In this paper, we analyze the characteristics of the English vocalization of deaf students and present the basic data for the development of personalized English learning aid tools that reflect its features. We visited hearing special schools in Seoul and Daegu and recorded English vocalization of the deaf students in order to analyze the characteristics of deaf students' English vocalization. We analyzed the data by Praat program, an professional voice analysis program. The voice features of deaf students' English vocalization were extracted and then compared with those of non-deaf students' English vocalization.
