\nIntensive rehabilitation training and counselling in Bishkek<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

It was not my first trip to Bishkek, but it was very important for me to meet all the specialists, teachers, parents and children with whom I had regular Online contact over the last couple of months.\u00a0 It was three days of hard work, but very rewarding.<\/p>\n

For the first time I held a seminar for specialists from schools for the deaf and hearing impaired children, a target group of professionals who had practically no knowledge about cochlear implants.<\/p>\n

Using the example of our centre in St. Petersburg, I demonstrated to these specialists that it is possible to change the negative impact of a severe hearing loss by providing powerful hearing aids and \/ or cochlear implants accompanied by adequate professional rehabilitation.\u00a0 We discussed various options on how to expand their activities and thus facilitate inclusion of deaf children into the world of hearing.\u00a0 Unfortunately, the majority of the seminar participants were not really interested in the topic of the development of auditory perception and preferred to get practical tips on the development of speech.\u00a0 They did not realize that these advanced technologies also rely on auditory perception in our work.\u00a0 However, some of the teachers were inspired by the opportunity to change something in their work.<\/p>\n

I also had a very individual consultation for Marzhana, a little 6-year-old girl.\u00a0 She has been wearing hearing aids for two months and she can understand and express some words in Kyrgyz.\u00a0 However, the phonemic test showed insufficient discrimination of high-frequency speech sounds.\u00a0 The hearing aids are classified as suitable for severe hearing loss, and we considered the possibility of suboptimal fitting.\u00a0 However, there is high risk that her hearing might deteriorate.\u00a0\u00a0 The girl is very inquisitive, active, keeps her attention well and tries to repeat everything what the teacher does \/ says.\u00a0 She did an excellent job with the logic task (to decompose a series of pictures of 3 and of 4).\u00a0 She understood the \u201cplot\u201d, repeated it after the teacher, and having listened to the whole story, she understood and showed pictures fitting for some phrases.\u00a0 I recommended cochlear implantation as we can expect the dynamics to be much faster, the development of speech to be more successful.<\/p>\n

In the National Center of Maternity and Childhood Care \u2013 partner in two projects \u201cClinic partnership\u201d with the GIZ (Deutsche Gesellschaft f\u00fcr Internationale Zusammenarbeit) and where cochlear implantation surgeries took place over the last couple of years \u2013 the German Embassy funded the equipment of two rooms with the necessary tools and furniture.\u00a0 During my stay in Bishkek, Torge Matthiesen from the German Embassy came to open the rooms together with the ENT doctors of the clinic and the president of the International Association of Hearing Rehabilitation Specialists Anastasia Naimanova.\u00a0 My \u201ccontribution\u201d was two suitcases of manuals, books, games and toys which I brought from St. Petersburg (sponsored by the German Embassy).<\/p>\n

We conducted nine diagnostic sessions with children from a second group of children, who receive intensive training.\u00a0 We made video recordings of these lessons to help analysing the pedagogical techniques and methods.\u00a0 Three local specialists (the teachers of the intensive course) – Anastasia Naimanova (teacher for deaf children), Irina Karamurzina (speech therapist) and Veronika Belozerova (speech therapist) \u2013 attended these sessions.<\/p>\n

We also organized fittings of speech processors for three children (Marsel, Ayar, Dayan) together with Dr. Shirin Zhumabaeva and Luisa Mirgijazova.<\/p>\n

One day later I held a seminar for specialists “What makes a teacher a professional: the secrets of diagnostics and the possibilities of universal didactic games” (five lesson hours).\u00a0 This seminar was held simultaneously offline and in zoom.\u00a0 It was very well attended (40 participants) and many teachers gave very positive feedback.<\/p>\n

We had excellent discussions with Dmitrij and Svetlana Zaiyka (experts in the field of technical support and rehabilitation from Kiev) and teachers of the Parents Association \u201cHear Together\u201d.<\/p>\n

With the team of NCMCC we agreed to meet online regularly to discuss various documents (course plans, extracts, recommendations for parents and specialists) in detail.<\/p>\n

Finally, I was very pleased to meet \u201cmy little students\u201d Bata, Chingiz and Havsanur \u2013 whom I have known for quite some time and whom I taught locally and Online during the last four years, since 2017.\u00a0 I was delighted by their positive development:\u00a0 they speak fluently and understand speech very well.\u00a0 Now they are attending regular schools.<\/p>\n

This trip was very intensive and required a lot of energy.\u00a0 But it was more than worthwhile; we have achieved a lot with the local team, and I am determined to come back in the not-too-distant future.\u00a0 I would like to add that this trip was fully supported by the Lehnhardt Foundation, and I would like to thank Monika Lehnhardt-Goriany for this.<\/p>\n
