AMERICAN DEAF CULTURE의 최상위 리뷰
A wonderful introduction to American Deaf Culture, I learned a lot from completing this course. Thank you!
Excellent course, I've learned so much about the culture and have plenty of recourses to refer to whenever needed.
Really liked the prof and learned a lot. It's made me interested in learning more. I wish it was a little more in-depth.
I am hearing and have just started a new job in a deaf related structure and I feel this course has been an awesome entry point in understanding the deaf culture.
