Fluency (Stuttering) :  The flow of verbal expression is abnormal and significantly interferes with communication between the student and a partner.

 

Hearing Loss:  A hearing loss results in a speech/language disorder and significantly affects educational performance.

Language:  Comprehension and expression of spoken language significantly interfere with classroom performance.

 

Voice:  The student’s voice is characterized by persistent and defective quality, pitch or loudness.
