Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a unique and practical guide to the art of lip-reading, designed specifically for those with hearing impairments. The author, himself hard of hearing, draws upon both personal experience and years of teaching to make this complex skill accessible to all. The text presents a comprehensive system for learning lip-reading independently, building upon the success of the author's previous work, "Self-Instructor in Lip-Reading." Within the broader context of communication for the hearing-impaired, this book offers a systematic approach that emphasizes both the understanding of individual sounds and the development of the ability to grasp the overall meaning of spoken language. Through a series of carefully structured lessons, the reader is introduced to a detailed analysis of the visible facial positions associated with various sounds, followed by practice exercises that progressively build fluency in recognizing these positions within spoken words and phrases. The book emphasizes the importance of actively engaging with the material, encouraging readers to practice with friends and use a mirror to observe their own mouth movements. The author stresses the importance of persevering through practice, reminding the reader that mastery requires dedication and patience. The insights contained within this book hold the key to unlocking a richer understanding of spoken language, empowering individuals to participate more fully in conversations and connect with the world around them.
