This is another area where trying to hear may be difficult. Work to find a seat close to the front if you are in a meeting or seminar. That way the speaker’s voice can be heard and you will not miss any important facts. Also, if there is a question and answer session, don’t be afraid to ask for clarification on something that was confusing.
In small groups I try to sit near the leader or teacher. I attend Sunday school class and I always sit as close to the teacher as possible. It makes the class so much more interesting. Remember though that although everyone may know you have a hearing problem there may be an occasional person who ignores your handicap. I have a lady in my class who begins talking whenever she feels like it and continues to talk after the lesson begins again. It is frustrating and way too challenging to hear the teacher. Other members have also noted the same problem and they are not hearing impaired so some people will just ignore you and you will have to make the best of the situation.
