GT101 Certificate in Teaching Lipreading to Adults

 

Course Information

The aim of this course is for students to become qualified to teach lipreading to adults, either with an acquired hearing loss, or who were born with a hearing loss but use speech as their preferred method of communication. Successful students will be able to organise and teach classes in lipreading and use their knowledge and understanding of deafness to give helpful guidance to hard of hearing people.

The course consists of 2 units:

  • City Guilds 7303 Preparing to Teach in the Lifelong Learning Sector [PTLLS] – the theory and practice of teaching adults
  • Specialist Lipreading Unit – City Lit Certificate

This is an integrated course so elements of lipreading theory and practice are taught alongside elements of adult education theory and practice. Students must achieve both units in order to gain the Certificate in Teaching Lipreading to Adults

All aspects of the course are based on continuous assessment and an end of course final teaching assessment with an external assessor.

Acceptance on the course is by interview.

To register your interest, please complete an application form and we will contact you in due course with further details.

It is anticipated that the next course will commence in April 2012 and run for 4 terms.
