Do you use hearing aids? Discover how to improve your daily life in class

Studying with hearing loss can present additional challenges, especially in noisy environments, large classes, or during presentations. But what you might not know is that there are accessories specifically designed to help you hear better and fully participate in school life.
In this post, we’ll tell you what options are available to you as a student and how they can support your day-to-day experience at university, high school, or any educational setting.
What are hearing accessories?
Hearing accessories are devices that enhance hearing in specific situations, such as a class, a tutoring session, or a multimedia presentation. They don’t replace your hearing aid or cochlear implant, but rather complement it by transmitting sound more clearly and directly.
Accessories you can use in class
Here’s a summary of the main solutions available:
Microphones and transmitters: from the teacher to you
- Roger Touchscreen Mic
A microphone worn by the teacher or placed on the desk. It clearly picks up their voice, even if they move around the classroom, and transmits it directly to you. Ideal for class.
- Roger Multimedia Hub
Connects to computers, projectors, or screens. Allows you to hear videos, audios, or multimedia presentations clearly and without interference.
Receivers: how the sound gets to your hearing aid or implant
- Roger 17 / 20 / 21
If you use a cochlear implant (from brands like Cochlear, MED-EL, or Advanced Bionics), these receivers connect directly to your device. They transmit sound with high quality and no delay.
- Roger X
This receiver connects directly to your hearing aid or processor’s audio input. It's highly versatile and compatible with many models.
How can these help you?
- They let you keep up in class effortlessly.
- You can hear clearly even with background noise or when the teacher is far away.
- The technology already exists—you just have to make use of it.
What can you do now?
If you're interested in improving your classroom experience with technical aids, we recommend first speaking with your school or the relevant department to explore available options. It's also important to consult your audiologist to make sure your hearing aid or implant is compatible with these accessories. At Claso Audiología we're here to help: we can advise you, find the best solution for your needs, and support you throughout the process.
Remember: Studying with hearing loss shouldn’t be a barrier. The tools exist, they work, and they are designed for you.
