Greetings, my name is Carol and this is my blog about higher education for the hearing impaired and deaf-blind.
I am a hearing impaired person myself. I was born with a hearing impairment and have had a lifetime of difficulty communicating and getting an education. In spite of this I successfully graduated from university and received a degree in psychology.
Over time I realized that not all hearing and deafblind students have the same opportunities as me. I noticed that many of them had difficulties in learning due to the lack of appropriate support and adapted programs.
That is why I decided to create my blog, in which I share my knowledge and experiences about higher education for hearing and deafblind students. Here I talk about what universities exist, what adapted programs and services are available for students who are deaf or hard of hearing, and how to cope successfully with studying and communicating at university.
I share my knowledge and experience to help other students overcome difficulties and succeed in their studies and in life in general.
