Sign Language is one of my top subjects! I am hard of hearing and I have used American Sign Language my whole life. ASL is my second language, used when I attended school and when I hung out with friends. I went to a school that offered ASL as a class and I took three years of ASL, skipping the first year. I was in the American Sign Language honor society and I graduated with the Laurent Clerc medallion. I signed the National anthem at school football games, and at my own graduation with a couple of other students as well. While in the honor society, I was required to go to an event and sign there, I signed a couple of shows at the Florida Aquarium.

I am hard of hearing with about fifteen years of sign language experience. American Sign Language is my second language, and I use it everyday. I can help tutor any level of ASL. Although I learned sign language when I was young, my high school offered ASL and I took the class. I skipped ASL 1 since I am already experienced in the language. My senior year of high school, I was in ASL 4 and we were combined with ASL 1 to help tutor and teach. It was a great experience to help those who wanted to learn the language but also influenced me more to become a teacher, which I am now attending school for a BA in Elementary Education. I was in the American Sign Language Honor Society as well, signing at football games and various activities inside school as well as outside of school. One of my favorite memories of signing is when I signed a couple of shows at the Florida Aquarium. The exhibits th ... read more

Sign Language is one of my top subjects! Both of my parents are deaf, I have been using ASL since the age of 1. I am now 20 years old and completely fluent in the language.

I prefer face to face teaching sessions but I can be flexible. To start of I like to see what the student may already know about the language. From there we will practice new material and once the student feels comfortable with the newly learned signs I will then have them attempt at having a conversation using the signs. This is so they can practice using the signs as well as receiving and comprehending the signs.
I have been the designated interpreter for my mother and father who are both deaf for well over a decade. Throughout my years I have helped interpret for those in need at various events such as school, church, doctors appointments, and social events. To further my knowledge of the language I have taken ASL courses 1-3 at the University Of Central Florida.

Sign Language is one of my top subjects! I'm working on becoming an interpreter; because I'm not an interpreter yet I do not consider my self an expert. I've participated in several Deaf Culture events. I completed all of my ASL classes at the University of Florida under a deaf professor. Although I graduated with a B.A in Linguistics I was very involved in ASL, and will continue to be in my graduate program as a Speech Pathologist and future Audiologist.

Speech therapy observation, Norton Elementary. Gainesville, FL October 2011- February 2012 • Observed on October 2011-Febuary 2012 for two hours each visit • Assisted the speech pathologist to keep deaf and hard-of-hearing children focused • Participated in their daily speech exercises Deaf Story-telling Festival, Pentecostal Church. Gainesville, FL May 2011-May2012 • Took part in observing Deaf story-telling from several Deaf participants • Participated in group activities with Deaf participants • Conversed with several Deaf participants about their stories
I'm personally a visual learner so I tend to teach the same way I learned. I think repetition is important when learning and retaining ASL.

My comments on tutoring Sign Language : I have taken 2 semesters of ASL at the college level and frequently interact with the local Deaf community in Lakeland, FL.

I have tutored 1 student privately in Spanish for 2 years, and she went from failing her class to passing both the AP and IB exams with a 5 and a 6, respectively. I have also tutored small groups in Spanish for one semester ranging from high school introductory level to AP level. I have also tutored for one semester of ASL at the college level, and one semester of Japanese at the high school introductory level.
I aim for all tutoring to be done in the target language, but I recognize that this is unhelpful for many students. Nevertheless, I will start out only using the target language, but will switch to the students' preferred language upon request.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been tutoring for many years and enjoy teaching students. The ability of each student varies depending on the need of each student and if the student has a disability. I have created many treatment plans and lesson plans for the children that I work with in which much success is gained with the students in the classroom. I have the ability to use sign language widens my tutoring ability and the students that I can teach.

My comments on tutoring Sign Language : I am Deaf and American Sign Language (ASL) is my primary language while spoken/written English is my secondary language. I am able to teach you the sign and interact with you to be able to learn ASL in faster pace than just learning from the book. ASL is a beautiful language, no doubt about that.

I'm a freelance web and graphic designer and currently contract with a few companies such as Attractionseeker, ASLpolis, and a few other agency. I have been freelancing for 5 years and currently seeking full time employment at creative agency in Cincinnati, OH. Aside from freelancing, I am currently a president of North Central Deaf Club and provide rich experience of using ASL and aim to provide positive experience for everyone who is Deaf, hard of hearing, or hearing regardless of their experience with ASL.
I provide hands on teaching than giving a lecture. I feel that people will benefit more when it is hands on.

Sign Language is one of my top subjects! I have four years experience in American Sign Language interpretation and I'm very knowledgeable about ASL vocabulary, grammar, slang, idioms, and how to teach them in an understandable way. I fellowship with the Deaf every week so I know the current signs used in daily conversation.

Adjustable depending on the client/student's needs. Can be simplistic yet extremely effective in ensuring language acquisition.
I've been studying American Sign Language (ASL) for over five years. I've taught ASL multiple times at community and church classes with great language success. I have snout four years of ASL interpretation experience ranging from church services to classroom settings to events to guided tours and more.

First, I try to find our the ways that the child learns best. I also want to know the student's interests. I test the child to see the level that the child can be successful. I start on a level that the child will realize that they can learn. Many forms of teaching is used so to facilitate faster learning and to provide interesting activities. This may include: flashcards,games and use of computers. An attempt to use a variety of material to help the child to adapt to various types of lesson in the school setting. I am willing to try anything that will facilitate the child progressing as quickly as possible. I like to communicate with the family with suggestion of how to help their child at home.
I have a BS degree and MS degree in Elementary Education with an emphisis in Reading. I have taught all grades from first through sixth and also remedial reading in grades nine t ... read more
