There may be a way to get an interpreter to attend the classes with you and interpret what your teacher is saying into sign language. You would need to ask your school about it or find a Vocational Rehabilitation office or something similar, and ask them about it.
deaf or hard of hearing people can do everything except hearing.
There are about 9 million deaf or hard of hearing people in the UK
lol. Who knows!? I would have to say about 1,738. ^^ actually it's a much larger number than that. I just began taking a sign language class this year and in the U.S. alone there are 25 million people who have hearing loss or who are deaf.
Most people would claim that approximately 10% of Deaf people have Deaf parents Schein (1989). However, more recent surveys have found that approximately 4.4% of deaf and hard of hearing children and youth come from families with deaf parent (Mitchell & Karchmer, 2002).
no I don't think so however you can go deaf if people punch you dead hard in the ear.
The deaf and hard of hearing can easily use everyday social media to get in touch with deaf and non-deaf people, such as Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and Flickr.However, there are some networks available which specialise for deaf people to meet other deaf or non-deaf individuals.For example:SnoorfiDeafChatAllDeafThere are also specialist media for deaf dating, if that's what you're looking for:Deaf-MatchDeaf PassionsSee the related links below.
According to estimates, there are approximately 26.9 million Americans who are deaf or hard of hearing, and around 1.3 million Americans who are blind.
There is no specific data available on the exact number of deaf people living in Denver, Colorado. However, it is estimated that about 15% of adults in the United States have some degree of hearing loss, so it is likely that there is a significant deaf population in Denver.
Yes, you should capitalize "Deaf" when referring to the Deaf culture and community. "Hard of hearing" is generally not hyphenated when used as a descriptor before a noun, but it can be hyphenated when used as a compound modifier before a noun (e.g., she is hard-of-hearing).
Either through sign language, writing back and forth, an interpreter, or gesturing. You can look on the internet for sign language interpreting agencies near you. They are business who will get you in contact with a professional who can communicate in sign language and whatever spoken language you use.Another OpinionIf you are asking the degree of communication skill, then I would have to say that Deaf people are far more skilled at understanding non-deaf, or hearing people, than visa versa. After all, Deaf people live in a world where they have to struggle to communicate, whereas, hearing people have less of a need to do that with Deaf people. So, in conclusion: Deaf people communicate very well with non-deaf people. And, non-deaf people have a hard time communicating with Deaf people.
It really depends, but it would be bad to be either. If you are blind, you can' see. You have to have some one read to you and you need to be able to recognize people's voices instead of their faces. It can be hard to learn too. Same with being deaf. And it would be hard to understand people. But a lot of people would rather be blind. Why? Because at least you can hear, smell, and actually learn a little bit more then when you are deaf. But if you ever get blind or deaf, don't ask these questions.
No, Albert Einstein was not deaf. He is known to have had hearing loss later in life, but he was not deaf.
