Adam wants to also share that if you are interested in learning more about connecting with other musicians, join his Facebook group, 'Music is for ALL in our Deaf and Hard of Hearing Community.' Here you can meet others who may have similar questions as educators teaching DHH musicians and learn additional strategies that can be applicable to you and your classroom.

We discuss compensatory strategies for unilateral listeners. These are strategies we teach the students so that they can learn to advocate for themselves.
