Based in London (Greenwich)

Speech and Language Therapy Assistant Practitioner

My name is Laraib Fayyaz, and I am a Speech and Language Therapy Assistant Practitioner at Magic Words. Growing up, I always knew I wanted a career where I could help individuals with speech and language difficulties. Effective communication skills are vital in every profession, but as a SaLTAP, I can use these skills to significantly impact people’s lives.

In my free time, I like cooking, travelling, reading and listening to music.

My favourite word is “welcome” – it’s a word we often learn first when discovering a new language. We use it so often and it makes the person feel gladly received and included. Being welcomed, no matter who you are, is of great importance.
