The traditional auditory/oral approach trains the hearing impaired child to acquire language through speechreading (lipreading), augmented by the use of residual hearing, and sometimes vibro-tactile cues. The auditory-verbal approach (also called unisensory or acoupedic method) teaches children to process language through amplified residual hearing, so that language is learned through auditory channels.
