Ignore her comments, and try to concentrate on your studies and consider your future professional plans seriously. <BR/><BR/>If you feel that something bothers you in your class, you can talk with your parents. Then, ask for your parents to discuss this issue with your teacher. Hopefully, your teacher will be able to understand you and change her attitude toward you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3793395877638200027.post-7251411756964105002007-12-10T00:17:00.000-05:002007-12-10T00:17:00.000-05:00Hey!<BR/><BR/>Yes, I agree that it doesn't matter if people are hearing or Deaf, they will always be distracted one way or another.<BR/><BR/>When we are in class and something move in front of our eyes, we could easily turn around to see what it is.<BR/><BR/>Same with hearies, they turn around to see what they have just heard if there was a sound somewhere.<BR/><BR/>-SG<BR/><BR/>By the way, welcome back! :-)Seek Geonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3793395877638200027.post-292166475296637592007-12-09T22:48:00.000-05:002007-12-09T22:48:00.000-05:00You have a good obversation on the situation. I totally agree with you. I deal with deaf students, and I understand them when they get distracted. I would do something to less distraction, because I am deaf myself. I know them. So, be patient with this teacher. You will have her for a year at least.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
