Nerd Nite Toronto Holiday Nerdtacular

Our Annual Holiday Nerdtacular is a Celebration of the Nerdy Child in All of Us.

Presentation 1: Sarah Reeves Aljas returns with one of Nerd Nite's most popular talks, to answer the burning question “Why Does Elmer Fudd Talk Like That?”

Ever wonder what's really going on with Elmer Fudd, Daffy Duck, Sylvester and Tweety's speech impediments? The ins and outs of how we produce sounds (a.k.a. talk) and the difficulties some have doing so.

Sarah Reeves Aljas has been a Speech-Language Pathologist for over 10 years, helping toddlers and school-aged children learn to talk and improving the way they talk. She has provided treatment for people locally as well as in NWT, Nunavut and Northern Ontario, both directly and through videoconferencing.
