Jazzy x
I am fluent in ASL. I am 14 year old and I go to public school for the hearing. I grew up speaking but I learn ASL at a young age. I have been bully for my hearing a lot. I've had people call my hearing aid fake and that I use it for attention. Your channel has help me a lot I so thankful for it! Keep up good work!
Does anyone else sit watching Jaz for a good 5 minutes before realising you don't know sign language yet? 😅 Have to go back and put the captions on 😂
I don’t know how to put the captions on 😂
I’m not first
I’m not last
But when jazzy uploads
I click fast
AncientZoned lol you got me weeeaaaak
Thank you for sharing this. I'm a secondary school English teacher in County Durham and teach basic BSL on a Friday after school and will show this to my group to educate them on life as a Deaf person. I hope schools will eventually teach BSL in the curriculum!
Hey I totally understand your pain with radio aids. Im profoundly deaf and I have cochlear implant. The radio aids back in school was very horrible and so annoying. Didn't make much friends because they thought I was different and weird for wearing them! thank god I don't wear them anymore. Honestly loving your videos!!! xx
I'm really curious what it's like going to the hairdresser's or beauty salon for you as a Deaf person. Thanks for this video, your stuff honestly makes my day!
Another idea: false friends in BSL and other sign languages.
Like words and phrases that are similar or identical across different sign languages but actually mean different things. I know hearing English and hearing French have several examples
I’m deaf and attended to mainstream school for my whole life. I can relate to most experiences you shared, especially these girls who fought over you 😂 (In my experience, I had a few girls who did this in elementary and it was weird.) And I was in Yearbook since I loved photography. (I still do! 😊)
It was a very tough time, but you come through it stronger and show other deaf people struggling at school it does get better, stay strong ❤️❤️ xx
Jazzy ur amazing !! I can’t imagine getting treat like that during secondary school 😭😭 but u successfully been through that and now ur the happy girl u used to be !! So proud of u ❤️❤️ love ur channel 😍
Ah, good ol' mainstream school while being deaf!
I never went to mainstream school. Still, as an Autistic, Catholic school (#NunsEverywhere) was, ironifally, HELL.
Kids would Say ableist/racist slurs. Nobody would notice.
Kids wouldn't team with me at projexts. So i had to do a full investigation of 15 Pages, alone... In just one weekend. Of course, i didn't sleep well.
If i got Bad grades, i'd be considered "R******d". Of xourse, the social workers didn't help. My therapist had to come talk. It was a long wait.
It wasn't all Bad. The Mother Superior would try to help me. But it wasn't that much of a Match.
thanking for sharing your experiences and giving us an insight to your life you are an inspiration to both deaf and hearing people . would love to see a video about how you get on in your working life too xx
I enjoyed this video! I'm always curious about other deaf people's schooling experience.
I was also a mainstream student in schools that had a Deaf and Hard of Hearing Department (about 20-30 students total, depending on the year). I loved having deaf friends to play and socialize with during breaks, but the DHH was run by clueless hearing teachers who thought they knew what was best for us.
Since I was totally deaf, I was exempt from wearing the radio unit (we called them FMs). Many of my friends hated them and didn't appear to benefit from wearing one.
As much as I hated my school years, I still support mainstreaming deaf kids. (After all, we have to interact with hearing people outside of school.) The school board needs to allow deaf educators take the reins rather than continue to allow hearing people to call the shots!
Love hearing about all your experiences as a deaf person, your a very strong woman, with a very positive attitude! I love your self confidence, your amazing and beautiful jazzy!!
Jazzy, I'm always excited when you upload! Thank you for sharing your experiences and helping others with hearing impairments / deafness feel less alone!❤️
My mainstream school was the worst, of course I was bullied all the time for my deafness in a way they didn't like the fact they couldn't fool me when they mock me etc etc. I'm fluent in speaking more then sign language so I grew up speaking instead of BSL but now I do learn BSL as of some friends sign. It a different experience world from what I hear compare to mainstream school and deaf school and listening to different side of the life. And yes HATED wearing that bloody radio aids but never wear it because it was useless so been into trouble all the time for not wearing it so they gave up in the end lol. But my experience from mainstream school had made me loads more stronger and more confidence.
