If only all teachers were like that! Glad you're enjoying the program, which sounds perfect for a high school student aspiring to be a doctor!<br /><br />RebeccaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227556965250402927.post-62584764896887748842011-07-01T21:08:50.412-05:002011-07-01T21:08:50.412-05:00Wow!

I always find that those who have children with disabilities have much greater understanding of handling people with disabilities.<br /><br />Speaking of Stethoscope, have you looked at Harris Communication's site? They have a selection of stethoscopes for hearing impaired here - http://www.harriscomm.com/equipment/stethoscopes.htmlRachelhttp://cochlearimplantonline.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227556965250402927.post-57405038513662695012011-07-01T09:09:48.948-05:002011-07-01T09:09:48.948-05:00Wow, you handled that wonderfully.

I could see why this girl did not always lipread. she probably too busy soaking in everything she need to know and she can' t get that information just by listening and lipreading combined. too much details would be missed out if we watch the teacher all the time. some of us deaf learning by textbook, watching other people, speechreading, looking at pictures or items to figure out how it suppose to work on our own, etc. EVERYTHING we can take in to learn. its how we learn<br /><br />i should get my certificate renewed and go back to nursing assistant again.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227556965250402927.post-83971516285208866062011-06-30T21:44:38.395-05:002011-06-30T21:44:38.395-05:00For a 16 year old, you write amazingly well.
