A Little Bit About Me...

We like to teach in fun way not just conventional. If the student(s) have fun with they are learning, they are more likely to grasp and stick with it.
For about year now have been teaching ASL and Interpreting for 6 years. I always have a deaf person accompany for the class. The particular one I would bring was born deaf and has superb skills in speech therapy. Therefore, she can read lips and is an excellent and patient instructor as well. She has a perfect balance of the hearing world and the spoken language and the deaf/hard of hearing world. She has previously worked as a nanny for 9 years and is excellent with teaching children ASL as well.

Sign Language is one of my top subjects! Certification in American Sign Language and Deaf Studies

I was previously a dance instructor, and understand the basic principles of advancing within a certain skill. I have the patience and determination to yield results from a young educator. I currently hold a Bachelor's of Arts degree in Speech and Language Pathology. Through my undergraduate degree at the University of Iowa, I have learned about many speech disorders and the processes and basic understandings of changing behavior. Within speech and hearing I found a passion for American Sign Language. I became certified in American Sign Language and Deaf Studies at the university of Iowa and would like to pursue a career involving Sign Language.

Just recently, I worked with students in New Berlin, WI as part of the Junior Achivement program. While in High School and College, I worked with students in Madison at Whitehorse Middle School on Video Editing, PC Repair, Postmodernism, and Music. I have extensive skills in writing, grammar, spelling, public speaking, and knowledge in and of government--state and national/federal, specifically the Presidency.
I love teaching children and being able to see them learn. It is awesome to see and hear when they finally "get it" or when they understand something that I taught them. Moreover, when a student gives you an answer to a question and uses an example of something that you taught them earlier, it really shows you how quickly they can pick things up. My teaching "style" is very open--I will have an outline and while I am presenting I will sometimes ask for examples from the stude ... read more

I believe in mutual respect for intelligence and expect productive and active participation from the student in their pursuit. Depending on the student, I might engage them in an appropriate book about their topic, ask them to find a magazine/newspaper article, tell me a personal story to identify with what it is we are reading about. This would depend greatly on their assignment, writing/reading skills, and interest. I feel every high school student needs to feel their mentors are supportive and appreciate their efforts, so I work best when I feel I am a part of a larger team incorporating the student, their family and teacher.
I am 58 years old, raised 3 children while working as a legal secretary for 25 years. When my last boss retired, I decided to return to college and successfully graduated from DePaul University with a BA in Religious Studies Cum Laude with a minor in Cla ... read more

I like to teach children and people through experience, and play. I always want them to learn new things every day. Every child has their own style of learning. I will make sure that each person is able to understand what they have learned. I am very patient, easy going and active listener. I will make their learning experience as best as possible.
My desire to work with children and people, I am the people person. I love working with children, especially. I want to make a difference in them. I always love learn different languages. For instance, I learned Spanish for 2 and half years. I went to Costa Rica and became integrated in their culture, people and daily routine. Once I absorb all I can, then I always love to teach other people what I’ve learned. I have worked with 1st graders at Maryland School for the Deaf. Also, I have worked with the infant program and 2nd graders in Co ... read more
