This was a fun and interesting class. It's very informative for those interested in learning more about the Deaf Community.
I am also a CODA, and I am so happy that a course on Deaf Culture is on CourseRA. Very proud of the collaborative efforts of exposing hearing people to the deaf community. ILY!
I enjoyed how the lessons were categorized and that the instructor added his personal experience.
