Testimonials
“I believe I will be able to better identify learners and set and implement targets for them.
Teaching Assistant
“The training introduced me to a variety of visual impairments that I was not aware of. It also explained the different impact each condition might have on an individual, stating how it might differ between each person. I was able to identify new methods for assessment to determine what my students needs were and confidently write SMART goals and interventions to successfully implement these measures. My tutor was only an email away and was very responsive and supportive of my development. Thank you.
Teaching Assistant
“I feel that this training has expanded my knowledge of deafness within a school setting. Also, things like what to do when working in a mainstream class with a deaf student, things like how you position both yourself and the young person. Even so much as how to stand at the board. It has been very insightful and I'm sure I will use things I have learnt during my work.
Teaching Assistant
“This training has helped me become much more confident in my understanding of how best to help and support my student. Reading others’ ideas and opinions has also given me some good practical ideas to use in my work.
