Hello lovely people! I'm Jessica and welcome to my channel

過去形

Now we're both deaf but I grew up hearing and Jazzy

grew up deaf, so today we're going to be talking about the differences between that.

First I just want to explain that Jasmine's being voiced over

subscribers so I wanted to make sure that they could understand.

My first question for you is at what age did people know that you were deaf?

When I was 10 months old  everyone found out I was deaf

It was quite late as back then in the old days that's when you found out

They all learned BSL very quickly,  they learned BSL for me.

How old were you when you started going deaf?

15 was the age I started to lose my hearing

That was then like 'oh this is a problem'

university and that was the big difference that kind of change in

location and before then I've been really ill

suddenly just people everywhere  and I couldn't understand.

I know the feeling that loss of control it's really hard.

It was kind of weird because when  I was like really little

hearing and it was I think when I was about five years old

I had an operation and I'd had like various operations but that was the one

hearing straightaway when you were 15 or 16 or...how old did you say you were?

I thought it started straightaway then I didn't realize you had problems when you

How did you cope when you first  found out you were deaf?

lazy because I sort of sit in school and actually try and try and try to

the front of the class and yeah watch watch the teachers

Yes, I always had to sit at the front  because I'm deaf, yes.

but also because I had to watch the interpreter

If I sat at the back how would I understand?

interpreter but it was hard when the teacher would pace back and forth

between me and the interpreter and I had to say

'please move I want to see the interpreter'

Oh my God, school, university, everyone...

sign language just to understand it when I was 15 because I sort of realized like

mm something's wrong and it really helped but my school didn't have any

Wow was your school not deaf aware? Nothing?

There is like no other deaf person and because I was losing my hearing but I

didn't have a diagnosis and the University were actually really great

when you go to school and you're the only one what everyone else is hearing?

Yeah I mean the challenge was that I just I think I didn't have

the words to explain to everyone else how I felt and how isolating it was.

It was the same myself in a mainstream school everyone else was hearing I mean

they had a deaf unit with about 20 to 25 deaf but I still found it challenging

because when I was in the classroom I was all by myself being deaf so it was

Well, sometimes I was by myself and sometimes I was with other deaf

students luckily. Sometimes if the level of the Deaf was different like if they

were in the advanced set in English and I was in the lower then we'd be apart

then in the classroom I had to cope with lots like it was hard to make friends

because I had no speech, plus sometimes the teacher wasn't deaf aware so that

But luckily I had an interpreter with me and she supported

Did you ever try using your voice or just always just no?

was using my voice when I was in secondary school some of the time

especially when I have my cochlear implant before that I had hearing aids

but I couldn't hear anything I was fully deaf.
