В процессе овладения речью ребенок осваивает не только лексику и грамматику родного языка, но и фонетику, которая имеет огромное значение для полноценного общения в современном мире. В семидесятые годы ХХ-ого века логопеды Хадсон и Паден предложили новый подход к лечению дефектов речи, основанный на врожденной способности детей к подражанию, которая состоит из 2-х основных циклов: а) обратить внимание ребенка на неверное произношение и предложить повторить за учителем несколько слов, которые отличаются лишь одной буквой (это упражнение получило название «пары»); б) предложить ребенку повторить за учителем непохожие друг на друга слова, обращая внимание на правильное произнесение части слова, в которой встречаются типичные ошибки (это упражнение получило название « аудио атака»). В современной логопедической науке данный метод широко используется в модифицированном виде и дает положительные результаты даже в самых сложных случаях нарушений речи.