I dont know why, but when she said ‘Its like im their little baby, you know’ I started laughing 😂 Your videos are amazing and their really quiet, so its also kinda asmr lol
Thanks for sharing this Jazzy, as a Teacher of the Deaf, I love to watch and share first hand experiences to help build awareness.
Teacher the math is so hard
Please help me
Im grade three
Hi Jazzy, im fairly new to your channel but my mum and i love watching your videos as soon as they come out! Here at 5 comments! ❤
omg i hope you tell us more about your experiences, this is so cool!
Omg!! I SWEAR YOU DESERVE MORE LIKES!!!!!
I would learn sign language immediately if there was a deaf person in my class🥰
Thanks for sharing with us Jazzy. You know, this is a good reference for people in secondary school now who don’t understand and can help with their understanding of compassion. I’d definitely be interested in hearing about your work experiences for sure. In terms of other video ideas, I’d be interested in learning more about what you think of deaf access now. E.G. going to the cinema, going to the doctors, looking for jobs, announcements on trains/airplanes etc, travelling/holidays!
every time i watch you i always get this amazing feeling and vibe that youre so kind xx LOVE YOU XXX
Your so inspirational, love you!! 💗💗💗
I love watching this, thank you for sharing your story 🤍
Cool video. Love to know more stories. 👍👍 I'm deaf and I have Ulcerative colitis too. So I know stress effect dont help. Glad you share it thank you.
Rashly enjoyed this. Hugely insightful. Thanks for sharing.
I understood all of this! My primary school experience is pretty much exactly the same as you right down to the Radio FM systems. I used both the old and the silver radios (which we called "boots"). I stopped using them more because of the static they caused, I couldn't understand what the teacher was saying due to that. It's so cool to see how similar our experiences are even though we're from different countries and backgrounds!
Thank you for sharing your experiences! It makes me want to make a new video about my experiences 💕
Its unbelievable to be that there are people who will bully you for being deaf, these are the people that will end up alone and with nothing of value. Keep smiling Jazzy, show them how it's done
It’s so interesting to find out how your life at school was and that there were many deaf people in your school and the more was actually support available. On a strange level I can understand how secondary school was so different. I grew up undiagnosed with autism and only got diagnosed 3 years ago ages 25. I’m so glad that your school had things in place to support you though as I could’ve done with some support and recognition especially in secondary school. Love your videos have only just come across them but am really enjoying them x
Your parents made a good call in having you stay home and go to mainstream school instead of boarding school. They would've missed you terribly. My nephews and nieces argue with each other all the time over who gets to see me. They argued so much that we (me, my brother and sisters) had to decide who gets to see me on what day. Children can tell when someone is good and the other girls weren't arguing over you because you were deaf. They were arguing over you because they loved you. As for secondary school, I have also had difficulty through those years, but because of my Asperger's and at that time in the late 90s, autism had no support in schools. People who bully have problems with their own lives and they try to take it out on others. They feel that if they put others down, it'll make them feel better, but it doesn't work that way. So they try to pick on people with differences whether it be because you're deaf or of your skin colour, hair colour, glasses, weight and others. They'll try to make it feel personal to you to try and hurt you, but them trying to hurt you is actually just about them and their issues. Also when people try to bully you because of your differences, it means that you're getting to them and that's when you know you're winning. Thank you for sharing your experiences.
This stuff is really interesting, I'd love to hear more. Did you have any special concessions at school regarding exams, or doing work because technically you're using your 2nd language? (I guess you'd say BSL is your first language but correct me if I'm wrong). It would also be interested to hear your experiences of how you navigate things like shops, appointments etc. Do you ever have an interpreter or does your mum do it?
i love ur channel soo much ❤️
greetings from the netherlands
Your doggie is so adorable:3 I love u and ur videos 🥰💗💗💗💗💗
Love u soooooo much jazzy
You are very lucky that your parents sent you to good mainstream school, good education and a good upbringing. My parents sent me to deaf boarding school from hell for 5 years. My parents neglected me throughout my childhood years. I went to 3 good hearing schools with deaf unit before they sent me away to boarding school that I didn’t want to go there. They abused me before they sent me away. I was subject to violent bullies, mentally and physically abuse and sadist Carer. My parents knew it but they don’t care. After I left school they continued to abuse me. So you are very lucky to have a decent upbringing and a good education that I never had. I was 20 years behind! Fortunately My 3 hearing children taught me a lot and I learned a lot from them made me happy again. I have a lot of good hearing friends taught me a lot too . Despite this I still have a scar of boarding school and years of abuse at home.
