At Mary Hare, we teach around 200 deaf children every year. It is with this continuing experience of understanding their needs, developing strategies and techniques to further their education and by providing the very best in technology and audiology, that we are able to offer courses to other professionals working in similar fields. We work in partnership with a number of organisations to deliver some of our courses.
"Mary Hare’s new partnership with Liverpool John Moores University, allows us to collaborate with both an historical course for Teachers of the Visually Impaired and a newly partnered course for Teachers of Multi-Sensory Impaired children and young people. This makes LJMU the only university in the UK offering training for teachers in all three sensory-impairments, each hosted at a special school to maximise close-to-practice training; in addition to being the only university to offer training for educational audiologists." Joy Rosenberg, Director of Mary Hare Courses
