In 2009, Paul and Elisa came into contact with TinyEYE Canada. There they saw how effective online speech therapy worked and how big an impact it had on children and families. They both thought: the Netherlands should get to know this too. They adapted the programme for the Dutch situation, together with language scientists from the University of Groningen. Meanwhile, TinyEYE Europe has grown into an online platform where independent speech therapists (zzp'ers) use modern software to provide therapy to clients throughout the country.


TinyEYE can help with many different speech and language problems. For example, we can help with articulation problems, where the pronunciation of certain sounds does not go well. We can also help with language development disorders, where language development lags behind peers. In addition, we can offer support for voice problems, such as hoarseness or vocal fatigue.
Furthermore, TinyEYE can also help with swallowing problems, for example if there is choking or difficulty swallowing food. And TinyEYE can also provide support with reading and spelling problems, for example by improving phonological skills.
But not only children can come to TinyEYE, adults can also be helped with, for example, stuttering or aphasia, which involves problems with speaking, understanding or writing after a stroke.
