“Before I did this course I only had a very basic knowledge of deafness. I do not currently work with deaf students but I maybe working with one next year so the information contained within this course will help me to support the student.

“Although I am an experienced TA, it was nice to still learn new strategies and listen to others experiences without being judged. I can’t wait to get back into school to practise and show the new confidence I have gained. It's also great to know that the course resources will still be available for a while so I can give myself a quick reminder when schools return! Thank you!!

“I really enjoyed hearing from deaf learners in the various videos. It helped me to understand what it was like to live in society with hearing loss. I am definitely more confident on how to support my current deaf learner and any future kiddies that I may meet. I have really enjoyed getting to know my learner this year - his attitude towards education and life has been an eye-opener to me. I've also enjoyed building a relationship with his mom and our external support teachers. I am happy to have completed this course - it was well worth it. Thank you.

“The training has helped me revise my knowledge and understanding of ASC and developed my awareness of appropriate interventions. Exploring SMART goals reminded me of the small steps often required to help students achieve and improved my confidence to discuss these with schools.
