Had late speech twin now 7yrs

Thanks readers for and Drs for reading my post. One of our daughter's a twin is 7yrs old 8 year's this October our daughter has been with a speech therapist private for over 4yrs now our daughter had late speech development has learning difficulties had at 6yrs old her tested by a child educaiton pyscologist she can now talk 10-12 word sentences now but still has expressive language delay sequence language difficulties our daughter though is reading and sounds out words really well our daughter is number 5&6 children in our family our other daughter the twin is bright and doesn't have expressive language difficulties As I said our daughter can talk but has sequential sequencing difficulties. Our daughter with her twin sister are in year 2 at School we live Australia. Our daughter that has speech therapy privately and receives Education support at School plus we do education computer programs with her every day after school our daughter wants to learn has fantastic concentration. We buy the education material these education games make them say the word type the word etc they are for English and Math's our daughter seems to learn visually and is a good using the computer we have found this over the last 2yrs the most beneficial for her extra speech and learning needs People start exploring other ways as you feel it's slow just with speech therapy especially when you have been faithful for 4yrs with speech therapy. Our oly way to help you child it seems is to pay for all the extra services. Our daughter's education needs. Our daughter keeps improving but is behind her peers with expressive language and we just want to do all we can to keep her progressing at her pace but also to a level she can achieve in life also.
