Hey Signers! I’m Sarah. I’m Deaf and teach ASL to hearing students at a High School. You can imagine the types of things I hear (scratch that) SEE when interactiving with my students. In this video, I’ll cover common mistakes people make when talking to Deaf individuals. Learn what not to say and why certain phrases can be offensive or insensitive. From misconceptions about Deaf abilities to inappropriate questions, we’ll guide you on how to communicate respectfully.