Hahshaha I think your dog is snoring at the end of the video
I did not know basic sign language in primary school 😭 I'm from the USA. The only time I learned sign language is when I joined Girl Scouts for a day and I learned my name. I wish i knew it, I'm hoping to take ASL classes soon
This was really interesting to watch, I had no idea you went to a mainstream school.
I’m bi lateral cochlear implanted now but wen I was younger I had hearing aids. I got really badly bullied for being deaf, I even got beaten up a few times. Primary school was the worst for me. I never got support. Secondary was a mix, good and bad, still got bullied but there were good days at times. College was the best for me. Rarely got bullied it was more of tormenting. I remember those old radio, god I hated them 😂 I’m off to uni this yr so I’m excited to see wat I will experience 👀
Btw I went mainstream
that boy from your secondary school seems so rude, I don't understand how people can act that. its so unnecessary and disrespectful. I'm glad you don't have to deal with being in chool with those ignorant people anymore!
Wow. What a journey you have! You turn out just fine. 👌🏻😊
I love your videos - keep up the good work but don't get burnt out.
My mainstream infant and primary school was in the early-mid 1970s and I got beaten up by the teacher (I was 6) who was determined to beat hearing into me and I got the cane (at 7) for not hearing a dinner lady.
Happy Days! Lol!
i wish I could understand sign launguage
Six deaf people in one class?! I’m the only HoH person in my whole school I believe and there’s nearly 2000 people there.
Disgusting how teachers try and force you to use a radio aid...it seems a common thing that hearing people would rather force someone to use an aid that provide reasonable adjustments
I'm deaf and when I came first time high school and I find out that all this school only hearing people and I'm only one who is deaf and for me it's hard when I'm now at 6 class I decided to change other school and still doesn't have any deaf people and yea 😅😅😅 I'm now at 9 class (sorry my English is bad I'm learning English)
I am so sorry that you had to go through people can be awful.
You forgot to say turn on captions!
Yesss primary school were the good dayssssssssss😭👌🏾
Enjoyed watching this! I hated wearing a hearing aid in 3rd grade but hearing aids never worked for me though. I don't mind wearing my right sided cochlear implant though.
I'm 42 and I have bilateral mod/profound loss, I think from genetic causes, since about 5 years ago. As such I never learnt ASL etc. I use part hearing aids and part lip reading to understand people. I have almost totally withdrawn from society because of this, and sometimes I think being totally deaf would be better, at least I wouldn't be able to understand any speech at all. But seeing people like you, who look happy and willing to share their story to anyone, is very inspiring. I am in the process of receiving my first Cochlear implant in about 3 months, hopefully I can start hearing people on the phone properly again, amongst many other things!
Sometimes best thing is adapting so learning ASL, using technology to use phone etc
Interesting you and me big different. When college I was brilliant with hearing people no problem. Deaf secondary school been bullie at me same thing not hearing world bullie. Both deaf and hearing can be bullie anything. My own flat neighbour all hearings people more respect for deaf to me
I used to wear the radio aids and I HATED them too 🤣 too much hassle and the people I went to school with weren't the nicest of people so it was easier for me to not wear it. I don't sign but I am profoundly deaf in both ears but I do love watching your videos 😊😊
I love you jasmine #earlyTeam ❤️❤️❤️
Soooo, somehow I got snubbed from ur channel 😥😥I just resubbed, I was wondering why I haven't seen ur vids on my timeline for over a week or so
This amazing life experience
1 min rill 8:00
can you talk about being in the workforce while deaf ?
Love your channel. Sorry cause you have to go through bullying at secondary school. I hate when people make fun of deaf people.
The 7 dislikes are people who don’t know what captions are
Awwww cute beautiful ur dog 😍😍😍😍
In mainstream school the teacher puts in the front of the class. So you can hear better and then leave you to get on with it. That is why I don't know sign
Also no one was interested in deaf people who have hard of hearing. Only peaple who cannot hear at all. A lot of hard of hearing people were treated as slow learners. Who just ignored the teachers.
