Hi I Was Born With A Hearing Loss And Now Its Severe To Profound Unfortunality I Was In Mainstreamed Class Had Speech Therapy Everyday I Was Pulled Out Of English And Math Just Basics Classes. I Never Had What I Have Now In College. When I Went To College Back In 2004 For The 1st Time Iw As Put In Non Credit Courses For 3 Years Bc When I Took The Test.. I Didnt Know Wut It Was Bc I Never Learned Anything. They Treated Me Like Crap, I Was Isolated, Made Fun Of Etc. Being Pulled Out In Mainstreamed Classees Sucked. And Now Till This Day I Wish Iw As At A Different School A Deaf School And Now That I Just Learned Asl 2 Yrs Ago And Im Not The President Of The Club For 2 Yrs Also Its Just A Better Life For Me. And I Wouldnt Change This For The World Bc Now Im Fluent. I Can Hear Somewhat Still But Nothing Like I Used To. Also In Mainstreamed Class I Had 5 People In The Class And I Had An Aid With Me And A Hudge Speaker On My Desk And The Teacher Had Microphone Bc They Thought That Would Help Me. I Struggled Growing Up But Now That Im 22 Yrs Old I Am Happy That Im Me And I Know Asl And I Love The Deaf Communtiy.
