Before joining the Talk to Me program, my son who at the time was 2 could recite the ABC, count 1-30 and will identify single noun words. I was worried that he wasn’t making sentences until I watched a video of Ming talking about children who can do these things but are not making sentences, he explained that they don’t know language can be used to communicate and therefore play can be used to build up their language skills.
My experience working with Ming has been very interesting, it has taught me patience with my child, I help him to build up his language through structured play and promoting expressing language. Importantly screen time has reduced or he watches children's programs that help with language development.
6 months after we started the program, my son is more expressive, he imitates more sentences, and his sentences and language comprehension have increased. I have also learnt not to remote control with my voice but to allow him to listen, think and respond to tasks.
Advice to parents is to keep at it, with lots of patience and love, using every moment as an Avenue to learn, play and enjoy. For example, when we go for a walk, we try to say what we see, I see a dog, I see a flower. Just play and lots of fun. I also learnt to let the positives encourage me. Thank you Ming for your help, constructive feedback and consistency.

My son has progressed a lot after joining Ming’s course compared to when he joined physical speech theraphy class. All of the methods that Ming used were effective and as parents we also learn new skills. Can’t wait to join other classes 😊

I notices my son's speech delay at 18months. He did not point, no babbling, just "mama" and "dada" in vocabulary and limited eye contact, which I tend to believe was caused by too much TV in COVID times. I tried so many online courses, and YouTube recommendations which were very generic like "talk to your child more" or "read books together", that were not working...
And then when my son was 2.4 years I found Agents of Speech YouTube and from the first video on how to eliminate hand pulling I knew this was very different, practical, clear, and effective! I purchased the Speech Delay Micro-Course and was blown away by how well Ming explains how to actually teach language to your child.
Then I learned about the Talk to Me 8 week program which is something I cannot recommend enough. Clear plan, clear tasks and clear success criteria AND so much support from Ming, team and community of parents! My toddler started repeating words on week 5!
Currently at 2.8 years his active vocabulary is 60+ words and starts to combine, and is repeating words back. I am considering to join AOS coaching program to continue this success and get guided help on building vocabulary and get to actual talking. This is AMAZING program, and I highly recommend it as it takes the guess work out, no need to google stuff every night worrying - Ming and team will help you and your child.

Before joining Talk-to-me program, my son could only say ‘Baba’, and no other words. We struggled in teaching him. After following Ming’s teaching video on and off for 3 months, he finally said the first word ‘open’ , we were so happy.
After saying the first word, my son seems to understand our instructions better. We continue to teach him using Ming’s talk and play routines, he finally take the initiative to say ‘Mama’ to me for the first time and other two word sentences such as ‘Good morning’ ‘Mama Happy’ ‘Mama Sorry’ and sing the nursery rhymes to me.
There is no words to describe my feelings when I heard my son talking to me with good eye contact. I’m thankful that I have found Ming’s course and follow through despite facing challenges. I would share with fellow parent, please do not give up when your child does respond well when you teach them. They will slowly progress and just be more patient with them.

Hi all, I wanted to share feedback for the 8-week course and a thank you note to Ming He is a blessing to every parent concerned with a speech-delayed toddler. His methodological techniques helped my 2.5-year-old from no repeated words to frequent single words communication
How was Your Child Before Finding Us?
Before joining Ming, my baby boy used to pull hands for every little communication. He hardly used any words apart from ABCs and numbers that he learned watching TV. He wouldn't call me Mumma and his father. Just hand-pulling was his comfort zone. He would pull and take us to want he wanted He used lot of words but single time with no context. He wouldn't use them in communication
Your Experience Working with Us?
We joined Ming for a 8 week course. It was a blessing in disguise for us. My son's graph has been upwards since joining him. He started using words in correct context and repeatedly which he lacked before He started calling me mumma and his father dadda and also telling his name Ming feedback is like in person guidance. I regularly shared vidoes of the daily tasks with him and he will share the feedback and i could actually implement it and see results
What are the Results Now?
We are still with Ming. Currently he has started to club words like open door, red car etc There still is a lot of work required for him to join words and I am sure Ming will guide us through
Anything Else You want to Share with a Fellow Worried Parent?
Just dedicate 15-20 min daily religiously to your child and Do try Ming 8 week course. It's absolutely worth it. His techniques are very method driven which helps the child pick up language. I can say this as my personal experience Lastly thank you Ming for the amazing work you are doing for worried and concerned parents like us

