Yeah.
That's good.
So, we can?
Okay.
Hello everyone,
my name is Ann
a visiting scholar from China.
It's my honor to share my opinions
about the HHR program with you.
I work in the Department of
Education in Jilin Province
Right after I arrived at UW-Platteville,
last September.
Professor Dan introduced the HHR
program to me.
He said, "There was an amazing mind in it.
That makes me feel curious,
but now I should say the same word.
The HHR program is really amazing.
HHR program aims to especially help
the people with hearing and speech disabilities,
and their families
In China, there are more than
19 million people with hearing
and speech disabilities.
In my hometown, in Jilin province,
there are 5 special schools
for the students with hearing and
speech disabilities
This year, there are more than 2000 students
studying there.
If the students could study through this
great program
I believe it would help them broaden
their horizons very well.
It would also help them to get more
chances to live better lives.
I introduce this program to a principal
of the special school in our province.
She felt very excited, and she said,
"She would find some teachers,
who were good at sign language
to be volunteers
and involved in this program."
I will go back to China in August,
and I will continue to introduce this program
to more and more people.
Especially, to special schools.
I also want to find some teachers
and students in our province
who speak minority languages, like
Korean, "Mongolian" to be volunteers
and do their best for it.
It is very easy to find this program,
if you are interested
Google "His Hands Reader"
and get it.
Now this program is a baby.
It has a long way to go,
and a lot of things to do.
It especially needs a lot of volunteers
to work hard together.
No matter where you are,
who you are, and how old you are
you can be a volunteer and push
this program ahead.
And of course, everybody can benefit
from this program.
It is like building a bridge between
all the people in the world.
Especially between the able people and the people
with hearing and speech disabilities.
I'm eager to witness the growth of this program.
Thank you very much.
Yay.
That was so good.
