Mattydoos79 Posted May 15, 2018 Report Posted May 15, 2018 Hi just to say happy deaf awareness week, which I am deaf so people just face me and speak clearly and in well lit place so I can see lip reading. Also don’t mumble or face away when talking. If I’m not sure what you just said, you can write it down or explain clearer. Thank you and happy deaf awareness week
greenlands Posted May 15, 2018 Report Posted May 15, 2018 Just about the same here,it's surprising how many people don't look at you when they are speaking.
