    Best way to develop oral skills?

    Try it you will like it! Jiro- Not being able to hear and expecting a deaf child to lip read is indeed an arduous/exhausting task. However, when a deaf/hoh child/or adult is cued to they do develop an inside voice coinciding to the visual cues of the spoken language. It is truly amazing!
