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 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.
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.

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.

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 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.
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.

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

A Little Bit About Me...

I'm currently attending American Military University, with less than a year to graduate with a bachelor degree in Public Health, which allows me to have a better understanding in health science related subjects. I have learned extensive grammatical skills due to writing research papers. In addition I have experience in teaching, coaching and mentoring soldiers in the United States Army as a squad leader.
Each child learns in different ways, and as a Tudor/teacher it is my responsibility to discover the method of teaching that matches a child’s way of learning. I am patient, understanding and provide a constructive approach to learning. All children have the potential of learning; some simply require a different method and approach to grasp the information and it is my duty to provide such approach.

More About This Tutor...

I love students of all ages. I believe all students are capable of learning. My teaching style derives from hands-on learning and thinking out side of the box. I believe all students learn differently and as an educator I have to identify and find out what kind of learner each student is. I enjoy working with manipulatives and bringing in real world examples in order for students to achieve.
I am a certified teacher K-6 grade. I am very motivated and eager to teach. I have earned a Bachelors Degree in Business Administration and have almost completed my MBA Degree with Everest University. I have taught 3rd and 4th grade Reading and Writing and my students achieved a level of 95% Reading and Writing gains. I have tutored previously with 21st Century after school tutoring in Reading, Writing, Math, and Science. I would be an asset to this organization if considered.
