Rezensionen

"In an increasingly global society, knowledge of other cultures and languages is crucial for optimal functioning. Many deaf and hard of hearing people face considerable challenges in this global society, an important one being their lack of proficiency in foreign languages such as English. This well written, pioneering work about teaching English as a foreign language to deaf and hard of hearing students is an important step to change this situation for the better. "

The book is an impressive example of a long-awaited approach to teaching students with functional diversity: one that presents classroom-relevant research that will support teachers and professionals working with DHH students. The interventions and strategies presented in the volume reflect the contributors' life-time experience with DHH students making it a valuable resource for futurepractitioners.
