Sign Language is one of my top subjects! I took two years in high school and have taken 2+ years of college coursework. I have taught various people how to sign, from personal friends to the children of personal friend, as well as college students and other special circumstances. I have a passion for the language and love teaching others the skill for future use.
I begin with fingerspelling and numbers, move to basic signs used around the house and in casual introductory level conversations, and finally progress to more detail oriented conversations. Every student learns differently and I will adjust the teaching method to what is the most appropriate for that specific person.
