Okay so I have posted about a student I tutor previously. But his parents are asking me to help him out. He still has a hard time accepting the fact that he is deaf. He is in constant denial and constantly wishes he was hearing. He has a very stubborn attitude that prevents him from studying or...

hehe totally agree. but i still have to do my duties.

Okay okay, first lets get this gender situation corrected. I'm a guy. please, refer me as "he." thank you very much. sorry if this truth disappoints anyone... And no i have not left, i was busy past week. I don't always have time to be on the internet, you know. There is what is called, an...

he has one brother who doesn't live with him. he's older but he doesn't bother learning sign language either. He's always been to a deaf school, but he has problems dealing with other deaf so he got kicked out of a few schools. Now he's going to a small adult deaf school. But the school got...

my goal is to teach him to read or write. i CAN teach how to read and how to write, if the student is willing. he's had a few teachers before me, and no one is willing to deal with him because of his attitude towards his studies. Had he not have his parents he'd be living in the streets. He...

Ic.. thanks for the info. I'd suggest writing but he can't read or write. I try to get him exposed to other deaf people but he doens't like to hang out with them, because he doesn't like signing. I will try to talk to his dad though. He seems the more supportive one but doesn't know how to...

Okay so I posted this in another thread about another problem, but it has to do with the same person. I'm a private tutor for this deaf guy, 22 years old. His family doesn't know ASL, and don't bother to learn it. He himself isn't so skilled at it, and doesn't know how to read at all. But...

I don't doubt that he may be depressed. But I don't think it's a serious one if it is. I don't know for sure though... Youtube videos...? Video game sounds good. Maybe I'll buy the whole gran turismo game and steering wheel.

Haha I'm sorry I guess I made him sound like a total dummy. He does understand ASL. Just not fully, as in he doesn't know what some signs mean, and it's tough to expain it because he doesn't understand the english word as well. And some signs are really hard to explain, IMO. English is out of...

Hey all, I hope i'm not duplicating another previous post, but I currently tutor a deaf student in my school district. His dad wants me to teach him how to drive so he can get his driver's licence, but there are a few problems. He cannot read english. He knows the signs for the words but...
