“I know I said questions 1-3 I was only somewhat confident with; although I’m confident with the theory, I feel like I need more practice in person before I will be fairly/strongly confident. I look forward to implementing this training in my practice, which, due to the school I work at, is very child led.

“I absolutely love these training courses and get an awful lot out of them. I feel a lot more confident using smart goals and I really appreciate your support. I will use smart goals to support children to decrease levels of behaviour for them to recognise their feeling with specific, measurable, agreed, realistic time-based goals. Thank you for your help.

“This course has helped me work with a child in my class it has helped me communicate with him and helped him communicate with me.

“The training has given me a greater awareness of the social and emotional impact of deafness, and a greater appreciation of the educational challenges deaf students may face as a result of gaps in language, knowledge/abstract concepts. I also found the section explaining the different ways hearing losses are ascertained, and the biomechanics of the ear very interesting and it has given me greater confidence in the terminology I should use when describing a hearing loss or talking to a student with a hearing loss. Overall, I have found this course thoroughly interesting and would recommend it to any staff supporting deaf students.
