I was listening what Luis had to say about edcuation and compare the differences mainstreamed and deaf school. As I mention before, I have grew up oral and later learn SEE (Sigh Exact English). I pick up very little by little of ASL and I enter Gallaudet. I was so overwhalmed(sp?) with so much easier to commuicate as well learn more ASL.
As I mention before, I was lucky to move different places and I was able to learn many different teaching methods of what teachers had taught me that they think what's best for me. It's funny. I learn so much with many different method. Again (forgive me for repeat), I think it is depend on government, prinicipal, and supertendented prinicipal... and possible community.
Reason I say this is because one is I moved. I grew up mainstreamed. I went to preschool and it is private preschool for the deaf. It is excellent providing education because it is base on community. I learn a lot. I enter one elementary school. The edcuation was O.K. It was the teacher herself is abusive. Long story, somehow she got fired. Later, there's a new teacher came in. I could have swore, I see twins. Despite the fact they look sooo different. One have blond and other have black. One is taller and other is shorter. But everthing thier personality and behavior and the way they moved... exact the same. Truth is, it is the prinicipal should be fired. We moved. I went second elemtartry, the education SUCKS! Everything same, same, same, same, same, everyday. Same math problems, same reading problems, and etc. Over and over. Nothing new, nothing exciting... OY! I told my parents about it so we moved again.
I went to 3rd elemtartary, it was pretty good. It is a little bit challenging. I learn a lot. We moved again. 4th elemtartary, I learn more. The teacher notice my higher level is science and Soical Studies. (GOD! I HATE Social Studies and I have no idea why am I soo good at that? I find it sooo boring. I rather science.) So, the teacher put me higher level of Science and Soical Studies (still don't like Social Studies and whats ironic? I don't remember what's Social Studies, now. Haha) So this 4th elemtartry was so much better than the previous ones. I enter Middle School. Education was excellent.
We moved again, I enter 2nd Middle School. The education wasn't that good. It wasn't challenge. The 1st Middle School's education is better. I have more challenging there. Anyway, I did learn here and there. I acutally enjoy there. I think it is the environment.
We moved again. Lucky, I finished my 8th grade and able to move 9th grade in High School without interprut again in the middle of it. Meanwhile, the High School was O.K. The teacher didn't want me to go to learn different language. I remember I was depsitely wants to learn Spanish and French. I should have told my parents about that. They will agrue with them and get me into it. But what's done is done. Point is, the education was pretty good.
By the way, I did visit School for the Deaf in Calforina. It is well-known in Riverside. Calfornia school for the Deaf, I heard it is best school for the deaf. In fact during that that I was elemtartary, all the deaf people went to that deaf school instead of mainstream in Middle School. So, I want to go where they're going. My mom had a good point after I visit there. They are teaching deaf people "how to be costumer". In another word, they're teaching "metal retended" how to live in the world same way they are doing to deaf children at Deaf School. There isn't best education. So, I didn't went. I continue to mainstream.
My point is, it is depend on how do they teach and finicially (sp?). Sometimes, my parents have to push. Oh, before I enter 2nd middle school, there wasn't any deaf in mainstream in Middle School. All Deaf Children goes to Elementary, some are older enough to go to Middle School and some are older enough to go to High School. However, they are going to Elemtartry. My parents have to push REAL hard that my parents doesn't approve that. My parents wants me to go to Middle school and have deaf program there and High School including. Of course, they're upset because they want to keep money to themselves and not spend on delveloping deaf program in mainstream for Middle School and High School.
I remembered that &%^ teacher put me seprately from the deaf group. So, the deaf group rejecting me. Mainly because teachers (notice the plural) mad at my parents so they put it on me. I had have hard time fitting in. Deaf children are already clicked start from Elementary. So seeing teacher rejecting me so they rejecting me, too. Yeah, my mom saw that so she fussed at my teacher for doing that. But it was too late. The rest of the kids were rejecting me.
Now, come to think of it... It was my parents push real hard to get me a better education. Not the school..... Now, I know why they moved a lot... The real reason is finding better education for me. Children who recieved better education is from the parents who push it to make it happen.
Thanks Mom and Dad.
P.S. ASL is the key to improve the english. It's true. The research have proven that and I notice it that, too. I may not be excellent english but I used to be a lot worst. Not oral and not SEE can improve my english.
Hope that I give a good feedback for you, Luis. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask.
