I came back from Canada to UK when I was 6 so I missed a year of school. I went to St.Lukes School Chadderton Oldham, Where I was taught phonetic alphabet a=ah b=buh c=cuh etc. My English is pretty good years later, I recommend it because you see words in your head (like up on a blackboard)
I started going Deaf when a boy perforated my ears in playground so I learned fingerspelling (Dad helped cos he'd been to Deaf School). Recently I learned British Sign Language..as its visual I find its similar logic to phonetics so easier to pick up? Do u agree?
