Follow Puneeth's ABA Journey:

Puneeth started ABA intervention at AP Singapore at the age of 3 years 3 months. Before ABA intervention, Puneeth’s attention was short and fleeting. He could not sustain sitting down for long, making learning difficult. His eye contact was also minimal, and he would either gesture or talk to himself without directing it to others.

As he was not communicating, he often did not get what he wanted. He would often bang his head, cry and scream, and throw a big tantrum when denied or when his toys were taken away, which is a considerable concern for his parents.

This series explores programs designed to help Puneeth reach his goals.

When Puneeth started, he had limited tolerance in waiting, denials, social and play skills. Communication to him was mainly pulling, grabbing, and crying when he was confused or when things did not go his way. In this video, our Senior Case Supervisor, Ms. Loh Li Ling (BA Psy), shares Puneeth’s baseline and challenges and progress after eight months of intervention at AP Singapore.

Eight months into his ABA journey, Puneeth has built tolerance and enjoys more social contact with his teachers and peers. He can also sustain attention in listening and attending to the class. Additionally, Puneeth can now communicate in simple sentences to express his needs instead of crying or throwing a tantrum.
