Simultaneous Communication, or Sim-Com happens when someone speaks and signs at the same time, following English word order. An individual [a teacher, in some cases] who hears, can effectively use this method to communicate with someone who does not hear. This helps in providing the auditory and visual forms of language, simultaneously, so that the receiving individual would have the communication tools available to learn complete language. Certain reports have shown that teachers who used this method in some areas in Australia, were over 90% accurate in reproducing on their hands what they were saying.
