Years ago, that’s what happened to me. My life was completely changed because a simple

three-word phrase was delivered at the right time in just the right way.

When I was 3 years old, my parents discovered I was totally deaf. After asking many educational

specialists, doctors, psychologists, and parents of other deaf children, they decided to put me in a “mainstream”

school. All of my classmates and teachers would have normal hearing.

From the time I started going there in the third grade, I was the only deaf child at Blue Creek

Elementary School in the small, quiet town of Latham, New York. From almost the first day there,

the other kids made fun of me and called me names mainly because of my hearing aid and the way I talked.

I worried throughout elementary school because, besides the problems of “fitting in” with the

other students, I also struggled with most of my schoolwork.

Although I seemed outgoing, my self-esteem was quite low. I saw myself as an ugly kid wearing

a strange-looking box around his neck who wasn’t even smart enough to keep up with the other kids.

Mrs Jordan, my fifth-grade teacher, changed all of that with a simple three-word phrase. Mrs.

Jordan was a large woman with a voice that bounced (反弹) off the walls of her tiny classroom.

One moring, she asked the class a question, I read her lips and immediately raised my hand. For

once I knew the answer. But, when she called on me, I was afraid. I took a deep breath and nervously answered Mrs. Jordan’s question.

I will never forget what happened next.

Mrs Jordan pointed directly at me. With sparkling eyes and a wide smile she cried: “THAT’S RIGHT. STEPHEN!”

For the first time in my young life, I was an instant star. My confidence soared like never K12教育资源学习用资料

I decided right then and there that I would make a place for myself in this world. No matter how

many difficulties I might meet in life, I knew I could overcome them. A simple three-word phrase

delivered with incredible enthusiasm (热情)
