What is speechreading?  The reading of lips and using other visual cues to enable the identification of speech movement and speech sounds.  Acquiring this skill provides an excellent coping strategy to those who are deafened or hard of hearing.  Speechreading eliminates the need or want to isolate from the oral world.  It greatly reduces the frustration and disappointments experienced by those who are experiencing hearing loss.

Fee - not a requirement
