Learn how to recognise some sounds that are visible on the lips and how to use other tactics to support lipreading.
What will we cover?
- A continuation from module 2 in recognising consonant and vowel lip shapes
- Tactics for managing hearing loss in everyday life.
What will I achieve? By the end of this course you should be able to...
- recognise visible speech sounds and their value
- recognise which consonants look alike on the lips
- use productive finger spelling skills to support others who are lipreading you.
What level is the course and do I need any particular skills?
The class is aimed at people with an acquired hearing loss who use spoken English to communicate with others.
This course will be taught in spoken and written English and not in sign language.
Straightforward written sentences are used in exercises and during teaching to confirm spoken words.
The course is for people who have completed beginners modules 1 and 2 or those who have attended a lipreading class and have a basic understanding of consonant theory and finger spelling.
You may also like to enrol on this course to support a friend or family member who has hearing loss.
How will I be taught, and will there be any work outside the class?
In class there will be group work, pair work, practical work, lecture, demonstration and discussion.
We aim to make all our lipreading teaching accessible for students with an acquired hearing loss, whether it is an online course or face to face.
Are there any other costs? Is there anything I need to bring?
Please bring pen, notebook and A4 folder.
When I've finished, what course can I do next?
This course leads to Lipreading and managing hearing loss: improvers module 1 or you can repeat any of the beginners modules. Your tutor will provide advice on the appropriate next steps. You may also be interested in workshops on managing hearing loss such as Managing Hearing Loss at Work, Living Well with Hearing Loss or Assertiveness and Hearing Loss.
