"This is simply perfect for the beginner who wants to "stretch" his/her listening skill, as well as someone who is a long time CI recipient who wants to keep pushing for more difficult listening practice." - Carol, Nucleus Freedom Recipient "My first usage of the Telephone Training Program was a reality check. I thought that I heard everything, but when I went online and read what was spoken over the phone, I realized my dire need for practice. I tried different programs and settings until I found the one that gave me the best performance." - Kare, Nucleus Freedom Bilateral recipient |
