Hi, My name is Peter and I have just started a job with a nonprofit who helps the disabled with jobs. I have 2 deaf employees and I am having difficulty communicating with them. They seem to take offense when I ask them to write down what they are saying. Because I need to be able to communicate with them I need to find a way to do so. I plan on learning sign language but time is an issue as I am already working with them. Is there a translator that I can type my question and it will translate to sign language for them? I believe that would be very helpful in helping them and myself to understand eachother.
