Owner and Founder of Signing Autistic Lives.Signing Autistic Lives provides American Sign Language (ASL) instruction to facilitate communication and improve quality of life for autistic children and their families in Northeast Florida and Southeast Georgia. Sign language can be an empowering tool for creating genuine communication and providing a transition to spoken language for many autistic individuals. Signing can significantly reduce frustration and improve daily life for everyone in the child’s circle. Our program is tailored to your family’s needs and routines. If getting ready for school generally prompts a tantrum, for example, we’ll work to make that activity smoother and enable your child to communicate what he’s thinking and feeling. We break down the basics of American sign Language in a unique approach that allows parents to begin signing immediately and create communi

I have been signing since 1994. Enrolled in college to receive an AA in American Sign Language, and will be continuing my education towards a Sign Language Interpreter Certification. I started signing in 1994 when I met a deaf woman and her friend at my job. A few days later she came back and handed me a "Sign Language for Beginners" book. After many years of Deaf Clubs, Deaf Functions, and friends. Since 2003 I have been helping any deaf/hearing impaired people when they need help with communicating with what they call "Hearing" people. The deaf culture is very different and very interesting. I am now enrolled in college to get my degree in American Sign Language, then to get certified as a Sign Language Interpreter. I try to keep away from the Sign Language books, It's hard to learn from a cartoon drawing or a picture with arrows showing the direction to move your hands. Sign Language

I began teaching in 1998. My previous job was taken away by forces of nature. I had taken advantage of the Military Troops to Teachers Program with no clear pathway to practice. Until I found myself with a possibility of unemployment. I I applied at a correctional facility and I was hired over the next week. Hence my introduction to the classroom and the world of academia. Over the next five years I was fortunate enough to teach both classroom and computer lab, loving the challenges and accomplishments more and more everyday. My students were adult learners whom appreciated accomplishing life goals. I continued educating over the next seven years with results that were uplifting and inspirational. Teaching requires a heart. My teaching style is a type of facilitator approach. I realize the with every classroom there is middle level of learners the same as lower and higher achiever

Working with children is truly my passion in life. My teaching style shows that I will have unlimited patience with a student that wants to learn, and shows that by giving it all they can. I notice that most students are this way, and they reap the benefits of their knowledge acquisition.

I am certified to teach Birth-third grade in the state of Florida and Birth-second grade in NY.

While working with diverse deaf/hh and hearing students I have come to realize that every student is different. In realizing that, I know that no two students can be taught the same way. Two skills that I have developed and feel are crucial when working with students are patience and creativity. Since graduating, I have taught at the Katzenbach School for the Deaf as well as the Florida School for the Deaf. I am currently teaching Physical Science and Language Arts to 8th graders at FSDB. In addition, I work after school in the recreation department where I facilitate activities for students of all age levels. I have tutored students in Math, Reading, Language Arts, and Science.

I truly enjoy working with children and realize each child has a unique way of learning. Tutoring allows this one-on-one contact to discover how each child learns best. My teaching style focuses on improving a child’s memory and understanding of subjects. I like to alternate subject examples with practice to develop the student’s problem-solving strategies. I also help the student connect abstract concepts with things they can relate to in their own life. I use a lot of positive reinforcement and encouragement. To promote long term understanding I ask the student questions to encourage the student’s explanation to foster a deeper understanding of concepts. My teaching degree is in Special Education with certification to teach Elementary School and children with Learning Disabilities. I’ve worked with children and teens in schools, teaching reading to adults, and art education to b

I adore teaching. My teaching style is based on support, encouragement, and positive approach. I beleive that a caring educator can make a huge difference in one child's life. All children are different, but all of them are capable to learn and become achievers. Understanding of child's individual needs can provide an effective path towards his or her success in learning. I have earned BA & MA in English as a second(foreign) language. Age of my students varied from 6years old through 60+. I have been teaching at Elementary and Secondary schools, and also at the universities in this country and abroad (Ukraine, Saudi Arabia).
