Testimonials
“This course has allowed me to set goals which I have run alongside my appraisal and will help me better support my student this year.
Teaching Assistant
“It is helpful to get a different perspective for college.
Advisory Teacher
“This training would be good as an introduction to new staff with little understanding of deafness.
Other Position
“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.
