What has been my journey? I am a deaf person, I have a hypochondria, a deep bilateral cerebral infarction in both ears, but I only have headphones in my left ear, okay?
00:00:30
So, I am the only deaf person in my family, there is no one deaf in my family, there is no one who knows sign language.
00:00:39
So, my parents, when I was born, did not notice anything, at first, okay? Until I started going to what is child education, which is now, but before it was the pamphlet, okay?
00:00:47
My relationship with my parents at that time, when I was very little, they thought I was a disobedient girl, a distracted girl, and what happened is that I already had a hearing impairment, it is not known very well if it was at birth, the doctors say at birth, but my parents believe that it was a reaction to some antibiotics, because I used to have angina many times, okay?
00:00:58
My family is something complicated, because my family is all hearing, and I have been the only deaf person, so, it has harmed me when it comes to communication, because they also did not understand me, they did not adapt to me,
00:01:18
adapting to me in the sense that I had to export myself to listen to them, but they did not make an effort, such as, for example, to have patience, also because I have had to, I mean, I have come here, to where I am right now, and the knowledge I have about the deaf community, by myself, but my family has not guided me in,
00:01:36
come on, well, I'm going to join this association, come on, well, I'm going to join you with deaf people, so it has been a very complicated process for me, many times they excluded me because they told me that I did not know about things, or if they did not know, instead of taking and explaining them to me, well, nothing, you do not know, we do not explain it to you.
00:01:59
I am from a hearing family.
00:02:20
Okay, and what has been your experience as a deaf person in a hearing family?
00:02:22
My experience has been horrible, the truth, because, for example, when there has been a meeting, at parties, at Christmas, on birthdays, that we have all met, I looked, I looked at each one, really, reading the guide, I tried to follow the rhythm of the others, and really, well, I could not.
00:02:26
My family, in sign language, well, they do not know anything, my father and my mother know a little, some basic things, but a little to communicate with each other, but they should also try a little to adapt a little, and try a little, each one, to adapt a little to me, because I am a deaf person, and I have to be continuously following the conversations, it is quite complicated for me.
00:02:43
So, all families should learn a little sign language, even if it is something basic, to be able to communicate and try to have a good communication.
00:03:10
What did you do in school?
00:03:21
In school, it was simply to put me in the front row, and the teachers who were a little more attentive to me, to speak a little more slowly.
00:03:26
The deaf student now, only had one teacher, went to an ordinary school, okay, without any kind of support, nothing, simply the teacher knew that I had a hearing disability, and I always sat in the front row, okay.
00:03:33
Then, what is the 6th, 7th and 8th grade, okay, which would be a little bit the ESO, more or less, because when all the teachers changed, we did not say anything, I also started adolescence, the complexes began, so there the difficulties began a little, in plan to continue, but hey, I looked for life and well.
00:03:46
Yes, it was bilingual.
00:04:10
And how was the experience?
00:04:13
Very good, very good, I was in a school that has been adapted, totally accessible, before it was reviewed, it was individually attended to deaf students, what needs, they gave us the things we needed, the things that deaf students need, this is tried to cover those needs.
00:04:15
So, my experience has been very, very good, I have not had problems in terms of accessibility, I had interpreters, everything adapted visually, things we needed, they gave it to us.
00:04:36
Then, most of the teachers were also very, very sensitized, so it was a very good experience.
00:04:47
Of course, because I was in a concerted institute, which includes from elementary school to high school, and I was there all that time, in which I only had a friend, thanks to her I got out of ESO.
00:04:54
Then we went there and we all took different branches, but it has also cost me, for the fact that I had the deaf label, no teacher adapted to me, they did not have patience with me, the only thing, I even got to learn in elementary school, that if they had to put me adaptation to the curriculum.
00:05:11
My mother has always been struggling in a certain way, but I learned everything like a parrot, I hated studying for the simple fact that I did not understand what I was studying, and it has been to get to this cycle and a world has opened up to me, and it is not the same to study something when you do not understand it and to study something when you understand it.
