The Spellers Method is a proprietary multidisciplinary approach that integrates occupational therapy, developmental optometry, and assistive technology to teach motor skills for spelling-based communication. Unlike approaches that focus on interpretation or mediation, the Spellers Method emphasizes speller autonomy—enabling nonspeakers and unreliable speakers to communicate fluently through spelling AS communication, meaning they control their own words rather than having their words interpreted by others.
Spellers Tampa believes that true communication transformation happens when the entire family understands and supports the speller's journey. Communication Partner Training and Coaching, At-Home Practice Coaching, and flexible service options ensure that parents and caregivers are equipped and empowered to nurture speller autonomy and authentic connection.
