Hi, I'm Lauren and I'm new here and just wanted to introduce myself. I lost some of my hearing due to an illness as a child and it has gotten increasingly worse throughout my since and now have hearing aids. I have always been interested in ASL and use a lot of it in my classroom with my students with autism who are mostly non-verbal. Is this place cool?

to AllDeaf forum. Well, we need to air our frustrations and trying to understand what we need to know. We learned some insights about what they said and we needed to think in our thoughts of what the topic was saying. Few of the AD members do not want to learn and wanted to remain stubborn. I am not a teacher but I am trying my best to explain reasons why I want to talk about topics that interest me. Just browse around the forum and see what you like to talk about. Beside, it is suppose to be fun. Maybe not fun.
