💬 Communicating with someone who is Deaf or Hard of Hearing? Here are some friendly tips to make your conversations smoother and more inclusive: Establish eye contact before speaking. It helps get their attention. Ask them to repeat what they heard. It ensures clarity. Rephrase if needed. Sometimes different words are easier to understand. Facilitate lipreading by keeping your face visible (no chewing or covering your mouth). Enunciate clearly. Speak at a normal pace. Use gestures or sign language if you know it. It adds clarity and shows effort. Avoid shouting, saying "Never mind," and exaggerating facial cues. #DeafAwareness #CommunicationTips #Inclusion #MamaHuHears #BeInclusive