I watched many videos of Ming on YouTube before buying both the micro course and the AOS Introduction course. I loved how his videos were simple and straightforward and very helpful. Many videos I have come across before Ming’s were complicated and not very encouraging and didn’t provide structured solution to how to go about ‘solving’ or addressing the issues my son had. After joining the Agents of Speech Facebook group I felt that I’m not alone in this and found so many parents who are struggling like us or who had success stories that gave me hope. I have to say that i’m still going through the micro course and haven’t finished all the courses i bought yet but I’m optimistic, i already saw some improvement after doing the suggestions Ming had like how to get them to sit down and focus, how to show my son how many activities we are going to do so he doesn’t get bored and lose focus..I am so glad I found Agents of Speech and i encourage everyone to try it out ♥️

How was Your Child Before Finding Us?
Answer: My little one was 23 months when I found out about Ming's agents of speech course. I was first hesitant to enrol not just because of financial constraints but also because I have questions running in my mind. How it is possible for a non-speech therapist or an untrained person would help her child develop his language? My son can communicate and follow directions but more of bubbling and a lot of alien words before we start the course. I just don't know what to do.
Your Experience Working with Us?
Ming is very dedicated and passionate about his job. Despite his busy schedules and a lot of videos submitted by parents asking for feedback, he will always make sure that he will review and give you feedback right away. He answers questions in a timely manner and he always makes himself available incase you have questions or clarification on the course. We got hiatus for about a month or so because of some illness. We got covid again. Then followed by another fever like every month. I was out of touch and wasn't able to send updates to Ming. He literally reaches out and asks how we are going with the course and if we need help. I was more inspired of doing it because I know I have strong support. Maybe if would have been a different therapist, things will be different.What are the Results Now?
Before we started, my son can only say mama (sometimes), daddy and a few words. We now have a lot added. It is not yet a sentence but means so much to us parents because we know our efforts worked! I know we are on the right track. We just have to be consistent. Plus my son for the 1st time can say 2 words (mommy dede (milk). Gosh. I literally cried 😭. Tears of joy).
Anything Else You want to Share with a Fellow Worried Parent: To my fellow parents, this course is not a walk-in-the-park thing. You will encounter a lot of humps just like how I almost give up on our 1st week because my temper in teaching a child is very short. I got angry easily if he doesn't follow. Not until I fully understood the course with Ming's help. Make every activity whether is playtime, fun time, reading time a learning experience. Get what the child's interest. Let the child lead which means whatever interests him/her pick up from there. Just ask Ming how you can make that activity a learning experience. Just an example when I submitted Ming a video of our activity (open container activity), my son was playing the harmonica and gave it to me. It was never part of our activity for the day. Ming saw that part and instantly told me what I can do to make that a learning activity while my son is having fun playing the harmonica. We may be far from the perfect situation, but this course is a good guide for parents like us who is trying to help their son speak and communicate. I can not wait for the time when I have to write another feedback again and post a video when my little one can speak well. For now, we just have to trust the process. Here's a photo of us when we 1st started the course. Thank you Ming for your help!

I bought the micro program as a beginner. The videos were short but provided encouragement and techniques.

Words cannot express how much Ming's 8 week course has helped me and my son, Arri!!!! I love that he breaks things down into simple gestures to act out a word so my son learns the meaning of it by doing it. No other speech therapist has EVER showed me or my son how to teach language via play and gestures.
My preverbal son's is now trying to pronounce letter sounds and able to say 2 words. This is a child who was written off by many therapists as not being able to say anything or learn actions. Anyone considering the course and has an older child (11 years+) --- please try it and do the 15 minutes a day as Ming instructs.
My son is listening more, sitting nicely for work sessions and gesturing to communicate (big for a child who would cry to get attention). Ming gives helpful feedback on your submitted videos so you know what you did incorrectly or how to move forward to the next week's activities.
Virtual speech therapy is a game changer for any parent who wants to work 1-on-1 with his/her child and you don't have the time to drive back/forth to a therapist office. Thank you, Agents of Speech, for giving me hope that my son's voice will get stronger, and more words will come out as he progresses.

Although my 3 year old knew his ABCs, and words, such as shapes and colors, he was unable to communicate with intent. He just repeated nouns. He was speech delayed and, therefore, falling behind socially. After what seemed like endless searches through YouTube videos, I found one of Ming's videos. It provided concrete information and a step by step starting point on how to teach and engage my son. I tried it and it worked! I purchased all of the courses, which included the video consultation with Ming. I found it comforting to speak with him and like that he responds very quickly to my emails when I have questions. The courses teach the parent how to be the speech therapist, at home. Home is where children spend most of their time. Although my son is still behind his peers, he now is able to express himself in 3-4 words sentences l. Moreover, he is able to answer questions and keep a mini conversation. This is a vast improvement from the silence or non-related situational self "noun talk/babble" he was displaying before. Agents of Speech gave us hope, especially in a time where we were put on two year waiting lists for the local in person therapies. That is too long to wait, especially, since he is developing, now. I no longer feel alone on this journey. Thank you, Ming!!

