So much of our education depends on being able to hear.
Hearing helps children with language, social, and emotional development.
I am very interested in deaf education and would hopefully like work in a preschool for children who are deaf or have hearing impairments. I first became interested in deaf education in fourth grade after reading and learning about Helen Keller. After seeing the movie Mr. Holland's Opus my interested in deaf education was even stronger. Since I have had an interest in deaf education I have started to learn Sign Language. Also last year I took a class through GOHI here at SUNY Geneseo.
