Lipreading

Learning the shapes that lips make for different sounds and how to help fill in missed words can be incredibly useful for someone who has hearing loss, especially in noisy environments. Anecdotal evidence shows just how much of an impact lip-reading can have on someone’s life. It prevents social isolation and improves confidence and independence. It keeps people in work and has even been known to save marriages. Lip-reading is a key part of the rehabilitation process for hearing loss, so classes are essential for many people whose hearing has deteriorated.
