Aspects of Educating and Teaching Deaf People

Before explaining the concept of deafness we will consider the consequences of deafness. In a world where sounds have been made into system, which we call language, through which people mostly communicate with one another, we have to take into account that not being able to pick up auditive stimuli is the greatest limitation for dear people to acquire oral communication.

Communication is predominantly oral in the hearing world. Therefore deafness is taken as an essential disorder of language development by the “talking” world. Additive stimuli are insufficiently or not al all registered by hearing-impaired people.
