“The Phonak has really helped me through grade 6 and into high school. Ever since I trialled the Phonak it's helped me so much with my troubles of background noise. I can focus more on what my teacher is saying rather than a whole bunch of noise. It's helped with tennis lessons too. I can hear the coach really clear and he doesn't have to repeat himself as often. I would definitely recommend this amazing technology”