My 3 year old child who babbled, made sounds but spoke very few clear words can now clearly say, "Give me XXX.", with confidence via the exercises we went through with Ming's guidance. Perhaps this doesn't sound big, but it was a breakthrough not only for my daughter, but also for us as parents in terms of how we can guide her to start communicating verbally.
My daughter is also attending in-person speech therapy, but to be frank, we have yet to see concrete results. Ming's guidance has actually led to a concrete result and I think it's because he is not only guiding the child, he is more guiding the parents how to communicate with the child first, so that the child would be more willing to communicate with us.
What I appreciated most about Ming's guidance was his quick feedback; he would point out what is going well, what needed more work and where we should go from here. The instructions were clear.
Being both working parents, we have sometimes slipped from doing the 'homework' that Ming has told us to do from time to time but we always come back to his exercises, as we have seen results. I plan to keep on continue my daughter communication journey with Ming's exercises.

I'm so glad I stumbled onto Agents of Speech! My 3 year old had very little words at 2 and was just starting to "label" with the help of a speech therapist. After 6 months we enrolled our son into preschool. While this has helped him socially, he still wasn't quite where the other kids are. He still isn't actually. BUT with the micro course, YouTube videos, etc my kid is now able to label animals, objects etc even I've never heard of! For instance, a kookaburra??? (It's a bird btw). He is also responding to us calling him more and using 2 to 3+ word sentences! This is huge progress for us considering he wouldn't even look in our direction before. I can't thank Ming and AOS enough and we are super excited to see our son grow and learn more everyday!!

Before enrolling to Ming's Talk to Me course, Penny could never tell us what she wanted. Although she could say a lot of nouns (names of shapes, animals, colors etc.) she was limited in terms of verbs that she knew how to use.
We were very fortunate to have found Ming online and work with him to improve these areas in Penny's language development.
Ming's instructions were very clear and he was always available to answer all our questions. He worked hand-in-hand with us, worried parents, and always gave out a positive vibe which was very helpful in keeping us motivated despite the difficulties.
After 2 months of working with Ming, Penny could already tell us utterances such as "Mommy, open {food, door, box} please." or "Mommy turn off light please." whenever she wants something done. She's also very good at imitating our words now, thus, we could teach her more verbs/action words that are critical in sentence building.
She could already sing along with us as well with prompt. There's still a lot more to improve, but Ming's Talk to Me program is real good starting point. I only wished I found this out sooner.
If your child has speech/language delay, I'd highly recommend working with Ming. He'd teach you to fish and not just give you the fish so you can be better help your child. And this is thus far the most effective way of teaching speech delayed children.

My kid is speech delayed and I’m still in the beginning stages of following the course and working on strategies with my kid. Before joining micro-course I watched lot of Ming’s videos on YouTube and found them easy to understand, I really liked the steps by step approach. It is definitely difficult to implement with kid but not impossible. Ming’s course are affordable and informative. I still need to try consistently all the strategies from the course with kid yet but I have a positive feeling that continuous effort with Ming’s strategies will definitely help for speech development.

It is mentally and emotionally very challenging for parents to get their speech delayed child to speak. From time to time it seemed to me like I was facing an unachievable task. Until I found Ming and Agents of Speech. Since I purchased "Word Combiners" online course, I have felt like I have a road map and support, that I am guided by. The journey has been fascinating as I have seen how my little one´s speech develops with every week. Ming and Agents of Speech, a thousand times thank you from the bottom of my heart.

We are grandparents of a little guy whose speech is delayed. We wanted to better understand the causes of delayed speech and what we could do to help support the parents. Ming is quite simply the best. We took his course and then booked an individual session so that we could ask questions. Ming is very knowledgeable and very kind. We are so happy that we were able to find him. We feel that after the course, we are able to be a better support to our grandson's parents as well as to our grandson. Best of all, we are seeing great improvement in our little guy's speech in a short time.

Hello, My son is born July2019 just before the pandemic hit, so most of the time while he is growing up as a toddler we are stocked inside our rooms with less exposure to other people and less communication but more tv and cellphone. At 2, my son was diagnosed with speech delayed at first it was depressing but with the help of agents of speech mini courses and a lot of talks + therapy we have so far overcome the non talking stage. I am very grateful with the agent of speech, the mommas on messenger GC. They have become my positive affirmations despite all the side comments. From Zero words to 1-2 words. Now he sings, dances, play and rhyme with me. Thank you for all the help and support. To my fellow parents, diagnosis does not mean our children are anything less what more important is what we do to help them.
