strategies reduce frustration and build success one small step at a time.

Sensory Processing Disorders

We help children with sensory sensitivities adapt to daily tasks through structured activities and predictable routines. Collaborating with OTs, we integrate sensory-friendly techniques into every session.

Developmental Delays

For children with global delays, our team focuses on building foundational skills—communication, play, motor, and cognition—through engaging, developmentally appropriate activities.

Twice Exceptional (2e) Learners

We also support preschoolers who are gifted but struggle with emotional regulation, learning differences, or social challenges. Our SEITs nurture both advanced abilities and areas needing support.

Our SEITs are trained to recognize and respond to each child’s unique learning profile.

Summer SEIT Services for Preschoolers on Long Island, Brooklyn Letters

Our Specialty Areas of Expertise

We go beyond general support to deliver expert guidance in key developmental areas. Our SEITs are trained to provide targeted, high-quality instruction.

School Readiness

We prepare children for classroom expectations by targeting attention, following directions, and adapting to group routines. Children practice taking turns, transitioning between tasks, and participating in circle time. Our goal is to build confidence and competence before kindergarten. We make readiness fun and achievable through games and stories.

Social-Emotional Learning

We teach emotional regulation, empathy, and social problem-solving. Children learn how to identify and express feelings appropriately, build peer relationships, and navigate group dynamics. We use role-playing, visuals, and modeling to teach key skills. Parents receive guidance on reinforcing these lessons at home.

Language and Communication

We build vocabulary, sentence structure, and conversational skills using naturalistic teaching. Techniques like modeling, prompting, and visual aids support children in understanding and expressing themselves. Sessions are playful and interactive to encourage spontaneous communication. We adapt our language level to meet your child where they are.

Behavior Management

We address challenging behaviors using positive, proactive strategies. SEITs help children understand rules, make good choices, and develop coping tools for frustration. Behavior plans are customized and consistent across settings. We collaborate with caregivers and therapists to create a united approach.

Motor Planning and Fine Motor Skills

Our SEITs incorporate movement and fine motor practice into everyday routines. Activities like drawing, building, and pretend play develop coordination and hand strength. We support children who struggle with self-help skills like dressing and feeding. Collaboration with OTs enhances outcomes.

These areas are carefully integrated into every session to meet your child’s needs holistically.

Techniques We Use

Our team uses a blend of evidence-based teaching strategies proven effective for young children with special needs. Each technique is personalized to match the child’s learning style.

DIR®/Floortime

This approach follows your child’s interests to foster emotional connection and communication. We get on your child’s level, play alongside them, and gently challenge them to grow. Floortime is especially effective for children with ASD and sensory sensitivities.

Visual Supports & Social Stories

We use pictures, schedules, and illustrated stories to help children understand expectations and navigate social situations. These tools reduce anxiety and promote independence. Visual supports are personalized for your child’s needs.

Positive Behavior Support (PBS)

PBS teaches alternative behaviors and emotional regulation through praise, structure, and clear expectations. It’s a gentle and empowering approach. We replace “no” with “here’s what to do instead.”

Structured Teaching (TEACCH)

We design structured environments and routines that make learning predictable and manageable. This is especially helpful for children with autism or anxiety. Clear boundaries and schedules reduce overwhelm.

We integrate these tools to create the most effective and enjoyable learning experience.

  • Following directions and participating in group activities.

  • Managing emotions and staying on task.

Our goal is to help your child walk into kindergarten proud, confident, and ready.