Stress and being bullied can cause random health issues.
I wonder how it is in Sweden.. there was never any deaf students in my classes so don't know if deaf in mainstream school here gets an interpreter.
If they following basic human rights i imagine they would have interpreters as sweden isnt living in dark ages lol
My experience I used the old fasjion radio aid then the first phonak inspiro, then back to the old fashion then back to the inspiro but secondary used inspiro then roger and then a roger pen which I now use. Last year in May I got blue tooth hearing aids which don't need the receivers. I no longer need headphones for my phone or laptop.
Nice!
I know this video is old but news flash for 2021 Jazzy, there are 202,000+ people around the world that think it's absolutely amazing that you're deaf 🤟
For people that are complaining, and can’t use sign language, turn on the dang captions and you’ll be fine.
I wonder how deaf people see the world I wish I could talk sign language it is so cool it looks interesting
Hey jazzy what kinda music you into
❤️❤️
Can you make a video on what you should do about a POS friend?
You are amazing in so many ways!!!
Please dont use the filter, you are far to interesting to listen too, to be distracted.
More videos please xx
Hi Jazzy! One of my questions for the collab tomorrow was about this. 👍👂
When will u do meet and greet for free? I really want to meet u
Wow i can try and learn sign language better by watching you videos
0:12
*epic dubstep song*
Love you
You don’t have to sit front because if someone tall than you that mean I had to switch sit with my pals so it easy to me sit back because my high school has lots lots lots people in there
Interesting, l am suprised and didn't know that you worn that block hearing aids on your chest when you were little girl in around 1999, right?. Because it wasn't used anymore after 1993 and l wonder why NHS gave it to you. Anyway, your story is very similar to mine and your video is good :)
It sounds more like the system that they use now where teacher has a microphone and it connects to the box thing so you can hear what is being said. They still sell em now as i was told to use one lol
Question what is colitis? Don't know
I know BSL but I just put captions on
What can be done to stop bullying of deaf children in school? You went to a school with lots of deaf pupils, but it still happened. How can we help schools stop it and help deaf pupils? (P.s. sorry about the radio aid- those straps and wires were horrible!)
Sadly being bullied is common when different. Can provide awareness etc but kids are evil lol
@@ecologist_to_be It's probably the adults not teaching them otherwise because of internalized audism.
I don’t know if you’ve talked about this already but you had hearing aids to hear what teachers were telling you which means you could hear? Wouldn’t you also be able to speak? Idk if that’s a dumb question and I worded it really badly but I thought the reason why people in the deaf community were not able to speak (or at least one of the many reasons) was an inability to hear so they can’t speak because they’ve never heard language before
Jazzy can speak (so so) If you look through her channel she does a whole video on whether or not her family can understand her deaf voice
Emma Jones I’ve watched her videos before. I was just curious because I thought people who are deaf were unable to speak due to not being able to hear.
I'm not deaf just learning bsl so I'm not to sure but the way I understand it is a cochlear implant is made up of a few things a receiver which is what's implanted Into the bone in your head that receives codes, and a microphone/speech prosesser that hears the words interprates them and then sends signals to the implant in your brain I think it's down to what support they've had ie implants hearing aids ect and the severity of deafness weather they can talk or not most deaf people iv met have had a problem with tone because they've never hurd someone talk they've just hurd the words thro a radio in there head
@@lisalee3196 how is the ear connected to the voice
catplushies you learn language through repetition and hearing it being spoken. That’s why people who are deaf are unable to speak because some of them have never heard sound before. Or at least that’s my understanding but I could be wrong? Hence the question 😅
The grammatically correct title (just to help you improve your English) should be 'What It's Like Being Deaf In a Mainstream School.'
Do you know asl/see? Or just bsl? I always thought asl was universal???
@@hannah8470 thank you so much! I never knew that! I love all sign language it is AMAZING
Hi
ASMR
I know you are young but you must get asked for marriage a lot ?
If you use cringey tiktoks as a medium to share your trauma I’m probably not going to take it seriously
sorry i dont speak deaf
