How often and for how long should students use the program?

It is important that students complete activities in a quiet, distraction-free environment or with headphones on. There is a lot of careful listening that is required in the program so distractions must be kept to a minimum!  

We suggest you:

Keep sessions short, preferably no more than 15-20 minutes at a time. Make sessions shorter if students have difficulty concentrating due to young age or learning difficulties. Do not let students use the program for more than this duration in a sitting, even if they want to. A great rule of thumb is to finish a session when a student would be happy to do one more activity.

Make sessions frequent, preferably once per day but at least once every two days. This will ensure information is retained and students have an opportunity to develop automaticity in their skills.
