The aim of the project was to create TEDS Manual consisting of few parts: adaptation of the CEFRL A1 level to the specific needs of deaf and hearing impaired learners of English and two practical toolboxes for teaching and assessing English with D/HI students.

Those are free documents which can be used by mainstream or specialized English teachers. General Introduction gives explains what deafness is, what are the hearing loss consequences and gives some general and specific recommendations for English teachers working with D/HI learners. TEDS Teaching Toolbox presents recommendations and teaching techniques most effective and appropriate to this type of learners, including sample exercises. TEDS Assesment Toolbox presents recommendations and assessing techniques used while testing, followed by examples. Hearing Impaired CEFRL adaptation presents some useful comments written by specialized teachers who have experience in teaching D/HI students.
