I was an Instructional Assistant/SH for the Tulare County Office of Education (TCOE). I'm now an American Sign Language (ASL) interpreter, when needed. I worked for TCOE for over 17 years. I tutor people of all ages in math, English, music, ASL, and more! I am now a Direct Support Professional (DSP) for the developmentally disabled adults. I help with them in their homes and out locally. You can pretty much call me one of their careproviders. I do ASL interpreting every Sunday at my church, so I can't say I don't ever use my ASL. I first started learning ASL back in the 3rd grade, taking a class after school each day for the GATE (Gifted And Talented Education) students. I then took classes in college at College of the Sequoias to do the requirements to receive a RID certificate for interpreting. I'll be honest. My "students" from the past have told me that during the time when

I have spent the last two years in college and have gained my associates degree in ASL. I aspire to become a teacher of ASL at the high school level. I enjoy signing and aim to share my enjoyment with others learning the language. I don't pretend to be perfect at it nor will I expect others to be so. We all learn at different paces and different ways. This skill takes time just as much as any other. My instructors have encouraged me to push myself and learn as much as I can. I prefer to instruct by example. I found that with sign watching and repeating work best. I like to work with the person at their pace. Running through the material as fast as possible helps no one.

My experience ranges over a span of 22 years as a Preschool/Pre-K Teacher, Preschool Asst. Director, YMCA After School Site Director, After School Tutor, Elementary School Instructional Aide, Sign Language Interpreter, Special Ed. Tutor. I earned an AA degree in Liberal Studies, a certificate in Sign Language and earned a BA degree in Psychology. I have known since I was 5 years old that I wanted to teach and work with young children. I am most happy in a classroom atmosphere and believe children learn best through variety of techniques and mediums. My philosophy has and continues to be that all things are possible with a good education and that learning occurs best when given many types of hands on (Discovery) experiences and a positive learning environment. My goal is to have a positive impact on my students both educationally and in their self-confidence.
