My Feelings About Deaf People by Priyanka Ghosh

GRO... the first time I heard about GRO I did not know what it was. Now I look at GRO, now I am here, I see what GRO is. I learned there is a world with deaf people everywhere. They are poor or have no parents. There are deaf people who have no experience.  I learn from GRO then I teach deaf people. They can improve and become equal. Hearing people have experience, not the deaf people. I teach and work with them so they can be equal to hearing people. I want deaf people to grow. They can do it. Hearing people seem good with their lives and deaf people can’t have that? No, deaf people can.  There are deaf people who have experience but there are other deaf people that are stuck. We can pay attention to those people, help them. Deaf people in Kolkata, their English is not good. Back then, all of us in Kolkata at schools learned Bengoli language. We learn well, but English, we know little or no language. I want English language to be taught to me.  When I learn more English, then I can teach deaf people well. They can learn. They can gain knowledge. I want minds to expand.

In America, there are deaf people that go to college. In India, there are schools but not many deaf people go to college. Very few deaf people go to college in India. I want to go to college that communicates through sign language and English.
