I used to think it had to do with the teacher not sitting down to take the time to work with the student in preparing what to expect when we face the hearing world when we get older. Thank you and yes You right about this. This message you wrote above. Well Sometime I used to think that teacher fault because teacher taught us easy way. ( I don't blame any teachers but maybe the school system rules that way. I don't know) They should give me hard or level grade same as hearing age . Right now My level is 3.4 grade. I am not kidding. I don't write hard words on this. I was very late age to came to high school. I was 17 years old in 9th grade with hearing student. I didn't like that at all. Anyway When I was in English class (9th grade) with hearing student. Of course I had interpreter (ASL sign) but the problem is teacher taught hearing ways. So the interpreter had to follow exactly what teacher says It was shock and very overwhelming. It was very hard class for me. I fought this for 4 years high school. I stay after school ALLOTS. When I graduated H.S. and still feel not good enough in English. 2 years ago I attend collage and had to take a lot of math and English class. Boy, the teacher doesn't know what the level should be taught to deaf student. The teacher asks me, What should I do or need to help deaf student to learn . I told teacher that you should teach what you do the same as hearing students. Deaf and hearing students are equal. I told teacher that most deaf student have different level grade. Some deaf people are very smart because they went to hearing school all their life and never in deaf school and also don t know ASL sign. I have noticed that. Oh Jeez, I am talkative. Heh heh That's me! I should shut up to talk about this. Lourdes |
