“It has given me more of an understanding of the obstacles that a deaf person can have and the responsibilities of caregivers to make sure they understand each person’s individual needs and not just put them in a box. To treat every deaf person as an individual. It’s also great to know the technology that we will hopefully be getting in the school to make his life easier.

“I have a much clearer understanding of the different levels of hearing loss and the aids that can be used. My understanding of how the environment can impact the learners experience has much improved too.

“This training has helped me to gain a deeper understanding of how to support the children in my class better, once school returns to normal, I will put into practice what I have learned.

“I know I said questions 1-3 I was only somewhat confident with; although I’m confident with the theory, I feel like I need more practice in person before I will be fairly/strongly confident. I look forward to implementing this training in my practice, which, due to the school I work at, is very child led.
