Hi Eric.
It is by will of Allah, praise be to Him.
Otherwise I don't remember how I learnt the spelling without the use of the sound, but I do remember something.
When I was kid, I was given cochlear aid surgery as I am suffering from profund deafness, since that day. I was introduced to speech theraphy. Many times I used to go to the therapy, but because I was little boy, i was very stubborn and refused to practice speech.
I was fond of computers, so I have used it for long time, and I learnt English through it, like surfing through Internet, video games and movies. Still I do have weakness in my English skills.
