@ladyivy21663 I was just on your site and read that you are hearing impaired, and I'm ASSUMING GREATLY a possible speech impediment? This is very interesting to me, as I have always wondered and felt that these techniques might work in helping people with speech 'problems". When I hear a hearing impaired person speaking they sound like their tongue is flat and over activating the jaw...can you tell me if this has been your experience? Thank you for your inspiration.

@ladyivy21663 Thank You so much for the descriptions of your learning.You had a great teacher, This is the same method Helen Keller used correct? Truly amazing and very inspirational! I find any thing to do with the voice very interesting. I too suffer from a 30-40% hearing loss in my right ear, and have a problem picking up some sounds. luckily i learned to sing before this happened so i rely on sensation allot. in fact I will plug my ears to feel my voice inside instead of hearing it.

sorry about spamming the comment section didnt realized i went off the subject and blabbed, it was an exciting moment to share. i dont normally have people curious of how i can talk... i usually get really negative reaction from people like being made fun of which im used to. anyways i want to thank you again for kindness of heart :) also this video taught me i dont have to huff and puff to talk YAY!!!!!!!!!! thank you thank you !

that i was hard of hearing in the first place and when i started getting those comment, thats when i had realized i finally mastered it , oh forgot to mention i am almost 90% deaf without my hearing aids in the past it was 78% hearing loss. though i am glad i can still hear enough to still hear videos though that is kind of fading ( i have to use earphones to hear it better the ones that goes in the ear ) also u are one of the few people that i can hear all of your words you say :)

to feel puff of air coming out ( she had to add more air pressure for me to feel it) like paper...

P( < puff of air)a P ( <puff of air) e r ahem uh i probably confused you more than i did describing how i learned to speak. 4th one is learning where and when and how much i do the tongue without having my mouth wide open and my lips etc . i know it sounds gross but hey at least i can talk, 4 years ago is when i found people telling me they could not believe i could talk clearly they didnt know

[ladyivy21663]

my deep voice came from the deep sound i hear when i was learning how to speak, and you are right about the tongue is flat and over activating the jaw. when i learned how to speak which sadly most therapist don't teach so i got the special one :P i learned by 1 was having my hand on her throat to feel the vibration i had to copy what i felt, 2 was she would open her mouth wide and do a letter say C but u don't just say say c you do Ka as in CAtch CAt. 3 i would have my hand close to her mouth

@Ising4u333 about 4 years ago i was finally able to speak clearly but sometimes i catch myself talking through my teeth because the jaw feels stiff & i have to correct it and not moving my tongue properly to make the word because i learned what i saw not what i hear, i can't hear what i say especially vowels ( i was taught by a wonderful patient speech therapist) i learned 4 ways to talk all in one i will post in the next comment don't have enough characters to post it.
