Hello. I would like to ask what's your career and how is it? Im planning to change career. I'm currently a Math teacher and yes, I can say I'm good at it. However, I feel exhausted and struggle with following conversations. I'm turning 30yrs old. I'm willing to take another bachelor's degree. submitted by /u/Murky-Bat1526 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Temporarily Hard of Hearing

Hello! I was wondering if anyone had any tips when it comes to school for someone who’s temporarily hard of hearing. I’ve lost almost 50% of my hearing in both of my ears from a viral infection and have no idea when it’s going to go away so I just have to live with it for now. What are some tips when it comes to quiet teachers and ones that hardly use handouts? Thank you! Edit: I live in Canada grade 12 Edit 2: I should also add that I already have tinnitus and hearing loss doesn’t run in my family as far as we know submitted by /u/Electrical_Carob_867 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hi, first time posting here, but I had a question. I have severe hearing loss and wear hearing aids during the day. Obviously can’t wear them while I sleep, and wasn’t sure of other solutions for what’s happening. I have noticed I’m not hearing my alarms in the morning to wake up, and it’s starting to affect my job. I was almost an hour late this morning ? I was wondering if anyone had any tips for good alarms for this, or if there’s any other solutions? I have a watch that’ll vibrate when my alarms go off but I tend to have to charge it at night. Is there anything else that could work? Advic ..read more

Was anyone out in special ed as a kid?

It still annoys me that I was put in special ed part-time as a kid despite being one of the top students growing up. I was literally always the best in math in my grade level. I was among the top for all the other subjects and graduated my high school as number 5. I got into all the competitive colleges I applied to. F**k the education system. submitted by /u/Curious_Badger4794 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

As a hearing person am I wrong here?

Hi, 1st post here, I am a hearing person, but my Deaf cultural studies class posed a question should non-deaf professors be teaching ASL? I said I don't think it matters and derailed the discussion and class for about 40mins. I said as a hearing person (my major has nothing to do with language fyi) i think language is a highway for information sharing, so why would anyone of any culture feel that people looking into this language require a Deaf professor for ASL 1? I'm going to have questions and need coherent answers. If we are speaking diff languages how well is that going to work? He said ..read more

How do ask Deaf to slow down.

So I've been studying ASL and I'm probably at level 4 out of 4 at least 3.5. I noticed a lot of times I have trouble when I try and understand someone signing without them slowing down. I've gotten into the habit of having a person sign to me mostly on zoom and me trying to understand when I can. I'm fine when I'm asking what a sign is which is helping my vocab but I'm too embarrassed to ask Deaf people to slow down. I always have a feeling that I'm a guest in the Deaf community so I kind of have to force myself to understand them the best I can. If I can't understand them then that's my prob ..read more

How do y’all know when the oven is preheated and again when the timer goes off when foods done? I have an oven thermometer I check. I usually set a timer and check the temp to see if it’s ready, then use my phone to time the food in the oven. If you have any other tips I’d really appreciate submitted by /u/Significant-Alps4665 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more
