There will be various resources available that\u00a0further explain in-depth various aspects of the deaf culture as well as\u00a0language usage. Most deaf and hard of hearing individuals are happy to\u00a0explain their preferred communication style as well as their unique\u00a0backgrounds. The deaf culture is ethnocentric in nature, centered\u00a0around sign language and relationships among one another. Unlike other\u00a0cultures, the Deaf culture is not associated with any native land but,\u00a0rather it is a global culture. Although by some, deafness maybe viewed\u00a0as a disability, the Deaf-World sees itself as a language minority.\u00a0Throughout the years, many accomplishments have been achieved by deaf\u00a0people. To name the most famous, Ludwig van Beethoven and Thomas Alva\u00a0Edison were both deaf and contributed great works to culture.<\/p>\n<p>Cost: $45pp\/materials included<\/p>\n<p>Julie Howard<br \/>\nEmail: docjhoward@gmail.com<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Redefining Deaf &#8211; ASL Classes 1,2,3 &#8211; Houston Class Begin Monday, September 10, 2012; once a week for 12 weeks.
