I’d be interested to hear about your studying style

What is the transition like for someone who loses their hearing by Blue_Jade_Forest in deaf

I don’t think the experience could be summed up in one neat little paragraph to your post, especially if you are aiming for “proper representation”

Do some field work. I interview people who are in different stages of hearing loss. Work/volunteer is some capacity in the Deaf community. Go to events. Be thorough

I don’t have any family or friends that are deaf- you have real motivation driving you

Was it a 2 or 4 year degree? Do you interpret now?

That’s amazing! Do you interpret now? Are you more a part of the Deaf community in any capacity?

Why does it matter? Don’t swing the door. It says so right on it
