Thank you! That was exactly the point I was trying to make. You were educated orally, so you have to go through an extra cognitive step in processing what you read, as well as in your ASL. Your brother, on the other hand, when reading, doesn't ahve to gothrough that extra step. He goes from visual English to visual concept without having to process from his auditory memory. Much less confusing. And, it just illustrates that there are many ways to teach reading and literacy skills.
