It’s that time again. Cue sharpening pencils, chatting students, and hallway buzz. For both teachers and parents, especially those who struggle to hear speech in loud settings, fall can become an auditory whirlwind as students return to school. At LIZN, we believe hearing wellness deserves a front-row seat in every classroom. Whether you’re the educator leading the lesson or a busy parent fighting through the noise, here is how LIZN can help.
What makes it hard to hear in the classroom?
Classrooms can make it difficult for anyone to hear clearly. Today’s classrooms often have 20-30 students speaking, hard surfaces for sounds to bounce off of, and tech tools humming and beeping in the background. For those who have trouble comprehending speech in noise due to mild hearing loss, this can create an extremely draining and confusing classroom environment. Teachers and parents may miss out on things students say, misunderstand them, or even feel more stressed when trying to recall information. You are not alone. This isn’t just “getting older”, it’s your ears and cognitive health searching for a solution.

Back-to-School, but Make It Hearing-Healthy
Protecting your hearing helps you stay engaged, energized, and ready to take on the day as a parent or an educator. Intervening in mild hearing loss can also have longer-term wellness benefits, like improved cognitive function, better pulse on hearing health, and a better mood.
