Testimonials
“I have learned so much from this training. I feel confident in supporting and understanding the subject. We have a child in our class that is really benefiting from some of the strategies that have been implemented due to this training.
Teaching Assistant
“The training has had an impact on outcomes by helping me develop a better understanding on how to help and develop my pupil’s learning especially in communication. It has also given me different activities to try and help them focus more.
Teaching Assistant
“Before this course I had little to no understanding of deafness and the impacts it has on children and adults. However, after completing the course, I now feel very confident when it comes to identifying the needs of a deaf child and can implement appropriate strategies in order to support them in different areas of needs and in different environments. The different case studies have given me a good understanding of the feelings and views of deaf individuals and have expressed the importance of including those within planning and reflective activities.
Teaching Assistant
“Even though I have a deaf son, I was confident with hearing aids etc however it has helped me become more aware of the importance of how I can make the classroom a deaf friendly environment.
