Deaf education is the education of students with various hearing levels in a way that addresses the students' individual differences and needs. Ideally, this process involves the individually planned and systematically monitored arrangement of teaching procedures, adapted equipment and materials, accessible settings, and other interventions designed to help learners of various hearing levels achieve a higher level of personal self-sufficiency, and success in school and community than would be available if the students were only given access to a typical classroom education. With a long time of trying to improve Deaf Education, many countries focus on training teachers for deaf students, take lots of approaches to achieve the expected level of this particular education, and they also try to build associations to protect deaf students. Even though we are still facing many issues about Deaf Education in this world, but no country stops contributing themselves on this needed education.

Famous quotes containing the words deaf and/or education:
“I will be deaf to pleading and excuses.
Nor tears nor prayers shall purchase out abuses.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“There comes a time in every man’s education when he arrives at the conviction that envy is ignorance; that imitation is suicide; that he must take himself for better for worse as his portion; that though the wide universe is full of good, no kernel of nourishing corn can come to him but through his toil bestowed on that plot of ground which is given him to till.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
