In Their Own Words

Yumi Kase

Hello. I'm Japanese and I was born deaf. But my parents tried to make me be able to speak. So, I attended "speaking language" education for six years (0-6 years old). Also, I attended a hearing school during all my years. Now I'm in the 10th greade in Senior High School. It's too difficult to attend class every day, but I never give up.
