Useful tool in teaching how to correctly pronounce S… but the real work involves in reminding the children to use it in every day speech
Vicky –
It broke after the first use and it’s too pricey to justify its flimsiness..

I’m an adult in my 40’s who has had a lisp forever. At some point I saw myself speaking in a mirror and decided I just needed to do something about it. No video or training seemed to help me get the tongue position right. Anyone who’s had a lisp knows it’s difficult to be shown the proper position of the tongue relative to the teeth to make the sound. There’s a huge difference in someone showing you how to make an “s” sound and then actually using the newly-formed sound in a sentence or conversation. It feels awkward and you feel stupid doing it, so you just largely give up.Anyway, this shows you where to put your tongue and then you practice the positioning with the tool in your mouth part of the time and then practice using without it. Then you practice with it, and without it – over and over. For the most part, this will show you how to form an “s” the first time you put it in your mouth. It’s now up to you to practice it. It’s a pretty simple looking thing, but it does work. I do very well today, and am less self-conscious. Occasionally, I get busy and lazy and start using the old lisp “s” position, but at least I’m aware and can get back to making the sound correctly. It’s not an issue with the tool – merely with my level of self-discipline at times. Heck, I’m over 40 years old and the “new” s sound does feel awkward sometimes still, but the more I’ve practiced, the better it has gotten. If I had this tool as a kid, I doubt I’d have any issues at all today.Now, while I think this tool is exceptional, it is also very expensive. This tool is very simple and could be fabricated by an inventive person who can’t afford this.