00:05:35
I suffered what is now called bullying, not as strong as it can be suffered now, but the relationship was very scarce and it was a relationship of mockery, little respect, ignorance, etc.
00:06:06
I had a very small ass, I tried to hide it, because they put me on the first hearing aid when I was 13 years old, then just in adolescence I tried to cover it with my hair, I did not know the deaf community and then the relationship was complicated, but hey, I got ahead because despite having hearing disabilities, I am a very extroverted person, so it raised me a little.
00:06:20
All my life I have been a hearing person until I got here, to Mediación, and in the last year, in 2021-2022, I had an experience with a deaf boy.
00:06:44
They are two totally different worlds and it is as if I feel in the middle of them both, and then I introduce myself to his friends, super good, super nice, totally understandable, well, I think that also for them it is an achievement that there are more and more people who are deaf, because as we have said, it is a very minority group.
00:06:57
For example, in my personal life I relate more with deaf people, most of my friends are deaf, because for me communication is much more comfortable, but I also have hearing friends, those hearing friends speak some sign language, so they adapt to me and my communication and communication with them is perfect.
00:07:23
But here at the institute I also have friends, I have friends who try to do oral reading, they speak to me orally, I try to do oral reading, but there is a lot of difference.
00:07:42
There are barriers, there are prejudices in businessmen in hiring people with hearing impairment, so I hid it, I didn't know how to say it, and well, more or less well, but yes, day by day when I was at work, they noticed that something was missing, that is, they called me from behind or the use of the phone, each time I had, as I have also lost a little bit as I grew older, well, I had to find out how to use the phone.
00:07:54
I work now as a teacher of sign language, and as a deaf person they value me, but it has been much more for me.
00:08:22
I think it depends on the center, for example, a center that is focused and that is sensitized with deaf people, for example, FEDERACIÓN DE SORDOS DE LA COMUNIDAD DE MADRID, for example, yes, they are more sensitized.
00:08:36
For me it will be very easy to work in this type of field because they are sensitized in the subject of deaf people, but in other areas, explaining this, this, this, and everything I have said will depend a lot on that person.
00:08:49
So it may be that they adapt me and that this work may have been adapted for me, but I don't think there is any problem, but it depends on the center, but the majority will surely find many difficulties, the boss, the colleagues are constantly talking, it is not adapted to me, the majority is like that.
00:09:01
As for the media, it is true that I am noticing that lately, from a couple of years to now, there is more representation in the media, especially in the cinema, in the short films, especially from the United States,
00:09:22
because there have been some short films that have had awards and that has given diffusion to the sign language, diffusion to the deaf community, so it does give a little more visibility, even here in Spain there is now a short film that is in the Goya awards and more visibility, but as for the people who transmit the information, there is a lack of information,
00:09:44
because there are many journalists, many media that have still been using words like disabled person, or less valid, or deaf-mute person, or sign language, which are words that are wrong, so there is a lack of information for the media to spread it correctly.
00:10:06
Nothing, no, no, nothing, very little, more awareness would be needed, more, for example, more schools, it is also very important to give interpreters in schools, in medical centers, it is also very important to give information about the accessibility that we need in each place, do not realize that deaf people are not the same as hearing people.
00:10:26
What I can say is that when I watch television, I make a lot of use of the subtitle, but sometimes the subtitle is not very good quality, or says other things, or is not used to what it says on TV with what the subtitle really says,
00:10:54
so little by little I hope they improve it, and then there is also only one channel in which sign language is transmitted, in RTV, what happens if I want to watch Telecinco, or I want to watch Cuatro?
00:11:15
Well, no, I have to rely on the subtitle, but even sometimes it goes crazy, it is pixelated, so I also think that the media does not have so much complete information, that is, they also have a certain lack of knowledge.
